i have a 1943 silver colored dime, but i dont think it is silver , its the other metal they used back thenit looks like lady liberty is on the frontand sais EPLURIBUS UNUM with the letter D in the left side
It's worth about $1 for its metal content. The "D" is a mint mark indicating it was struck in Denver.
To set things straight:
1. It's silver. There was no other metal used for dimes up till 1964.
2. Please look at your pocket change - ALL American coins have the words E PLURIBUS UNUM on them so that doesn't help ID any U.S. coin.
3. Please turn on your spelling-checker.
War Nickel, or silver nickels started in 1942 through 1945. 1942 produced both nickels out of nickel and nickels from silver. The non silver ones do not have the large mint mark while the silver ones have the large mint mark.
In the context of the Holocaust ZOB refers to Żydowska Organizacja Bojowa which is Polish for Jewish Combat Organization. It was the left wing Jewish organization that played the key role in the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising of 1943. (it is often said that the role of other resistance groups in the Uprising was played down in postwar Poland, but that is very hard for a non-expert to assess).

It was not the aryan race that 'morally superior killed' millions of non-aryans, it was one party - the Nazis whom of which most of them were not aryan, who killed non-aryans because it has been suggested that 'Hitler' did not like non-aryans
Yes, this is the Roosevelt design- introduced in l945 and still in use with non-silver content. The Mercury dime over its life-span was all silver- that is .900 fine.
It seem there no answer to the question that ask " missing number " I have a missing number on non-silver dime with large date that read " 196-" so it either 1968 or 1969 . any comment who have one of them .
Numismedia lists the value around $7 dollars for clad(non-silver) and $65 for silver proof sets as of a 5/2012.
No US dime exist dated 1804 that is not the Draped Bust type or has the phrase "One Dime" on the reverse, the 1804 dime does Not have a denomination any were on the coin. The 1837 Seated Liberty dime is the first year "One Dime" appears on the reverse of a 10 cent coin and in 1892 the Barber series also used a very similar reverse design. You may have a 1904 Barber dime with so much wear the date is not clear. Take a good look at the coin and post new question.
You most likely have what's called a lamination error. The value of a delaminated clad dime is around $6 to $8. This error can happen when the copper-nickel cladding comes off one or both sides of a "sandwich" dime, quarter, half, or dollar. Lamination errors can also happen with non-clad coins but it occurs less often. The cladding can come off before or after the coin blank is struck with its design, and it can be difficult to determine when.
Maybe it was treated with a chemical that reacts with copper. The steel pennies were 1943 only.
Yes. All pre-1965 silver quarters are currently worth at least $6 for the silver, while modern copper clad quarters are worth face value.
Yes, silver is near record highs and in silver content alone a dime is worth close to $2, quarters close to $4.75 and half dollars close to $10. Of course, US proof sets are worth more to a collector than just the bullion value of the coins. But yes, silver proofs are worth much more than non-silver or 'clad' proof sets and proof sets are nearly always worth more than an uncirculated set of the same year.
Of course not. Fe (iron) and steel are attracted to magnets. Silver is not
It may be a wrong planchet error ( 1 cent coin struck on dime planchet) but I doubt it, take it to a dealer or collector to make sure.
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.
Silver is non-ferrous, meaning it does not contain significant amounts of iron. Ferrous materials contain iron, while non-ferrous materials do not. Silver is a precious metal known for its luster and conductivity.
