The 1963 Roosevelt Dime isn’t very impressive on it’s own. The value for a high grade (MS-63) coin is only about three times the silver value (as of 12/07/21). The real treasure to be hunted here is a double die error on the reverse. The 1963 dime without a mintmark and the double die error will make this coin worth about $25. That’s very attainable for most investors. 1964 sees a similar double die error that raises the asking price for a MS-63 coin to $100.
