2015 P Roosevelt Dimes : Silver Reverse Proof Silver Composition

It is unfortunate although still a pretty dime, the coin machine took some toll on it. But still tickled.

Very worn dies on this, both ob. & rev. Notice all those outward striation lines? Sure sign of die deterioration. Looks like a couple of die chips on the torch also. Another sign of DD.

 

Yes, someone’s pocket a while.

 

I think only the 'S' & 'W' are silver for 2015. Check your Redbook.

 

It’s just the reverse.

 

The 2015-P "Reverse Proof" Roosevelt Dime is the first reverse proof dime ever made for the Roosevelt dime series. This coin was produced as part of a 3-coin "March of the Dimes" set to commemorate the 75th anniversary of the March of Dimes Foundation - which was founded by President Franklin D. Roosevelt. The 3-coin set included a Proof Silver Dollar - 2015-P Reverse Proof Dime & 2015-W Proof Dime.
There is more if you want to read up on it. Thanks.

 

Not silver or reverse proof the last time Philly dimes were silver proofs was 1964 so impossible for yours to be silver.Your coin is a normal business strike 2015 P roosevelt dime copper&nickel composition minted with worn out dies,still 10 cents.

 

I don’t understand this one. I’m not sure how to understand this one. But hey I trust you!

 

I need a new book.

 

Your right my eyes must've skipped over Philly and just saw the(S)&(W).But as I stated above your coin isn't silver or the reverse proof version,just a normal business strike.

 

Dang!!! Lol! I’m getting better! Lol! Thank you!

 

Lol!

 

Great find!!
hehe that 2015 W is probably my prettiest dime of all

 

Not a reverse proof but definitely a business strike. In other words, it’s normal and worth 10 cents. Hehehe

 

It's silver so about $2 melt value It's a shame such a nice and rare (fewer then 75k minted) ended up in circulation

 

What makes you think it's silver? @PamR do you see copper on the edge?

 

@PamR did you think "Reverse Proof" meant only the reverse was proof?

 

That’s obvious isn’t it?

The 2015-P "Reverse Proof" Roosevelt Dime is the first reverse proof dime ever made for the Roosevelt dime series. This coin was produced as part of a 3-coin "March of the Dimes" set to commemorate the 75th anniversary of the March of Dimes Foundation - which was founded by President Franklin D. Roosevelt. The 3-coin set included a Proof Silver Dollar - 2015-P Reverse Proof Dime & 2015-W Proof Dime.

The reverse proof was produced at the Philadelphia Mint using a highly innovative and technologically advanced minting process - which resulted in a coin with a frosty satin background field (like normal uncirculated dimes) but the details and designs have brilliant mirror-like features. This dime is also contains 90% silver. Only 75000 sets were authorized to be produced and originally sold for $61.95 starting on May 4 2015. This set is wildly popular and was completely sold out only days after it become available to the public.
