The current design on the obverse of U.S. coins dates back to 1946, according to the United States Mint. It was published soon after FDR’s passing, and it bears his likeness. John R. Sinnock, the United States Mint’s Chief Engraver at the time, created both the obverse and reverse of the dime, which depicts a torch, an olive branch, and an oak branch.
