The coin minted in 1970 that never circulated with silver content is the 1970-D Kennedy half dollar. While it was produced with a small number of coins containing silver, the majority of the 1970-D coins were made with a copper-nickel composition and were not released into circulation. Many banks still hold these coins, as they are considered collectible due to their limited mintage and unique composition.

When was the US 5 dollar bill first minted?

Never, because bills are not minted. Coins are minted, bills are printed. The first federally-issued $5 bills were printed in 1862. They were red-seal United States Notes, a series that continued for a century. Before that $5 bills were issued by states and local banks, and there were also federal "demand notes" in that denomination.

Where can you get a silver dollar?

True silver dollars haven't been minted since 1935 so you'd have to buy one from a dealer or collector. As of 05/2010 expect to pay a minimum of about $15 for one of these coins. If you're using the term "silver" dollar to refer to modern clad copper-nickel or brass dollars, most banks should be able to provide them. These coins are common and are only worth $1.

How much are silver dollars worth to buy at banks?

You generally can't buy silver dollars or any older silver coins at a bank. Because the value of the coin greatly exceeds the face value of the coin, if someone wanted to deposit a silver dollar they would only give them $1 for it, when the coin is worth at least $30 in silver content. Because of this few people ever deposit silver coins and the ones that are deposited are bought by the bank employees as curiosities. The only "silver" dollars you might find at a bank are Eisenhower dollars, but these contain no silver and are sold for $1, but since many people keep them as curiosities, there are few banks that carry them in stock, but at some banks you might find a few. Some banks do sell silver proof sets and other collector coins, but the prices that they sell it for is much more than it would cost you to go to a coin shop and buy the exact same set for.

What does uncirculated mean on a Morgan silver dollars?

Uncirculated means that the coin has never been handled and used in commerce. An uncirculated coin may still have some bag marks on it from when it was taken to banks but shouldn't show any wear on the surface of the coin (for example, on the reverse, all the Eagle's breast feathers should be visible and crisp, on a circulated coin those feathers are often quickly worn down). Uncirculated coins for older coins usually trade at a premium over the silver content in them, but keep in mind that some unscrupulous dealers will mark coins that are lightly circulated as uncirculated but if you take them to a reputable grading company such as PGS they will grade them as almost uncirculated.
