Depends on the year and denomination of the coin. For coins intended for circulation:

Dimes, Half-Dollars, Quarters and Dollars dated 1964 and prior are 90% silver

Half-Dollars dated 1965-1970 are 40% silver

Nickels dated 1942-1945 AND have a large mintmark over the Monticello (either a P, D or S) are 35% silver
