Silver is no longer used for circulating coinage, and many coins have been melted, but most are still around, held by coin and bullion dealers or in private collections.
Coin silver Selmer's are stamped on the main body "Coin Silver" Matching serial numbers on all pieces prove they are all solid silver.
No it's 90% silver and 10% copper with out the copper the coin would be to soft to use
There is about 25 dollars worth of silver in this coin. That is all it is worth.
It really depends on which coin it is. Is it a US silver dollar or dime? There is a big difference. Is it a world coin? What country is it from? All of these things matter when figuring the value of a coin.
No, they are nickle
The coin is not "all silver" its 90% silver and 10% copper. The value is about 3 bucks just for the silver content.
A genuine 1795 dollar is silver, but it's not pure silver. The coin is a fake if it's not silver.
No circulating British decimal coin contains any silver at all. The closest you might have got, prior to 1920, to a pure silver circulating coin was 92.5% (sterling silver), the standard at the time. From 1919/1920, the silver content of British coins was reduced from 92.5% to 50%. From 1947, all British "silver" coins contained no silver at all, they were made from a copper-nickel alloy. There are a number of non-circulating British coins minted from time to time, that have a 92.5% silver content.
None. From 1947 onwards, no British general circulation coin contained silver, they were all made from a copper nickel alloy.
Yes. Australian silver coins were first minted in 1910 by the Royal Mint London. The silver coins included the Threepence, Sixpence, Shilling, Florin (Two Shillings) and in 1937 and 1938 only, a Crown (Five Shillings). From 1910 to 1944, all Australian Threepences were sterling silver containing 92.5% silver. From 1947 to 1964 all Australian Threepences contained 50% silver. From 1910 to 1945, all Australian Sixpences were sterling silver containing 92.5% silver. From 1946 to 1963 all Australian Sixpences contained 50% silver. From 1910 to 1945, all Australian Shillings were sterling silver containing 92.5% silver. From 1946 to 1963 all Australian Shillings contained 50% silver. From 1910 to 1945, all Australian Florins were sterling silver containing 92.5% silver. From 1946 to 1963 all Australian Florins contained 50% silver. Both issues of the Australian Crown were sterling silver. At decimalisation in 1966, the only coin to contain any silver was the round 50 cent coin which had an 80% silver content. Since the price of silver sky rocketed at about this time, the silver 50 cent coin was withdrawn and eventually replaced with the more familiar 12 sided cupro-nickel 50 cent coin. Currently, there are no Australian circulating coins that contain any silver.
It is. All half dollars made in 1964 and earlier are 90% silver.
Trade dollars were US coins made in silver to trade in the far East. However, your coin, if it is an 1884 Trade Dollar, it is counterfeit. There were only 10 examples minted that year, all of them are known. So, when it comes to value, the only value your coin can have is if it is minted in real silver, if it is minted in real silver, it is worth however much silver is in your coin. If it is silver plated lead, or silver plated copper, or non-silver alloy like "nickel silver" your coin is essentially worthless.
