I have a silver dime, how much is it worth?

Question

Based on the silver content, how much is a 1964 silver US dime worth? Just wondering.. I actually have two of them now :P

It is minted with the date 1964, not 1963, and no clad showing through on the edges so it is a silver one.

Funny how someone already edited their answer about it not being a silver one because of the 1964 date...

Ben, how does it depend on condition??? I asked for the SCRAP VALUE! A little wear may take a lot of the collectible value, but not much of the actual weight value.. duh...

Answer 1

At the moment they are worth about a dollar each.

Even an uncirculated 1964 dime is only worth it's silver content, they are extremely common.

1964 was the last year the dime, quarter and half dollar were silver (90% silver). From 1965 on the dime and quarter were clad, but from 1965-1970 the half dollar was made of 40% silver.

You shouldn't answer questions if you don't know what you are talking about >_>

-------------------------

US Silver coins are not bought by weight, they are dealt with by face value. A bag of US 90% silver coins is $1,000 face value. If all of the coins are uncirculated there is 720 ounces of silver in the bag, but you rarely see an uncirculated bag which is why 715 is used in all of the math and not 720 (715 instead of 720 due to wear).

With spot silver at $14.48 (todays close) I would be paying $9,680 for a bag, or 97 cents for one dime or $9.68 per dollar. You don't get a quote from London either...unless you live there...there are wholesalers/retailers all over the US.

Also, keep in mind if you check a paper for spot prices they are a day old. Use www.kitco.com or www.thebulliondesk.com for current up to the minuet spot prices.

Lots of things can help lose weight, a good nights sleep, exercise, not eating too much junk food, eating sensible amounts of fruit and vegetables, and yes green tea may help do it's bit by assisting your bowel movement. Get more information here:

Answer 7

If they were in pristine uncirculated condition, maybe $10-15. In circulated condition, around 25 cents. Strictly scrap silver content, about 30 cents. Sorry, I know that's not what you wanted to hear.

Answer 8

Not much but you should hold onto them, mercury dimes are worth more, you can check at USMINT

Answer 9

If/when you do get any real silver (circulated coins are considered 'junk silver' and are about 90%... still worth a lot more than the silver-painted crap we have now) hang on to it. As the dollar continues to de-value, real metal money will increase considerably.

Answer 10

The amount of wear does take away from the value of silver coins for they are weighed first then you get your money. No dealer is interested in one 1964 dime. To find out check the newspaper for the price of silver at the moment you want to sell said dimes or go to a coin dealer for he can get a quote on his computer from London. The dime has .07234 oz. of pure silver in uncirculated condition so get a paper and figure the math. I also think your attitude stinks.
