What is the silver content of a 1948 South African 5 Shilling coin?
You are asking about a 5 Shilling coin from South Africa (KM#31). The coin is 38.8mm in diameter, weighs 28.28 grams and is 80% silver, giving it an ASW (Actual Silver Weight) of 0.7273 troy ounces. With the price of silver at US$18.72 (as of April 30, 2010), the "melt value" of this coin is US$13.61. The obverse (front) of the coin has a portrait of King George VI and the words "GEORGIVS VI REX IMPERATOR" (Latin for "George the Sixth, King and Emperor"). The reverse (back) has an image of a springbok (a deer common in South Africa) with the words "SOUTH AFRICA", the date, and "SUID-AFRIKA" (Afrikaans for "South Africa") above the image and "5 SHILLINGS" below it. 300,000 of these coins were produced for circulation in 1947 (originally in commemoration of the Royal Visit of King George VI to South Africa), and another 5,600 were produced in Proof. According to the Standard Catalog of World Coins, it is worth US$12.50 in Very Fine condition, US$15.00 in Extremely Fine condition, US$20.00 in Uncirculated condition, and US$45.00 in Proof. However, since the silver value is so high at the moment, I suspect that these prices somewhat undervalue the coin.
