Item Description
The 1964-D Roosevelt Dime in a PCGS Sample Slab (Old Green Holder) graded MS64 is a truly unique collectible that blends historical significance, rarity, and a fascinating connection to numismatic grading history. Let me explain why this special piece should be in your collection:
Historical Significance:
The Roosevelt Dime was first minted in 1946 to honor President Franklin D. Roosevelt, a beloved leader who guided the U.S. through the Great Depression and World War II. The 1964-D (Denver Mint) issue marks the final year that dimes were struck in 90% silver, as the U.S. shifted away from silver coinage in 1965 due to rising silver prices and inflation. This makes the 1964-D Roosevelt Dime historically significant as part of the last generation of U.S. silver coinage.
Additionally, 1964 was an important year for the nation, as it stood on the brink of major social changes, including the Civil Rights Movement and the expansion of the space race. This dime carries the legacy of Roosevelt and the era that followed his presidency.
Rarity - PCGS Sample Slab & Old Green Holder:
What makes this coin particularly special is its PCGS Sample Slab, housed in the iconic Old Green Holder (OGH). These sample slabs were distributed in limited quantities by PCGS (Professional Coin Grading Service) to demonstrate the company’s coin grading and encapsulation process. The Old Green Holder is especially prized among collectors for its historical significance, as PCGS used this holder design between the late 1980s and early 2000s before switching to its more modern blue label holders. Coins in these holders have a vintage appeal and are sought after by numismatists who appreciate PCGS’s early history and grading innovations.
Being in a sample slab adds an additional layer of rarity, as only a small number of these coins were encapsulated and distributed in this way, making it a must-have for collectors of vintage holders or those interested in the evolution of coin grading.
Estimated Market Value:
A 1964-D Roosevelt Dime in MS64, housed in a PCGS Old Green Holder (Sample Slab), is typically valued between $50 and $100, depending on its eye appeal and market demand. The value is driven not only by the coin's MS64 grade but also by the desirability of the PCGS sample slab and the collector interest in the old green holders. For some collectors, the slab itself is as valuable as the coin within, due to its numismatic historical importance.
Investment Potential:
Coins housed in PCGS Sample Slabs, particularly in the old green holders, have become increasingly collectible as more numismatists appreciate the history of third-party grading services like PCGS. The scarcity of these slabs, combined with the inherent collectible appeal of a high-grade 1964-D Roosevelt Dime, makes this coin a strong investment. Over time, as fewer of these sample slabs are available on the market, their value and desirability are likely to increase.
Why This Coin?
Owning a 1964-D Roosevelt Dime in PCGS MS64 (Sample Slab, Old Green Holder) gives you the chance to add a truly unique piece to your collection—one that captures a pivotal moment in U.S. coinage history (the end of silver coin production) and numismatic history (the early days of PCGS grading). The coin itself is a high-quality example with strong luster and minimal marks, while the slab it resides in is a piece of numismatic history that is highly sought after by advanced collectors.
With its combination of historical significance, rarity in the PCGS sample slab, and potential for future appreciation, this 1964-D Roosevelt Dime in PCGS MS64 (Old Green Holder) is a standout piece for any collector looking to own something truly unique in both coinage and numismatic history.
