Description

Beginning in 2019, these Silver Proof Roosevelt Dimes are struck in .999 silver, rather than .900, which the Mint no longer uses.

Obverse

The design features Roosevelt’s left-facing bust with the inscriptions LIBERTY, IN GOD WE TRUST, and the year.

Franklin Delano Roosevelt (1882–1945), commonly known as FDR, was an American statesman and political leader who served as the 32nd President of the United States from 1933 to 1945. A Democrat, he won a record four presidential elections and dominated his party for many years as a central figure in world events during the mid-20th century, leading the United States during a time of worldwide economic depression and total war.

Reverse

Displays a torch signifying liberty with an olive branch on the left signifying peace and an oak branch on the right signifying strength and independence. Inscriptions are UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, E PLURIBUS UNUM, and ONE DIME.

E Pluribus Unum — Latin for "Out of many, one" — is a phrase on the Seal of the United States. Never codified by law, E Pluribus Unum was considered a de facto motto of the United States until 1956 when the United States Congress passed an act (H. J. Resolution 396), adopting "In God We Trust" as the official motto.
