Mgclendenin New Member United States 4 Posts	Posted 02/12/2019 9:20 pm In my Red Book, coin condition values for dimes minted 1934 and later start at F-12 and don't list G-4 and VG-8. I have several dimes in 1934 and later that do not meet the F-12 criteria but do meet what would be G-4 and VG-8. I'd like to know their values. Report this Post to the Staff

KenKat Pillar of the Community United States 4085 Posts	Posted 02/14/2019 8:32 pm If you google "silver melt value", you can get current values. Right now it's around 11.2x face amount. My 7070 US Type Set My 7100 Lincoln Cent Set (now with updates!) Report this Post to the Staff
