Misterpostman Valued Member Australia 208 Posts	Posted 03/12/2014 9:39 pm Which 90% silver coins will be worth a premium in the future, which are generally not now? Here are a few of my thoughts: If you look in the junk bin at you LCS, you can generally get Mercury dimes for the same price as Roosevelt dimes. I think this will change one day. 1948 and 1949 Franklin halves are low mintage, and easy to distinguish as a separate class, in the same way as pre '21 Morgans are. Walking Liberty and Franklin halves that are fairly nice will one day be worth more than '64 Kennedys Report this Post to the Staff

zxcccxz Pillar of the Community Canada 5417 Posts	Posted 03/12/2014 9:47 pm I agree with you. That's why I always pick up any Barber coinage for scrap and always prefer Mercury dimes and walking liberty's over Roosevelt's and Franklin's and Kennedy's. Report this Post to the Staff
LeoS Valued Member United States 174 Posts	Posted 03/12/2014 10:07 pm Agreed. I have a love for the look and feel of Franklins. However, I often see 30's and 40's quarters and halves sold at same price as Kennedy halves. It is about supply and demand, and naturally the older ones as more and more get collected, melted, will eventually no longer be called "junk" silver. Report this Post to the Staff
Libertad Pillar of the Community Canada 3692 Posts	Posted 03/21/2014 6:05 pm I think it depends on how many collectors will be around in 10-20 years. When they diminish I think that more coins will get melted as there will be little use for them besides hoarding. Report this Post to the Staff
Liverpool Pillar of the Community Canada 576 Posts	Posted 03/21/2014 7:14 pm Man I am no expert here but I've been buying 64 Kennedys for near melt, nice coin near perfect uncirculated because everyone put them away. They were only made for a year and come with some sad but interesting history. All over the world Kennedy will never be forgotten. The 90% silver coin was just for one year. Please don't take this as advise, just some thoughts. Liverpool Report this Post to the Staff
fistfulladirt Pillar of the Community United States 4333 Posts	Posted 03/21/2014 7:15 pm I 'dig' the renaissance coinage from the teens through the '40s. Those and Barbers especially the quarters. When I listen to LED ZEPPELIN...so do my neighbors... Roll hunting since '77 Dirt fishing since '72 Report this Post to the Staff
