The Roosevelt Dime Roll 1985-S Proof is a remarkable collection that showcases the enduring legacy of one of America’s most beloved coin series. Introduced in 1946 to honor President Franklin D. Roosevelt, who passed away in that year, the Roosevelt dime has become an iconic representation of American numismatics. The 1985-S edition stands out not only for its historical significance but also for its artistry and the craftsmanship of its minting. The series has been popular among collectors due to its connection to a pivotal era in American history, as well as its elegant design.
The design of the 1985-S Proof dime is consistent with the original motif crafted by John R. Sinnock, who designed the coin to commemorate Roosevelt’s legacy. The obverse side features a detailed and dignified portrait of Franklin D. Roosevelt, showcasing his characteristic features, including his prominent glasses and serious expression. Sinnock’s attention to detail is evident, and the coin's surface exhibits a frosted finish that contrasts beautifully with the mirror-like background. This aesthetic quality elevates the coin’s appeal, making it a prized possession for collectors who appreciate numismatic art.
