<p>[QUOTE=&quot;cmbdii, post: 4856, member: 655&quot;]We called those &quot;V nickels&quot;&nbsp; when I was a kid.&nbsp; They do indeed still show up from time to time.&nbsp; A lady was telling me about getting rolls of silver dimes in payment at a grocery store when some of her elderly&nbsp; customers rolled their change and took it in to spend. </p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; On the last page of Coin Values (formerly Trends) there&#039;s a table showing the melt value of US silver coins and cautioning people not to turn them in for face value.&nbsp;&nbsp; The table is handy, but the caution from the editors made me wonder if maybe there are some people collecting the modern junk metal coins who don&#039;t know that silver is valuable.&nbsp; I guess I wouldn&#039;t be surprised to learn that&#039;s the case.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
