Book Description
You are at a serious disadvantage when buying or selling pre-1965 U.S. silver coins without the "right" information with which to make smart decisions. Not knowing the value of the coin(s) that you are buying or selling would be bad enough. But if you are completely dependent on the honesty of the people you are dealing with, it is a potential recipe for a rip-off. Why? Because there are a fair number of "ethically challenged" dealers (a.k.a.crooks) mixed in with the honest dealers. Are you prepared to get cheated with the coins you are buying or selling because you can't tell which dealers are giving you the honest deal from the ones who aren't?This book contains THE information you need on 12 of the most popular 90 percent silver U.S. coins covering over six decades (from 1892 through 1964, even earlier for Morgan Silver Dollars). In-depth information with over 40 detailed pictures to help you identify and make intelligent decisions when you are buying (or selling) these silver coins at garage sales or flea markets, while browsing eBay or other online coin auctions, negotiating with a local coin dealer, shopping at coin shows where several dealers are present or searching on major dealers' web sites. You will also find valuable tips if you: 1) simply want to find out if the silver coins you possess might have great value; or, 2) help a friend or relative identify and price the silver coins they possess. For each of the 12 silver coins listed below you will discover: 1) the coin's size and weight; 2) the total mintage by year and mint; 3) the location of the mint mark; 4) the silver content for both the circulated and uncirculated versions; 5) the intrinsic (silver melt) value based on several silver spot prices ranging from $20 to $100 per ounce; 6) the identification of those silver dimes, quarters, half dollars and dollars having the greatest value (worth many multiples of their intrinsic value) while pointing out the more common/more affordable coins whose value is at or close to their intrinsic value; and 7) three different methods you can use to clean "dirty" silver coins to uncover their beauty.Be prepared for an in-depth education on these beautiful and interesting silver coins produced by the U.
