2011-P Roosevelt Dime Obverse

After several years, the United States Mint stopped using the satin finish for uncirculated coins included in the annual Mint Sets. Instead, the coins were struck with a brilliant finish, as had been used prior to 2005. Third party grading services do not differentiate the brilliant finish from regular circulation strikes, which decreases the number of coins needed to keep a collection going.
