90% Junk Silver US Coins | $1 Face Value | .715 Troy Ounces

Prior to 1965, all U.S. coins intended for circulation that were larger than a nickel (i.e., dimes, quarters, half dollars, and dollars) were composed of 90% pure silver. The high intrinsic value of these coins relative to their face value caused them to quickly leave the marketplace when the cupro-nickel coins arrived. Though not officially designated as bullion coins, these 90% silver coins are, in fact, valued and traded for their bullion content. 90% silver coins are sold in assorted face value bags comprised of a mix of Roosevelt dimes, Washington quarters, and ’64 Kennedy half dollars which offer the investor an affordable, convenient, and easily divisible means of owning silver with a built-in guarantee: no matter what eventually happens to the price of silver, 90% silver coins will always be worth at least their face value. For this reason alone, 90% silver coins are highly appropriate as a hedge against more volatile investments.
