About This Coin
The 1994 Roosevelt Dime is a United States dime from the Roosevelt Dimes Clad and Silver Proof 1965 to Date series. In 1994, the Philadelphia, Denver, and San Francisco Mints struck 2,495,538,033 Roosevelt dimes, including 3,269,923 proofs. 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. Struck in 75% copper, 25% nickel over a pure copper center, 17.9 mm in diameter, with a reeded edge. Across its variants, estimated values range from $0 to $15 depending on mint mark, grade, and strike type. A notable auction result reached $719 in PR70 grade at Heritage Auctions. Designed by John R. Sinnock.
