Pre-1964 dimes, quarters and half dollars - 90% silver. Everything else is military scrip.
Even nickels are now worth about 8 cents. Nickel coins are 25% nickel and 75% copper. Nickel prices have been going up due to the Russia-Ukraine war. Russia was the largest exporter of raw nickel in the world before the war. I know, 8 cents isn't much, but still good to know.
It's true. But I'd rather have a dime worth $2 today... $20 soon... $200 in a few years.
Can't argue that.
