NewbieCoiner808 Valued Member United States 463 Posts	Posted 06/22/2019 1:28 pm I found this one in a coin roll. Obviously it has been circulated but I'm trying to get an idea of the grade since the mintage is very low for that year. I'm really just curious if it's worth more than the silver value Report this Post to the Staff

John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 06/22/2019 6:12 pm 11.3 grams is the silver one. What is the weight of yours? It is what we call an impaired proof. IMHO, little if any value above melt. John1 Report this Post to the Staff
NewbieCoiner808 Valued Member United States 463 Posts	Posted 06/22/2019 6:52 pm 12.5 grams Report this Post to the Staff
John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 06/23/2019 05:12 am I got the weight from the CCF coin facts info. Just double checked and it says the silver and the non silver weight the same so... You could try the tissue test John1 Report this Post to the Staff

NewbieCoiner808 Valued Member United States 463 Posts	Posted 06/23/2019 11:40 am I've read several places that 12.5 grams is the correct weight? It's 90% silver so should be heavier than others Report this Post to the Staff

Gincoin43 Pillar of the Community United States 1543 Posts	Posted 06/23/2019 9:02 pm The one on the left is silver, the one on the right is probably not though a shadow is probably making it a bit darker. Report this Post to the Staff
NewbieCoiner808 Valued Member United States 463 Posts	Posted 06/24/2019 10:58 am I was never questioning if it is silver, I knew it was before making this post. I was just wondering if it might be worth more than melt value. I was hoping to sell it for $20 or more but I guess I'll hang on to it unless anyone wants to trade for some silver dimes?
