The Value of US Silver Coins In Silver Bullion

Do You Have Treasue In Your Old Coins?

If you have read any financial news at all, you must realize the price of silver and gold is very strong this year. This rise has increased the interest in US silver coins, especially dimes, quarters, halves, and dollar coins minted on or before 1964. These were all 90% silver, and every $1 in face value of these coins contains about .715 of a troy ounce of silver!

Half dollars minted between 1965 and 1970 were .40 silver, and even some WWII nickels were actually .35 silver! A handful of these coins can be worth a lot more then the marked value.
