Junk Silver Unboxing & Mercury Dimes Vs. Roosevelt Dimes

[@SilverDragons47]

I understand that people like to use .715 x FV to calculate the amount of silver in junk but I prefer to use .723 and then see how much silver they have lost when I weigh them. $1.40 FV is the closest you can come to 1 ounce of silver. Have you seen my video on silver dimes?!? 👉🏽 kzbin.info/www/bejne/lX2rq3aNmLOLqKc

[@AdolfoCardoza777]

Ok

[@_Hound_]

if you want a nicer box cutter, check out the Milwaukee fastback, or fastback compact. home depot usually has them in-store. steer clear of the version with in-handle blade storage tho, as it's too bulky for pocket carry.

[@JohnDoe-wy1zt]

What would you recommend paying for 40% junk silver like 65-70 Kennedy Halves, or an Eisenhower?

[@JohnDoe-wy1zt]

I was thinking that since you said something about 13 times the face value of 90% silver. Since there is 50% less silver in those kinds of coins, would you recommend a decent price for 40% silver coins 6.5 times the face value?

[@CashAndCoinsYT]

Good info

[@umoramayori]

I prefer Mercury over Roosevelt dimes. Not question at a glance that Mercs arent regular dimes.

[@braden6992]

Mercury dimes are better because silver Roosevelt dimes can be confused with the current Roosevelt dimes. Most people don't know the difference. But with Mercury's there's no question you've got something special.

[@Lee-xb7lb]

I like Rossies for just that reason. I still find them pretty regularly at work.

I love constitutional silver.Glad i stacked some before the new tax in Illinois. For $80 face there is a tax of $66.26 That's close to 1 dollar per ounce. Pure bullion is not taxed in Illinois, just 90% and less. Stupid tax!

Why did you buy from an online dealer? Lmfao. Independent sellers are the way to go.

How can that be constitutional.....seems that is just not right.

Super nice my friend , I also have some 90% Silver Dimes , half dollar & some 90% silver dollars . They have a lot of history with them , no telling who had it & were it has been around the USA . Have a good one my friend , hope you & your family is all safe !!!!!

We got 100$ FV of 50cent pieces. Yankee SWAP, RIP. It's my favorite silver of all the silver. The best hand feel and sounds so beautiful with piles to play with and stack.

Walking Liberty half dollars for daaays and days! A mixture or one denomination of pre-1965 90% silver coins adding up to a face value of $1.00. Each face value of one dollar will contain 0.715 troy ounces of fine silver.

enjoyed the video! you mentioned the term “Troy ounce”… just wanted to mention to folks watching ur video in case they didn’t know “A troy ounce is a unit of measurement used to weigh precious metals like gold, silver, and platinum. It's based on a pound of 12 ounces, which is different from the avoirdupois system, which is based on a pound of 16 ounces.”

.723 is only valid for 1964 Kennedy half dollars in practice. Everything else has a lower value closer to .715 or .710 or even .695 depending on wear.

Great junk silver.✅ Thanks for showing us and giving info on the dimes.😎👍👍👌👌⛏⛏

[@michaelwhitt355]

I used to not like junk silver, main reason is I was paying to much for it from online dealers. I started buying from my LCS at lower prices just recently and realise how important it can be to have. I bought $29 face from my LCS just before the crash, the very next day he was out of all silver with exception of numismatic. I'm thankful to have my junk silver.

[@notthatperson8179]

Junk silver is the best to own for most working people. When I was a kid we used to pick out the silver coins from change. My first job as a cashier I kept all the silver coins. As an adult I continued to do that. Over that time I was able to get close to $1,000 face value of silver for under $1,000. Even as recently as last fall a bank had 20 almost uncirculated 90% half dollars in their tray! I bought them for $0.50 each. When I started buying silver, it was really cheap so I bought 100oz bars. When it got more expensive I moved to coins (Eagles & Pandas). Premiums started going up so I bought the cheapest silver possible which was 90% junk. Looking back I think it would have been better to only buy junk. Just a few days before the physical market went crazy, I walked into a bullion dealer and he had over $2,000 face of junk half dollars in stock. The price was just over spot. He told me he was having problems selling it and offered it at spot. I wasn’t really interested in silver but I ended up getting 200 since I kinda love junk. Now he’s selling them at $7 over spot.

[@6banzai5]

great idea. i do dimes and quarters until lately. the premiums are bothering me.

[@shakester2010]

New sub here, love the channel, awesome info, thank you.

[@gnarxy]

i'm probably an idiot.. but how do you calculate how much times face value you paid for a lot of dimes? I only ever figured out how much I paid for each individual dime and divided that by the .3617. then subtracted the spot of price when I purchased from that answer, so I know how much of a total premium I paid over spot. But how would I work backwards and figure out what multiplier over face-value I paid?

[@SilverDragons47]

gnarxy you take the dollar amount and divide the FV (I paid $720 and it’s $60FV so you get 12x Face) 🔥🐉

[@markpashia7067]

Ok, so junk silver has a lot of good points to them. First off selling should not be subject to any taxes in most places. Also the buyer usually does not have to hold them for a period. Some places require LCS and pawn dealers to hold PMs for thirty days before reselling but not these coins. However much of this does not matter if this really is the SHTF. They are very recognizable and will become more so if the SHTF and their small size makes daily purchases easy. Large purchases will be done in gold or kilos of silver but groceries will need these small denominations and you only need to show what the purchase amount is. Can you imagine buying something with a ten oz bar and getting nine one oz rounds plus some junk silver for change in front of a crowd of strangers? I don't want to risk getting my head bashed in. So dimes and quarters are handy. Same with halfs and dollars, but the dollars are not based on face as they are a little heavier. On a side note, Rosies and Kennedy's are not as popular because they are both available in junk silver and clad which might confuse the common man. I for one think folks will learn very fast after the SHTF or they will be getting screwed left and right, so I don't really think this is an issue. Get the best deal you can as long as they are all junk silver and priced right.

Here in Minneapolis: the Northwest Coin Club Money Show has been cancelled for this year. I guess the dealers didnt want to lose money selling now, plus the venue called it off because of the virus of course. I love junk silver myself, Morgans, Peace, halves etc. I think our coins should be silver again and intead of a face value, the mint should just put the silver content & each day merchants & folks could see how much that amount was worth & proceed from there. Such as today a dime is worth 91.2 cents, round it up to a dollar. OR. put a face value on them such as a dime = $2.00 a quarter = $5.00 a 50 cent piece would be $10.00 a Morgan or Peace could be $20.00 & finally a Silver Eagle could be $25.00.

Later walking my second baby I found a walking liberty half dollar at that point I was almost half awake... I started to stack nickels cause I didn't have much money which lead me to find a way to to make more so I could stack..

Talking Bullion thanks. I paid $10.50 for $1 face value. Which is a good deal imo. Some dealer wanted $14 for $1 which is ridiculous. U gotta go find these old coin shops. Don’t deal with bullion dealers. Coin collectors have these old coins stashed up for awhile.
