    Yes, and each "face dollar", be it 50 cent pieces or quarters, etc of their .800 silver, contains 0.6 tryo oz Ag. With silver at $23.80 US, that's $14.30 US or $19.30 Cdn at 1.35. So each face dollar is a little less than $20 scrap, not taking into account coin wear, which lessens the amount of Ag in the coins. I love scrap silver, both US and Canada. Nice haul!

    Yes, and each face dollar contains .6 troy oz of Ag, if it's after 1920. With Ag at $24 US, then each face dollar is worth about $14.40 US or $19.40 Cdn. You need a strong box to put that all in.
