Banks actually sort coins to REMOVE all silver coins. This is so funny, some dumb teller at your bank didn't know this and gave you the sorted silver rolls, ahahahaha! Nice going, man, stick it to the greedy banks.
huntin for silver coins in the states is so much easier than in canada, all you have to do is look at the side of the quarters or half dollars and if it looks copper its not silver. Canadian coins are counterfeited by the mint very effectively...unfortunately
I mean as in someone had to stolen them and cash them in or forgot that they rolled silver and put them in the box. Because there is no way the bank or someone else would cash in silver for face when they can get more. I don't know you so I can't judge you.
@MikeyMikeM21 believe what you want, but that was the most silver I had ever seen at that time, and I was totally baffled. I don't know if you mean fishy as in I faked it, or fishy as in there isn't any silver left, but I swear I was genuinely freaked out and all the times I've done it since this has never happened.
90 percent.... nice... i bought a box of dimes and got to silvers... bought a hundred in halfs and got twp rolls of bi-centennial halves... lol ii will try each week.. cool
And for those of you without much luck, you're not alone. Most people who find them in large quantities either go to previously un-hunted banks, or had impecable timing and bought them just after some old person exchanged them for cash without understanding their value.
You can tell they are silver by the edges of the coins, as well as the dates. Silver coins have grey/silver edges with no copper bands. 1965-1970 are 40%. and all pre 1965 halves are 90%
@David12King well actually when I went down to the coin shop in my city the guy at the counter said people go in there all the time and exchange the 40% coins for 90% coins.
@Prepper7 Even then, it's still worth melt value. I have several zip lock bags of 40%s, doesn't bother me. Big dealers will buy $500 face value bags of 40% from you @ a few cents less than spot price. No different than 90% in that respect.
Thats a win for the little guy on the street and a kick in the plums for j p morgan, I am happy for you man, take care.
Ps check out drutter's video on how to clean those up to a mirror shine, for the 40% coins might want to add some white vinegar to his mix in the tarnish removal 'bath' then get rid of the dirt under the running water with baking soda, they will come up like new.
coinflation but silvercoinstoday c o m silver-calculators us-silver-coin-calculator is easier I recon.
Nice haul dude, you said there were 66 silver halves? if they are all 1964 and older they have 90% Silver content in them and according to Coin flation.com with the spot price of Silver being what it say's is $47.94 you have $1,144.42 worth of Silver in those bad boy's! Good job and go check out that site!
As of now the total melt value of those half dollars is $781.68!
