$1 Face Value 90% Silver Coins

90% Silver Currency (Junk Silver)

Today it can be hard to fathom that prior to 1965, many of the coins in everyday circulation were minted from 90% pure silver.

All of the Roosevelt and Mercury dimes, Washington and Barber Quarters, Franklin and Walking Liberty half-dollars were minted of this alloy.

After the introduction of modern clad coins, many people horded these 90% silver coins as the price of silver began to rise in the 1960s. 

The coins in these dealer listings are random lots based on what each may have in stock at the time of order.

They could contain a mix of dimes, quarters and half dollars. The coins you receive when ordering from these listings will have been minted of 90% silver from before the introduction of copper clad currency in 1965. Buying junk silver coins is a great way to start your silver investments.

Most common in these lots are Roosevelt dimes from 1946-1964, Washington quarters from 1932-1964, 1964 Kennedy half-dollars or Franklin half-dollars from 1948-1963. The coins will typically be in circulated condition and will contain a mix of dates.

Each $1 Face Value of 90% silver coins contains .715 troy ounces of silver as these are unlikely to include silver dollar coins. $1 silver coins, like Morgan and Peace dollars contain .7734 and many of those hold numismatic premiums.

Other Common 90% Face Value Lots
