Freedom Pillar of the Community United States 526 Posts	Posted 09/07/2012 08:40 am The 1993-S Silver Proof is 90%. Any US Coin made after 1975/1976 is 90% silver with the exception of the Bi-Centennials which were 40% coins, including all of the "Silver" Eisenhower dollars. Report this Post to the Staff

BadToTheBone Pillar of the Community United States 1795 Posts	Posted 10/17/2012 9:03 pm Picked up a box of halves at one bank ...I did get 1 1964 Kennedy and picked up two boxes of dimes at another bank and I did find one 1956 Roosevelt dime...I did get a few nice coins out of those boxes but nothing special to add to my collection. Slim pickings this time! Sometimes you win sometimes you don't. Report this Post to the Staff
Fat Freddy Pillar of the Community United States 1200 Posts	Posted 10/18/2012 12:27 am Congrats on all those silvers. I genuinely envy you. I'm now over 30 boxes of halves and have yet to see silver #1. Getting tired of lugging these things around; probably gonna pack it in with the halves. Looks like we've got a limited pool of them in continuous recirculation in my area and the half hunters around where I live are just working over and over the same old halves again and again. No new coins in our local pool here. Just the same tired old magic-markered specimens doing the circuit and revisiting the same half hunter's houses again and again. It's disheartening.
