Add a premium early-clad proof to your collection with this 1970-S Roosevelt Dime, certified PR69CAM by PCGS. Struck at the San Francisco Mint, this coin was specially produced for collectors using highly polished dies and planchets, resulting in sharp detail and brilliant mirror-like fields.
This example features a desirable Cameo (CAM) finish, where the frosted image of President Franklin D. Roosevelt contrasts beautifully against the reflective background. With a PR69 grade, the coin is considered near-perfect, displaying exceptional eye appeal with only minor imperfections visible under magnification.
Issued just a few years after the U.S. Mint’s transition away from silver coinage (1965), the 1970-S proof dime represents an important era in modern American numismatics. Early proof coins from this period are increasingly sought after, especially in high grades with cameo contrast.
Encapsulated and authenticated by PCGS, this coin offers both collector confidence and long-term value, making it an excellent addition to any Roosevelt dime set or modern proof collection.
