Description: 1953-S Roosevelt Dime 90% SILVER Gem BU Brilliant Uncirculated Bright White Shiny “A VERY SCARCE DATE!!!!!CHOICE UNCIRCULATED Coins like this have become very scarce. Untold thousands of rolls have been melted for their silver content over the past 71 years. Authorized by the Coinage Act of 1792, the dime is the smallest and thinnest coin in all of the US coins minted. Before the dime became official, there was a strong desire for a smaller denomination of the US dollar. The Seated Liberty dime was the first dime to contain 90% silver in its alloy structure; before that, the dime's silver content was slight below the 90% line. The Roosevelt dime is the most current design in US coinage. Its predecessors contain a list of draped bust dimes, capped bust dimes, Seated Liberty dimes, the Barber dime, which was named after the Chief Engraver of the US Mint, and the Mercury dime. President Franklin Roosevelt passed away in 1945 and sooner after, a legislation was introduced to update the dime's design and feature the beloved late president.
