There's 104 Roosevelt's and 134 Washington's. 1 dateless standing liberty, and 1 1942 Mercury dime just to take the amount to 32 toz. Dimes 1 1942 28 1946 14 1947 14 1951S 12 1964 11 1964D 1 1962D 24 unique dates in a book 105 Quarters 40 1964 20 1964D 20 1936D 24 mixed duplicates 31 unique dates in books 135 I hope I'm not overstepping bounds asking for opinions on this lot before I dump it to get the 12 remaining Washington's I need and a few of the remaining 7 Lincolns that I need. I just want to be sure it's just silver value here. Thank you very much! |

If your weighing the coins that is coin weight. The coins are 90% silver not 100%. Have you checked them for errors/varieties? John1  |

105*.07234+135*.18084=32.01toz

Personally I would much rather a Kilo of Silver coins to a boring bar or some bullion or third party Silver rounds any day  I would think that your coins are worth a premium over melt  |

Well I need a dozen Washington's and 7 Lincolns to complete those sets and I think I can get quite close by trading this silver. I think I could possibly get all of the Washington's, and 4 of the Lincolns, leaving just the 09SVDB, 14D, and no D 22..

Your 60's date dimes and quarters are most likely worth melt value unless they are in higher MS condition. The 30's quarters definitely carry a premium over melt. For the rest, it's going to probably depend on condition. 40's dates probably carry some premium unless they are worn out "slicks" grades while 50's dates may carry some premium as they get into high AU range or better. This is based on selling yourself; a dealer would more likely offer melt value on more coins as the profit margins are fairly slim most likely.
I would try to group these into lots you would sell as melt lots and individual coins you would sell as collector grades to get full value.

Thanks Ken. I traded off 40 1964 quarters, 20 1964D quarters, and 20 1936D quarters today. I wish I saw your post about the 1930's quarters carrying a premium before I did it but what's done is done.

The 36D's were very worn, much thinner than the 64's, so I'm pretty sure the condition was just 'good'.

In that condition it's not like you are talking about a big difference in price and there is the hassle of selling them individually so it's not a big deal if you made a good trade to get something you needed.
