  • How to Collect Coins a Fun, Useful, and Educational Guide to the Hobby
    $4.95 Valuable Tips & Information! LITTLETON’S HOW TO CCOLLECTOLLECT CCOINSOINS ✓ Find the answers to the top 8 questions about coins! ✓ Are there any U.S. coin types you’ve never heard of? ✓ Learn about grading coins! ✓ Expand your coin collecting knowledge! ✓ Keep your coins in the best condition! ✓ Learn all about the different U.S. Mints and mint marks! WELCOME… Dear Collector, Coins reflect the culture and the times in which they were produced, and U.S. coins tell the story of America in a way that no other artifact can. Why? Because they have been used since the nation’s beginnings. Pathfinders and trendsetters – Benjamin Franklin, Robert E. Lee, Teddy Roosevelt, Marilyn Monroe – you, your parents and grandparents have all used coins. When you hold one in your hand, you’re holding a tangible link to the past. David M. Sundman, You can travel back to colonial America LCC President with a large cent, the Civil War with a two-cent piece, or to the beginning of America’s involvement in WWI with a Mercury dime. Every U.S. coin is an enduring legacy from our nation’s past! Have a plan for your collection When many collectors begin, they may want to collect everything, because all different coin types fascinate them. But, after gaining more knowledge and experience, they usually find that it’s good to have a plan and a focus for what they want to collect. Although there are various ways (pages 8 & 9 list a few), building a complete date and mint mark collection (such as Lincoln cents) is considered by many to be the ultimate achievement.

  • Collecting Roosevelt Dimes by Thomas Coulson Franklin Delano Roosevelt Died Suddenly on April 12, 1945
    Liberty Coin Service Collecting Roosevelt Dimes by Thomas Coulson Franklin Delano Roosevelt died suddenly on April 12, 1945. He led the Nation for 12 years through some of its darkest moments; first out of the Great Depression then through World War II. He was beloved and mourned by many and his appearance on a U.S. coin was thought to be a fitting tribute. By law, coin designs can only be changed every 25 years, so the only denimonations available for the new design at the time were the cent, dime, and half dollar. The dime was likely chosen because of Roosevelt’s involvement in the National Foundation for Infantile Paray- lisis; better known as the March of Dimes. Roosevelt was stricken with the disease in 1921, causing him to lose the use of his legs. He founded 1946-D Roosevelt Dime the March of Dimes in 1938 to fund research in the combat of the disease. Many citizens sent dimes to the White House in support of Roosevelt’s cause on the occasion of his birthday that year. With those contriubtions, the organization gained solid footing and the funding drives continued annually. Late in 1945, designs for the new dime were hastily prepared by J.R. Sinnock so that the new dime might be ready for the 1946 March of Dimes fundraiser and to commemorate what would have been Roosevelt’s 64th birthday on January 30, 1946. After a couple of design rounds, the final design was chosen and the ambitious release date of January 30 was met. Roosevelt Dime - Reverse The new dimes were reasonably well received except for the JS initials found on Roosevelt’s neckline.
