Are pre-1964 quarters worth more that post 1964 quarters because of the silver content usedNOTICE?
Yes, the reason why quarters (and dimes, and half dollars) dated 1964 and earlier are worth more than their 1965 and later coins is because they are 90% silver.
Value of silver coins?
Are they U.S. coins? Which denominations? Post new question.
Are there silver alloys less with less silver content than coin silver?
Of course. And "coin silver" only refers to the US standard of 90% pure silver coins. Most other countries (especially in the British empire) used to use sterling silver. Coins have used many different alloys, for example, post WWI Canadian coins are 80% silver, silver UK coins dated 1920-1946 are 50% silver, some ancient "silver" coins are known as billion coins and they contain very little silver, and Mexico issued a 1 peso coin in the late 1950s and 60s that was only 10% silver!
What is the value of a 1964 Ike silver dollar?
Sorry, no US dollar coins exist dated 1964. Eisenhower first appeared on the dollar coin in 1971. The coin is likely a 1964 Kennedy HALF dollar. Look at the coin again and post new question.

1964 silver nickel?
Nickels that year weren't made of silver. There was no change in metal composition in nickels in the 1960s. The only nickels that do contain silver are those minted between 1942 and '45. Anything post-war is only worth face value.
What post 1964 US coins are of greater than face value?
U.S. half dollars dated 1965-70 contain 40% silver and are currently worth around $3. Then some Ike dollars are also 40% silver, but only in special versions minted for collectors. Some modern proof dimes, quarters, and halves are 90% silver. Regarding average circulating coinage after 1964, cents minted before 1983 are worth double face value because of the copper content.
How do you tell if this coin is silver?
The U.S. has made many silver coins. Please be more specific and post new question.
What is the value of an brilliant uncirculated bicentenial Einsenhower silver dollar worth?
For the bicentennial Eisenhower dollar coins, only some of the "S" mint-marked coins contain any silver, and that is just 40%. None were released onto circulation. Please post new question with information about the mintmarks. It makes a difference in the value.
Silver Halfcrowns approx 5lb in weight what value?
If you are interested only in the silver value, not all Halfcrowns were made from pure silver and the post 1947 coins contained no silver at all. Whatever the going rate for silver is. If you are interested in the collector (numismatic) value of the coins, please provide year and condition of the coins.
