SomethingIsFishy Valued Member United States 303 Posts	Posted 05/21/2016 8:36 pm Finally got my dimes to complete my March of Dimes "set". This set struck a chord with me because our son was born March 24, 2015... 2 months early. I was just getting back into collecting coins then, and didn't know this set existed. Of course when I found out about it I knew I had to have at least the dollar. I initially bought the dollar, and decided to get the OGP also with the intention to get the dimes at a later time. Well, usps dropped off a package today containing those two special dimes! As a side note, I wasn't thrilled with the pictures I had seen of reverse proofs in general, but I really like the reverse proof dime "in hand". Report this Post to the Staff

SomethingIsFishy Valued Member United States 303 Posts	Posted 05/22/2016 10:08 pm Yeah, it's a great reminder of how blessed we are as a family. I'm sure our son has benefitted from the research that the March of Dimes has helped fund! Report this Post to the Staff

Bret Pillar of the Community United States 1913 Posts	Posted 05/23/2016 9:34 pm I'm not a fan of Roosevelt dimes, but I have to say that I like this set. In general, I don't think reverse proofs look as good as regular proofs, but I actually like this one better. Perhaps the smaller size helps. Report this Post to the Staff

I agree, I think the smaller size is a reason why the reverse proof dime looks really good compared to the others.
