As opposed to fake silver dimes, LOL?

A lot more information is needed. Silver dimes were minted at 4 different mints over a period of about 170 years so there's no simple answer without enough information to identify a specific coin.

As a rule of thumb most dimes dated 1940 and later that show even a moderate amount of wear are common among collectors, and sell mostly for their silver content - around 90 cents as of 09/2009. Older dates, as well as uncirculated and proof specimens, can be worth anywhere from a couple of dollars to many thousands. Please post a new question with the coin's specific date and whether it has a mint mark on the back.

Do 3 silver winged dimes dated 1941 1943 and 1944 have any real value?

== == The WWII years were high production years for U.S. coins. Just about anything from these years -- pennies, nickels, dimes, etc. -- are considered common (to collectors). However, your dimes are made out of silver, so they will always have a value for the silver they contain. As of 10/2008 that value is about 90 cents apiece.

Is a 1 dollar silver certificate redeemable in real silver or copper clad silver?

Redemption of silver certificates for silver metal was discontinued in the 1960s when the price of silver was deregulated. The bills can still be spent for $1 each but are usually worth a bit more to a collector. The most common ones, dated 1957, are only worth around $1.50 to $2.00 retail, though. Please note there's no such thing as "copper clad silver". All US clad coins are made with copper centers clad in cupronickel alloy (dimes, quarters, and halves) or manganese brass (dollars). Also the only opposite to "real silver" would be "fake silver"!


What is a Morgan silver dollar worth 999 fine silver no date on coin or amount?

It's not a real Morgan silver dollar. It's a modern bullion piece (as indicated by the ".999 fine silver") that copies the Morgan design. The good news is that depending on the amount of silver it contains, it could be worth more than the melt value of a real Morgan. Morgan dollars contained about 0.77 oz. of pure silver, so if your piece is 1 oz it's worth about 1/3 more at melt. Of course, a real Morgan could also be worth MUCH more as a collectible depending on its date and mint mark, too!
