Additional Description: These U.S. silver dimes from 1959, 1960, and 1961 represent a mid-century chapter in the enduring Roosevelt series, which began in 1946 and continued unchanged in design for decades. Struck in 90% silver, these coins were minted during a period of postwar economic expansion and relative monetary stability, just a few years before the U.S. would transition to base-metal coinage in response to rising silver prices. Together, they provide a glimpse into the last phase of circulating silver coinage in everyday American commerce.
