I picked these up in a buy I made of junk silver. I know what they but is there anything good or should I just send this with the other junk coins?

That 1913 is NOT junk quality wise, Full Liberty. How's the reverse? And MM's of the others?

That 1913 is a definite keeper and I would also keep any that are VG or better. The rest I would save and use for trading as in my opinion Barber coins of any denomination should not be lumped in with the more modern 90% silver "junk" coins.

NO BARBERS are junk unless they are AG or lower. Only one seems to fall into that category. If you dont want them, I will gladly pay you melt. LOL

Check the date and mintmark combinations on all of those dimes. Some may be much more valuable than just junk silver. I see a few dates that you want to see if there is a mintmark like the two 1913 and the 1901. See if those have have an "S" on the reverse below the wreath.

Here in the USA too. I can't figure out how anyone could say JUNK Silver for any coin that is in the hundreds of year old range. The way Silver coins are being melted down, the ones shown here will be worth a real lot soon enough.

I love it when people call coins like this junk. Great way to snag a deal.
