1952 Silver Roosevelt Dime NGC PF67 $298
This exceptional 1952 Silver Roosevelt Dime is a stunning example of mid-century numismatic craftsmanship, certified by NGC as PF67. Struck at the Philadelphia Mint with a total proof mintage of only 81,980, this coin represents a high-tier grade that showcases nearly flawless surfaces and a brilliant, mirror-like luster characteristic of the era's proof strikes. The reverse design features the iconic torch flanked by olive and oak branches, symbolizing liberty, peace, and victory, all rendered with sharp, crisp details that are highly preserved in this Superb Gem condition. Composed of 90% silver and 10% copper, this piece is housed in a secure NGC holder that guarantees its authenticity and grade. Priced at $298, it offers a significant opportunity for collectors seeking a high-grade early proof Roosevelt dime with excellent eye appeal and strong historical value.
Condition: This 1952 Roosevelt Dime is in superb Proof 67 (PF67) condition, indicating it is a highly preserved specimen with minimal surface marks and exceptional eye appeal. As a proof coin from the Philadelphia Mint, it was struck using specially polished dies and planchets, resulting in sharp, well-defined details on the torch, olive branch, and oak branch. The metal content consists of 90% silver and 10% copper, typical for dimes of this era before the transition to clad compositions in 1965. Historically, this coin belongs to the early years of the Roosevelt Dime series, which was introduced in 1946 to honor President Franklin D. Roosevelt's legacy and his support for the March of Dimes. Collector value for a PF67 grade is significant, though the listed price of $298 is substantially higher than the current market retail average, which typically sits closer to $100-$150 for this specific grade and year. The strike type is a Proof strike, characterized by mirror-like fields and frosted devices, and the grading is officially certified by NGC (Numismatic Guaranty Company).
