It's a common date and seems to lack any luster. It contains .36169 ozs. of silver.

I just sold it for $19.00.

 

Someone paid you $19 for that!!?? You really hammered them.

 

Melt value is $6.00. Common date and condition. If you can get $19.00 for that, I'd find more to sell if I were you.

 

Why would anybody melt an identifiable coin in reasonably fine condition?

 

Lack of knowledge, common date. You asked what the value is. I gave you melt. It's real value is: whatever someone is willing to pay you. In this case, $19.00.

 

I'm afraid of what this will start but here goes...
Prior to 1964 silver coins (dimes, quarters and halves) circulated freely. Then we went to clad coinage. Where have the billions and billions of silver coins gone? They were turned into banks for more than face value. The banks sent them back to the US Government and they were melted. We still do the same thing, just not on a large scale. There's an expression you need to know "Bad money drives good money out of circulation."

I believe this isn't the first time he has taken advantage of someone. Situations like this are the reason I don't like our B/S/T rule against posting comments directly to those threads. Peter and Doug say it's to prevent flame wars. Me? I think they're sissies and don't want us to fight back.

Hey, Chris Balls, what's your problem?

 

Melt ice-cream, not coins.

 

Obviously, your opinion of yourself is so low that you have to come on here and brag about how you ripped off some naive individual, just to boost your self-esteem.

 

The buyer wanted to buy the coin. That was my price. The buyer agreed. Case closed.

 

Thank you for proving my point.

 

they wouldn't... that is the lowest price the coin is worth. anything ontop of that is called " collector value"
