<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Broseph, post: 1804843, member: 57276&quot;]Ah, foreign coins are a different beast. I was talking about 90% silver. I saw a lot of canadian silvers in there, those are 80%. Some foreign coins have odd silver contents. For example, some silver canadian coins have 50% silver, like the dimes of 1967, but some of them have 80% silver and the same total weight! You cannot tell them apart without extensive measures.</p><p><br /></p><p>I some foreign coins have 72% silver like pesos. Others in the 30s, sterling silver sometimes. It&#039;s a real mess trying to value foreign coins for melt, so typically those lots don&#039;t do well.</p><p><br /></p><p>US 90% silver sells well, especially if the lot contains coins besides washington quarters, roosevelt dimes, and kennedy halves.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
