Can I Get More Than Melt

what you need is pics, dates, grades of each coin and a way to market them.

"can I get more than melt value for them?"

You probably could for some of them but it all depends on the year, condition and if any are varieties. If you have a 1948 Silver Dollar, that is a winner in any condition but your 1967 quarters would probably not be worth much more than melt.
Do you know if they are uncirculated or circulated or is there a mixture.
You are going to have to do some homework to figure out what you have but any you have questions on, post a large clear photo of both sides and someone will be able to help you.

Just saw your reply when I was typing mine.
Do not melt any without some one looking at them first.
Could you make a spreadsheet of what you have and then we can at least let you know what may be worth taking a second look at.

You will always get more than melt for silver coins that have a numismatic premium.
As a coin collector, such coins should be easy to identify and isolate out of a bulk of junk silver.

Don't sell your bulk junk silver until all of the above mentioned coins have been separated out. Your effort may well be repaid in two ways that you may not expect:-
If you are a coin collector, the above task will be easy and enjoyable, and
if you are not a coin collector the effort you mat expend may well turn you into a coin collector, or at least become a silver stasher instead.

What people have said above are all exactly what you need to do. Separate them, make a list of what you have and then either go to a book store or buy on ebay a Charlton coin guide and it can be 10 or more years old.

That guide will give you a "worth" for each coin, but the prices you see are "pie in the sky". All you want to see is which coins/dates are listed at a premium over the others. Those are the ones that you MAY get more than a scrap price for and you may decide to sell separately. The Charlton guide will give you a general idea of what "grade" the coin(s) may be in, but most folks think their own coin is better than any grading guide. After you have weeded out the ones that are the better coins, the others can be sold as "scrap silver", but you won't get that price either.

Any worn/circulated coin is going to weigh a little less than when it was minted. Most dealers will only give you about 90% of the scrap price, maybe a little more for coins in good shape. The current scrap silver price is $25.12 US. With your dates, each face dollar contains .800 pure silver, so each "face dollar" contains .6 troy oz of silver, a face dollar meaning any coins that add up to a dollar. So each face dollar will be worth 25.12 X .6 X $1.25 (the approx US/CN exchange rate the banks give) X .90 (what the dealer is paying). So you will be getting a little less than $17 Canadian for every face dollar, if you are using scrap silver as a choice. If you take your coins into dealer to get an estimate, NEVER sell to the dealer who gives you the estimate or you may get 7-8 times face rather than the 17X face that you know that they are worth. For selling, I'd check a few local dealers if you live by a larger city, ebay, kijiji, or Facebook has places that many people sell their coins. Good luck

Here is the "guide" that
oriole" was talking about, I think. But do NOT believe those prices those are marked up retail, pie in the sky figures. Just use the guide to see what dates/coins seem to sell at a premium over the others, and not incremental small premiums.
