The sister who inherited the other ammo case took it to a change machine and received $600-700 for the coins’ face value. Our client’s box ended up revealing $5,000-10,000 worth of 90% silver dimes, as calculated at the silver price of the day. A while ago, we had a client who brought in a World War II ammo case full of silver dimes from their parent’s basement, one of two boxes the parents had filled with dimes throughout their lives. The best word of advice is to always double check your coins before making a decision about what to do with them. For example, if the junk silver price is $10 for every $1 of face value, a dollar’s worth of 90% silver coins would be worth $10, a half dollar would be $5, a quarter $2.50, and a dime would be worth $1. The value of US silver coins is mostly based on the silver content and is typically expressed as a value of the face value. The value of common pre-1964 US silver coins changes as the price of silver ebbs and flows in the global market, and is also affected by the global industrial demand for silver. There are also truly rare and collectible coins in these categories such as the 1916-D Mercury dime, the 1938-D Walking Liberty half dollar, and coins in high grades of uncirculated condition (as if they just came from the mint) which are very rare and prized by collectors. Most Morgan and Peace dollars, unless terribly worn or damaged, always have at least a small collectible or numismatic value above their silver value. However, there are some exceptions to these otherwise common coins. They are typically common coins, minted in large quantities and easily found even today. These kinds of coins are sometimes called “junk silver” by coin collectors and dealers.
