[QUOTE="doug444, post: 1871528, member: 38849"]Junk silver traditionally means COINS only, not candlesticks and silverware, etc. :D And, it usually means dimes, quarters, and halves. It excludes war nickels (35% silver) and silver dollars, which contain 7% more silver than (say) four silver quarters, but for which you pay considerably more than a 7% premium. See [url="http://www.coinflation.com"]www.coinflation.com[/url] for details. Here is a graph of gold vs. silver price over the past ten years. I would rather have posted a 100-year graph, but could not find one without a lot of extraneous, confusing notes written all over it.
