Description

The 1982 (P) Roosevelt Dime - No Mintmark - Strong was struck at the Philadelphia Mint as a dime in the Roosevelt Dimes Clad and Silver Proof 1965 to Date series. The U.S. Mint struck 519.5 million 1982 dimes at Philadelphia in all; how many left the press without a P mintmark is not recorded. The obverse features Franklin D. Roosevelt facing left, honoring the president who championed the March of Dimes and the reverse displays a torch flanked by olive and oak branches, symbolizing liberty, peace, and strength. Struck after the transition from silver to clad coinage, as the Mint adapted to modern production methods and record-breaking mintages. Coined at the Philadelphia facility, the nation's original mint that has operated continuously since its 1792 founding. Struck in 75% copper, 25% nickel over a pure copper center, weighing 2.27 grams, 17.9 mm in diameter, with a reeded edge. Cataloged as PCGS #5162.
