Owner's Description

In 1960, the Denver Mint produced about 200 million Roosevelt dimes, making among the top ten most minted date. And millions of mint state examples survive due to the high mintage. Grades at MS 67 and above are much less common.

This dime is bright white with great luster and eye-appeal on both sides. It also has a great strike and fine details with no significant hairlines or spread in any of the lettering.

The torch strike is good, however the lower band line is only 50% complete. There is one significant contact mark in Roosevelt's hair, however this coin is appropriately graded at MS 67.

Overall this is a very nice dime for the collection. A really good-looking coin.
