there is NOT $2 of silver in a The nickel. Thats way WAY to over priced. Its worth about 40 cents in 35% silver and that site all wrong theres not $2 in mercury dime silver. it weighs 2.11 grams.

 

Well, then I guess there ain't $7.20 in a quarter either.....

 

Incorrect sir. Coinflation is updated daily and fairly accurate unless the spot price takes a 20% swing or something over the course of the day.

EDIT: Of course, war nicks don't sell to dealers or even collectors for the spot price. Just like 40% halves, they're discount silver and you should expect to be paid further back of melt than they'd pay for .900.

 

Right Lon, but a heck o' a lot more than 40 cents......

 

lmao.

 

Well, yeah, for sure. A roll will sell on ebay for $70ish, a little more maybe. Then after ebay fees and everything, you're still getting near $1.50 each.

It is also not to babysit. Look at all this kids threads he has created so far.

 

I thought our primary objective was to assimilate.

 

Well...that's a great find from circulation anyway you look at it.

 

Ricky, you can learn a few things around here.

Let me show you why a War Nickel has over $2 worth of silver.

A War Nickel weighs 5.00 grams. It is 35% silver so the silver in the War Nickel weighs 1.75 grams (5.00 grams X 0.35 = 1.75 grams).

There are 31.10 grams in one Troy ounce.

A War Nickel contains 0.05626 Troy ounce of silver (1.75 grams / 31.10 grams / Troy ounce = 0.05626 Troy ounce).

The spot price of silver at this moment is $39.84 per Troy ounce.

So the silver in a War Nickel is worth $2.24 (0.05626 Troy ounce X $39.84 / Troy ounce = $2.24155).

 

I'd like everyone to know that I will buy all war nickels at 40 cents a piece all day long, please PM me to set up the deal

 

The current melt on this is $2.27.
