1996 was the 50th anniversary of the Roosevelt dime so the Mint did something special- a 1996 dime minted with a West Point mint mark was included in the 1996 Mint Set. The coin by itself is about $20-25 but you can usually get the whole mint set for about that price as well. With only 1.457 million minted, it is by far the key date for Roosies.

I finished my Roosevelt dime collection not too long ago. My Dansco Album didn't have a space for the 1996 W Dime. I did buy a couple of them bought the sets) and put them in air-tites.

I love your comment on having problems finding the 2007D.
Gosh, if you lived next to me, just back your truck up to my door and you'll get 'em all. Me, on the other hand, have only a couple 2007P's.
This 'D' and 'P' thing irritates me. On the one hand, it is kind of cool because you go "Yippee" when you find a 'P' (or a 'D'). But it is a hassle.
I've been putting aside pennies 1983 to date when they are choice. I have at least 10 in most of the dates, but only ONE for 2007P. I have about forty million 2007D pennies though.
Oh well, if we could get everything we wanted, we probably wouldn't want it.

How weird is this.....I got a 1964 Rosie in circulation tonight. I've also found a Rose-colored Rosie. It's a 1979d and it's got a pinkish hue to it. I'm not sure what caused it but it's cool

What is a 64W? I bought the 96W and have a complete set of silver Roosevelt dimes, and am lacking about 6 from the clad series. I could buy them, but am still hoping from circulation. In truth, the Roosevelts do not excite me very much (nor do the Jefferson nickels) Now Buffaloes and Walking Liberties---AAAAAH

For now there is no slots in Dansco or Whitman for a 1996W Roosevelt dime so any set of them without that W should be considered complete. Of course since Whitman likes to put weird coins in their albums, soon that probably will be added. I have several of these sets in Whitman Albums. I'm not a big fan of Roosevelt dimes or Jefferson nickels as already mentioned. But since I received the Albums free, just had to fill them. So far, except for the proofs, never bought a Roosevelt dime. All from either normal circulation or buying bags of Dimes from a bank. Never buy coins in rolls due to the rolling machines scratches. Bags of coins are the only way to go.
