Buy or Sell Junk Silver Coins in Nashville

What Are Junk Silver Coins?

Junk silver coins are U.S. and foreign coins that contain real silver but have little to no collectible or numismatic value. They are valued primarily for their silver content, making them popular with bullion investors, silver stackers, and survivalists. The term “junk” simply refers to the lack of rarity—not the condition or worth of the silver.

90% US Silver Coins

Most junk silver refers to U.S. dimes, quarters, half dollars, and silver dollars minted in 1964 or earlier, which contain 90% silver. The value of these coins is based on the total silver weight multiplied by the current spot price of silver.

Other Common Types of Junk Silver

In addition to 90% silver coins, we also buy and sell other silver-content coins, including:

  • 40% Silver Kennedy Half Dollars (minted from 1965–1970)
  • 35% Silver War Nickels (minted from 1942–1945)
  • 80% Canadian Silver Coins (dimes, quarters, half dollars, and silver dollars minted in 1967 or earlier)

These coins are highly recognizable and widely traded based on silver content alone.

Coins for junk silver are often traded in bulk (junk silver bags, rolls or stacks). Since there’s a nominal premium placed on these silver bullion coins, they can easily be bought by collectors and investors alike. Investors buy these coins to protect their assets from inflation, subsequently during economic uncertainty, and likewise for profit if they believe that the price of silver will increase.
