Junk Silver Unboxing & Mercury Dimes Vs. Roosevelt Dimes

- In this video I do a junk silver unboxing and I also compare silver mercury dimes to silver Roosevelt dimes. Junk silver is great for silver stacking. Junk silver is 90% silver US dimes, quarters, and half dollars from 1964 and earlier. Mercury dimes were minted from 1916-1945. Roosevelt silver dimes were minted from 1946-1964. $1.40 Face Value of junk silver usually equal 1 ounce of pure silver. If you multiply $1 FV by .723 you will also get the weight in silver. I ended up weighing both piles of junk silver dimes to find out which pile had more silver in it. Junk silver is also referred to as constitutional silver. I like silver stacking junk silver coins because they are very liquid. I like stacking junk silver dimes the best because they are the most fractional. I am very happy with this junk silver purchase and I cannot wait to pick up more junk silver in the future!

I understand that people like to use .715 x FV to calculate the amount of silver in junk but I prefer to use .723 and then see how much silver they have lost when I weigh them. $1.40 FV is the closest you can come to 1 ounce of silver. Have you seen my video on silver dimes?!? 👉🏽 th-cam.com/video/_LHzCWcNXrE/w-d-xo.html
Ok
if you want a nicer box cutter, check out the Milwaukee fastback, or fastback compact. home depot usually has them in-store. steer clear of the version with in-handle blade storage tho, as it's too bulky for pocket carry.
What would you recommend paying for 40% junk silver like 65-70 Kennedy Halves, or an Eisenhower?
I was thinking that since you said something about 13 times the face value of 90% silver. Since there is 50% less silver in those kinds of coins, would you recommend a decent price for 40% silver coins 6.5 times the face value?
Good info
I prefer Mercury over Roosevelt dimes. Not question at a glance that Mercs arent regular dimes.
I just love junk. They are like a storage of story of days past eh. Have a great weekend son. No picking yer nose now eh ! LOL.
Mercury dimes are better because silver Roosevelt dimes can be confused with the current Roosevelt dimes. Most people don't know the difference. But with Mercury's there's no question you've got something special.
I like Rossies for just that reason. I still find them pretty regularly at work.
Braden or just read the dates 😏🔥🐉
🌟EXCELLENT DEAL!! I absolutely LOVE♥️ MERCURY DIMES and their design. I have a couple that are worn, but they still hold a weathered beauty😊
Awesome...I'm glad you received them. Sorry about all the tape...I didn't want them to come loose in shipping and have them hear that coins were in there. Man, you've got to love 600 dimes 😀 That is a great addition to the stack! Thanks SD.
Talking Bullion these are great prices. I’d love to buy a couple tube of merc. Any chance you are still selling?
@@switch176 Send me an email. Thanks.

I love dimes, period, but I think the Marcs are so classy.
Thank you, nice pick up and price!
Nice pick-up, I love the dimes.
Great junk silver.✅ Thanks for showing us and giving info on the dimes.😎👍👍👌👌⛏⛏
Super nice my friend , I also have some 90% Silver Dimes , half dollar & some 90% silver dollars . They have a lot of history with them , no telling who had it & were it has been around the USA . Have a good one my friend , hope you & your family is all safe !!!!!
Excellent Video on Junk silver dimes. It seems like you got a great deal at the right time and place. Thanks for sharing. Out.
I love constitutional silver.Glad i stacked some before the new tax in Illinois. For $80 face there is a tax of $66.26 That's close to 1 dollar per ounce. Pure bullion is not taxed in Illinois, just 90% and less. Stupid tax!
Why did you buy from an online dealer? Lmfao. Independent sellers are the way to go.
Nice video love the junk keep stacking
Awesome SD...the King 👑 of Constitutional hooked you up 💥👍💥
Great addition. Love my constitutional silver 👍
Bro! Now you're stacking silver Fiat Destroyer style!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
GREAT Video and I have both but usually seek Rosies when I can find them Reasonable Thanks !!
I do stack junk silver and I feel roosevelt dimes are the best I feel at least what I have they tend to have that best weight due to wear over quarters and halves. Great video my friend 👍👍👍
Great video. I have been finding silver dime coin roll hunting
Just purchased $100 FV mercury dimes, can't wait!
Love me some constitutional silver! The cut in movie clips crack me up, keep 'em coming.
Great job. My first junk silver order arrived. 32 oz of just dimes.
Nice! Any silver you can get at this time is a major score.
wow sweet very cool great vid
We got 100$ FV of 50cent pieces. Yankee SWAP, RIP. It's my favorite silver of all the silver. The best hand feel and sounds so beautiful with piles to play with and stack.
Nice! I picked up some quarters at my lcs for 11.8x face on Tuesday, gotta see what he's at now! Lol
Great deal!
The Bread and Butter of Stacking for me!:))) Stay safe S.D.👍
Man I wish I could get a deal like that on junk silver. Everyone on EBay is charging an arm and a leg right now
I find that ebay always has abhorrent premiums, even when spot is around its normal range.
Eh, these guys give each other deals so they can name drop in the videos.
I went to the local pawn shop today and got some Kennedys for 8x face super cheap
Bet those prices are looking good now huh
great idea. i do dimes and quarters until lately. the premiums are bothering me.
Thx for your video men from Hamburg 🎉
New sub here, love the channel, awesome info, thank you.
Great content. Love the bump clips. I perfer “constitutional” over “junk”, sounds more regal for silver. Be safe Silver Dragon, best to you.
laughingcanine yes constitutional sounds better for sure! 🔥🐉
Very nice deal. I stack silver coinage from all over the world that I pick up at spot.
Walking Liberty half dollars for daaays and days!
A mixture or one denomination of pre-1965 90% silver coins adding up to a face value of $1.00. Each face value of one dollar will contain 0.715 troy ounces of fine silver.
I unboxed some amazing junk from Asia yesterday.
Mercury dimes are magic!
My LCS has rolles of dimes for 70 today. I got SE instead for 20.
Nice purchase my favorite coin is the mercury dime my aunt would give my brother and I one if we were good and I would find one here and there in pocket change any way I thought a roll had around 3oz plus in them of silver
I love the cut scenes
I don’t care what I get mercy or Rosie’s I will take anyone of them I just love looking through them that’s my passion , tell me we’re is the best place to get these coins, thanks 🙏.
Finally a video about junk silver. This has to be the best way of getting weight, starting off, or from a historical fact who held it. 1.20 face is awesome price to pay. If you want to sell them please let me know :) Keep all of these awesome videos coming!!! I love the FALCON!!!!!!! PS always go with Roseys Vs Mercs. weight is usually better
Silver Wookie many more to come 👍🏽🔥🐉
I love your junk bro 😂😂
Im 2 years late to the party but, I Just picked up my first ounce in constitutional silver a mix of quarters and dimes. I got a mercury dime which I thought was a cool find but I ended up getting one of the 1999 silver quarters which I didn't even realize existed!
👍⚪👍 nice dimes
I love Mercury Dimes. I'm saving those for my Grandbabies. I think Mercury Dimes Are Beautiful.
.723 is only valid for 1964 Kennedy half dollars in practice. Everything else has a lower value closer to .715 or .710 or even .695 depending on wear.
Would like to know how to get custom stamps made for my silver bars and coins??
Big Nick stampyours.com
Good video to watch it was.
Thanks to Bioshock 2. Time to listen to "Ten cents a dance" by Ruth Etting 1930
Ten cents a dance, that's what they pay me, gosh how they weigh me down.
Nice coins. I actually buy most of my junk silver by the Troy lb.
Might be the odd one here, but I like the barber dimes' design.
Premium on 90% is even higher than Eagles ugh!
The Zoltan I know, for sure! Supply & demand is real 😔
The Zoltan how. What coin shop is ripping u off
i'm probably an idiot.. but how do you calculate how much times face value you paid for a lot of dimes? I only ever figured out how much I paid for each individual dime and divided that by the .3617. then subtracted the spot of price when I purchased from that answer, so I know how much of a total premium I paid over spot. But how would I work backwards and figure out what multiplier over face-value I paid?
gnarxy you take the dollar amount and divide the FV (I paid $720 and it’s $60FV so you get 12x Face) 🔥🐉
What would you recommend paying for 40% junk silver like 65-70 Kennedy Halves, or an Eisenhower?
Cole Sessums As little as possible.
Cole Sessums spot always 🔥🐉
woow its would be nice to have all that ;) or is it worth to melt in to bars ?? or are them better as they are
Johnny Björkdahl always keep them like they are 👍🏽🔥🐉
@@SilverDragons47 ;) good to know ;) thx
I used to not like junk silver, main reason is I was paying to much for it from online dealers. I started buying from my LCS at lower prices just recently and realise how important it can be to have. I bought $29 face from my LCS just before the crash, the very next day he was out of all silver with exception of numismatic. I'm thankful to have my junk silver.
Yes silver dimes
I’d love to have got that deal! I’ve always calculated and thought that Junk silver as being $1.50 face = 1 Troy ounce though? Great video! 👍
It is a $1.40 face CT. Pretty cool...all those dimes 👍
1.40 for sure
i think of it as $1.50 to acoount for wear.
Same here 1.50 for ware should make a video on it dragons 🐉
Just ordered two rolls of mercury Dimes
Would you recommend stacking BU silver like 90% Washington quarters?
I would steer clear of of BU that's just code for supper high premiums never to be recovered.
No
FuzzyDan only if they are cheap 🔥🐉
Just subscribe . Good content 👍
Ive got an ammunition bag that weighs 100 lbs ,has all Merc dimes ... My fav dime is mercs...obviously ...
What's the weight on a Mercury Dime?
Made my first silver purchase yesterday. Picked up 50$ face for 600. Got 20 half dollars and the rest in dimes. Probably paid too much but that's what I get for waiting till a crisis.
I've always used .715 for junk silver. Always was under the assumption that .723 is for non circulated or lightly circulated
Dan Porath correct I start high and work down 😏🔥🐉
I got my first mercury dime from the coinstar reject tray 1944 S a new one
I also got a ton of mercury dimes, but I'm stacking roseys for now on. More silver is better
What do you think is a fair Price to pay for regular junk peace and morgan dollars...is $16.00 good right now
YES $16 per YES
david king yeah great deal 👍🏽🔥🐉
@@SilverDragons47 thanks budd
Junk silver is the best to own for most working people. When I was a kid we used to pick out the silver coins from change. My first job as a cashier I kept all the silver coins. As an adult I continued to do that. Over that time I was able to get close to $1,000 face value of silver for under $1,000. Even as recently as last fall a bank had 20 almost uncirculated 90% half dollars in their tray! I bought them for $0.50 each.
When I started buying silver, it was really cheap so I bought 100oz bars. When it got more expensive I moved to coins (Eagles & Pandas). Premiums started going up so I bought the cheapest silver possible which was 90% junk. Looking back I think it would have been better to only buy junk.
Just a few days before the physical market went crazy, I walked into a bullion dealer and he had over $2,000 face of junk half dollars in stock. The price was just over spot. He told me he was having problems selling it and offered it at spot. I wasn’t really interested in silver but I ended up getting 200 since I kinda love junk. Now he’s selling them at $7 over spot.
Those dimes are now $2.10 ea. on Apmex now. I was buying in the fall for an average $11.00 per $1- face. Sold some dimes to a friend for $1.80 ea. last week. I love Junk 90% Silver coins.
I prefer merc dimes but rosies always have more.silver in them from less ware
I just got some Kennedys today for 8x face... going to get a lot more tomorrow at my local pawnshop
kyle kinstler are those 90% 😮🔥🐉
@@SilverDragons47 they are
I just paid 22X face.
I love my junk but I will not be able to buy until May or June.
I mostly have Kennedy's but the Mercury dimes look the best. I feel, Just my two cents.
Curious about your arm tattoo wrap Dragons! 🐉
heidi habhegger it’s a full sleeve 😏🔥🐉
How much did u pay for all of those
Love em Trucks $720 🔥🐉
I love bread dimes
Do you owe George Lucas a roll of those dimes for the Star Wars clips? Nice pick up my man. I wish someone would sell me some junk silver here in Tennessee.
John Green lol 🔥🐉
My goodness all the silver making me go muahahahahahaha mix em all up
90% isn't the base of my stack but i'll say no stack is complete without it..
Or the Roosevelt's just had more gunk/dirt/oils on them adding weight.
Mercs are gorgeous but I buy Rossies for wieght.
Let's see u and takes race to a guardhouse box
Oh yes I got a roll of Canadian dimes for 90 cents a piece they are 80% thoe
After 2008 junk silver had a crazy high premium. For a long period it was cheaper to buy silver eagles vs US junk.
Not That Person yep people want fractional! 🔥🐉
Here in Minneapolis: the Northwest Coin Club Money Show has been cancelled for this year. I guess the dealers didnt want to lose money selling now, plus the venue called it off because of the virus of course. I love junk silver myself, Morgans, Peace, halves etc. I think our coins should be silver again and intead of a face value, the mint should just put the silver content & each day merchants & folks could see how much that amount was worth & proceed from there. Such as today a dime is worth 91.2 cents, round it up to a dollar. OR. put a face value on them such as a dime = $2.00 a quarter = $5.00 a 50 cent piece would be $10.00 a Morgan or Peace could be $20.00 & finally a Silver Eagle could be $25.00.
I prefer junk to anything.
Your, a Rich Boy.
U realize that’s probably a 50-100 Benjamin cause it’s gem and fbl which is really a harder to find one...? FYI
Casey Smith I had no idea 😮🔥🐉
Ok, so junk silver has a lot of good points to them. First off selling should not be subject to any taxes in most places. Also the buyer usually does not have to hold them for a period. Some places require LCS and pawn dealers to hold PMs for thirty days before reselling but not these coins. However much of this does not matter if this really is the SHTF. They are very recognizable and will become more so if the SHTF and their small size makes daily purchases easy. Large purchases will be done in gold or kilos of silver but groceries will need these small denominations and you only need to show what the purchase amount is. Can you imagine buying something with a ten oz bar and getting nine one oz rounds plus some junk silver for change in front of a crowd of strangers? I don't want to risk getting my head bashed in. So dimes and quarters are handy. Same with halfs and dollars, but the dollars are not based on face as they are a little heavier. On a side note, Rosies and Kennedy's are not as popular because they are both available in junk silver and clad which might confuse the common man. I for one think folks will learn very fast after the SHTF or they will be getting screwed left and right, so I don't really think this is an issue. Get the best deal you can as long as they are all junk silver and priced right.
12 times smoking hot deal given SHFT we in now.. I only have one mercy cause I found it walking my baby 7 years ago it was first piece of silver I ever had .. I wasn't awake so I didn't realize it's value. I don't buy Mercury because the one I found is special to me. Later walking my second baby I found a walking liberty half dollar at that point I was almost half awake... I started to stack nickels cause I didn't have much money which lead me to find a way to to make more so I could stack.. Now I have to stack cash my LCS is closed because the government says they are non essential. But I give Credit for island stamp and coin they stayed open until they were forced to close.
Try using .715, not 723.
Rosies all day 10:1 rosies to Mercs just my opinion
1 ounce round are much more better.
Hehe count dooku
James Cavaliere lol
People are ignorant and that's why I went half Mercury dimes. Some would think the Roosevelt dimes are only worth ten cents, never underestimate the stupidity of the average American. I have $50 face value of each plus $50 face value in silver Washington quarters. That should cover my Constitutional silver and I'm going to American Eagles next.
It’s not junk! $1.50 face value equals 1 ounce of silver. I’m taking a trip down to my LCS today. He has plenty of those
Noodlez33 $1.40
It is a $1.40. Each dime has 0.072339 troy ounces of silver. If you multiply that by 14, you get just over 1 ounce. Just want to make sure you know so the LCS doesn't get more 👍
Talking Bullion thanks. I paid $10.50 for $1 face value. Which is a good deal imo. Some dealer wanted $14 for $1 which is ridiculous. U gotta go find these old coin shops. Don’t deal with bullion dealers. Coin collectors have these old coins stashed up for awhile.
Blasphemy! You can't mix Rosies and Mercs in one bag!!!
Darth Stacker lol it’s done 🔥🐉
