Best Answer

$1.29 per ounce

there are 0.18 troy oz (5.6 grams) of silver in a 1964 quarter. Therefore one ounce culd make about 5 quarters. After the price of silver was deregulated in the mid-1960s it cost the mint more than 25 cents to mint a quarter and more than 10 cents to mint a dime, which is why they stopped using silver and started using copper and nickel.

How do you calculate the value of a US half dollar worth of silver?

For any silver US coin you multiply the ASW. ( actual silver weight ) by the current spot price of silver. EXAMPLE: ASW of a 1964 Kennedy half dollar is .36169. Spot price of silver as of 1:30pm 12-31-10 is $30.89 per ounce. .36169 X $30.89= $11.17 But don't expect to get this much from a silver buyer, the price of silver goes up & down so much and so fast only expect about 2/3 of current spot price.


How much is a 1964 pure silver dime worth?

The U.S. never made 100% silver coins for circulation. The metal would be too soft for daily use. All silver coins had at least 10% copper in them. Dimes dated 1964 and earlier contain about 0.07 ounces of silver. The price of silver changes so you'd need to search on terms such as SPOT PRICE SILVER to get the most current value, then multiply the price per ounce by 0.07. For example, at $14/oz a 1964 dime contains about $1 worth of silver.
