Questions re 90% silver

In the last few years, I found over 30 silver dimes in Coin Star machines. Including a 47 P which appears Unc., and two 20 Ps which appear to be XF. Is there a premium for them? I don't collect this stuff.

Assuming you meant 1920s, those are Mercury dimes and I assume there is a little numismatic premium in that grade. Same possible for the 47P in uncirculated.
Of course, they all have a big premium over face due to their silver content.
Yes the silver dimes are worth $1.75 to $2 each.

Nice finds.
They worth BV.
Wow... Over thirty silver dimes in the last few years.... That is a lot of silver dimes. I have certainly found a few in the Coinstar reject slot.... nowhere near that amount. You have a busy machine there....or several. Cheers, RickO
Ricko - Four were solitary finds. The rest were from a haul I got several months ago which included a 1907 D Dime, which I wrote about here. It was ridiculous; 26 or 27 silver dimes, $2-$3 in circulating U.S. coins, and a 2 cent Euro coin. You'd think someone would have noticed this before I saw it; especially the pendejo who put all of these coins in the machine in the first place.
