What we buy
Bring the entire group before assuming a coin is only worth its silver content. Do not clean coins, remove them from holders or separate an inherited collection.
Silver coins we buy
We evaluate American Silver Eagles, Morgan and Peace dollars, 90% and 40% U.S. silver, eligible half dollars, quarters, dimes and war nickels, proof and commemorative coins, certified coins, Canadian Maple Leafs, eligible world silver, silver bars, ingots and rounds. Dates, mint marks, condition, rarity and collector demand are reviewed before a coin is treated only as metal.
Transparent evaluation
We identify coin types and silver content, review dates, mint marks, condition and certification, and weigh eligible bullion or constitutional silver. Pieces with possible collector value are examined before they are treated as melt.
Testing and equipment
XRF analysis may be used to help identify metal composition in eligible bullion or uncertain pieces. Testing is performed in front of you when appropriate. XRF is only one part of the evaluation; coin identification, condition and collector demand remain important.
