Silver Coin Calculator Measures Melt Value of Circulating Coins

The latest addition to Silver Coins Today includes a new US Silver Coin Calculator that measures the silver content or melt value of a dozen circulating silver coins issued in the United States.

The silver calculator is unique in that it enables buyers, sellers or anyone simply curious to check a coin’s value by entering the quantity of coins, and tally results — if so desired — across multiple coins.

The coin tool also has an adjustable silver spot price that is useful for speculating on price changes. Plus, an adjustable bid/ask percentage spread for those who are interesting in selling or purchasing silver coins at various buying and selling rates.

The Silver Coin Calculator displays the total silver weight of all coins in troy ounces and grams.

The following more modern US circulating coins have silver content and are included in the calculator:

Silver Coin Type	Year of Issue
Jefferson War Nickel	1942-1945
Mercury Dime	1916-1945
Roosevelt Dime	1946-1964
Washington Quarter	1932-1964
Walking Liberty Half Dollar	1916-1947
Franlin Half Dollar	1948-1963
Kennedy Half Dollar	1964
Kennedy Half Dollar	1965-1970
Morgan Dollar	1878-1921
Peace Dollar	1921-1935
Eisenhower Dollar	1971-1976
Silver Eagle (1 oz)	1986-2008

 

An important fact to remember about the calculator is it measures a coin or coins silver value content, not its numismatic value. Rare or better conditioned coins will always exceed their silver melt value.
