10% silver by weight... contains less silver than a U.S. dime!

However, melt and numismatic value is about $3... you did well

You should do this more often

This design was used from 1957-1967, I believe it has the highest mintage with 41 899 000.

Nice coin! Most melters/smelters avoid this type because the silver content is so low. Should not be considered a bullion buy. I think they are plated.
