500 Circulated Silver Dimes in the Roosevelt $50 Face Bag
A bag of $50 face value Roosevelt dimes contains 500 circulated U.S. Mint dimes in .900 fine silver, holding 35.75 troy ounces of silver in total. The dates are random within the 1946 to 1964 silver period, and the coins may come from the Philadelphia, Denver or San Francisco mints. Circulated means the coins show normal wear from use.
From the March of Dimes to the 1965 Change
The dime was chosen to honor Franklin D. Roosevelt because of his connection to the March of Dimes, and his portrait by John R. Sinnock first appeared on it in 1946. From 1946 through 1964 the coin was 90% silver and 10% copper. After the Coinage Act of 1965, new dimes were made of copper and nickel instead, so silver dimes gradually left circulation. Each pre-1965 Roosevelt dime holds about 0.0715 troy ounces of silver.
