How It Works

This calculator multiplies the number of each coin type by its Actual Silver Weight (ASW) in troy ounces, then multiplies the total silver weight by the current spot price. Pre-1965 dimes, quarters, and half dollars are 90% silver. Kennedy halves from 1965–1970 are 40% silver. War Nickels (1942–1945) are 35% silver. American Silver Eagles contain exactly 1 troy ounce of .999 fine silver. The ⭐ Special & Collector Editions section includes proof coins, commemorative issues, and anniversary editions — these are collector coins, not intended for circulation.

Circulated vs. Uncirculated: Circulated coins have slight wear, reducing their silver weight by about 1%. The circulated weight is used by default for a more conservative estimate. Toggle to uncirculated weights if your coins are in mint condition.

Rule of thumb: $1.00 face value of 90% silver coins contains approximately 0.715 troy ounces of pure silver. That means roughly $1.40 face value equals one troy ounce.
