The 1996 Roosevelt Dime is a piece of US currency, minted in honor of President Franklin D. Roosevelt.
It's part of the dime series issued since 1946, a year after Roosevelt's passing.
While common, certain mint errors or high-grade conditions can increase a dime's value.
Key factors: mint mark location, metal composition, and the coin's condition.
The 1996-W dime, a special edition, is particularly sought after by collectors.
Only 1.457 million 1996-W dimes were minted, making them rarer than regular issues.
Uncirculated or proof dimes can fetch higher prices, especially in pristine condition.

To determine value, consult a coin dealer or use a reputable coin grading service.
Remember, sentimental value can outweigh monetary worth for collectors.
