What happens to Canadian coins in US circulation?

They generally simply get spent as US coins. If the coins are pure nickel or plated steel (like most modern Canadian coins are) they will get trapped on magnets when ran through a coin sorter and then either exchanged for the equivalent value in US dollars by the bank/sorting company or given to employees/customers who are going to Canada. But the coins that aren't magnetic are simply spent like US coins as they have the same diameter and roughly the same purchasing power.

How much silver does a 1965 Canadian dime have in it?

If you're referring to a 1965 American dime, none.

All 1965 and later US dimes and quarters, and 1971 and later halves, are made of a 3-layer "sandwich" containing only copper and nickel. They don't contain any silver, so they don't have any extra value unless you have an uncirculated or proof coin in its original packaging.

If you're referring to a 1965 Canadian dime, it contains 1.864 gm of silver. These coins weighed 2.33 gm and were 80% silver.

Fifty cent coin bigger than one dollar?

Many years ago coins contained an amount of metal roughly equal to their face value, minus a tiny amount for the government to make a profit minting them. That meant that each coin's size was determined by how much each metal was worth. E.g. a cent contained one cent's worth of copper, a quarter contained 25¢ worth of silver, etc. In addition, dollars were also silver and they were much larger than halves - 38 mm vs. 31 mm in diameter.

About 50 years ago the cost of precious metals such as silver started to rise as demand increased. Silver coins became worth more to melt as scrap metal than to spend as money and people started hoarding them. To prevent collapse of their coinage systems many governments, the U.S. included, "decoupled" their coinage from precious metals. That's why dimes, quarters, and halves are now made of copper-nickel instead of silver.

Because coins no longer contained silver there was no economic reason to make them any particular size. However, the new dimes, quarters, and halves had to be compatible in vending machines so those coins were made the same size as the old silver ones. But no dollar coins had circulated for years so the Mint decided to make the new dollars smaller and lighter than before so they'd be more convenient to use and cheaper to manufacture.

Remember that some lower-denomination coins are larger than higher-denomination ones if they were made of different metals. Copper and nickel were less expensive than silver was, which is why dimes have always been smaller than cents and nickels.

Hope that helps.

Precious-metal prices change every day so any specific answer posted here would be out of date almost immediately. While it's not Answers.com policy to say "use the Internet", that's the best approach in this case. You can check a site such as kitco.com, CNNMoney, etc. for the latest spot price of gold, then add a couple of percent to account for the fact that the Maple Leaf is a proof coin with the added imprimatur of being issued by a major government.

What is the value of a 1915 Canadian Halfpenny?

Such a coin does not exist.

Canada has not used the British sterling currency system since the mid-19th century, and has never issued a Halfpenny or half cent coin since Confederation.

Alternatively, you may have a privately minted Halfpenny token.
