    Buy the ANA Grading Guide, and securely put your wallet away, immediately if you believe these are better than F12. They look like a pile of G4-G6 coins from the limited obverse image.

    Spot silver, a buck or so a pop I'd reckon is all they're really worth. I don't see a solid VG in the bunch.

    At silver spot I'd say thay are worth about $14.50 for the lot.

    I buy them like that all the time in batchs of melt coins.

    I suppose they might make fillers for albums, but that's about it, sorry.

    If you like them, buy them, but they aren't worth much of anything over their silver content.
    "Lenin is certainly right. There is no subtler or more severe means of overturning the existing basis of society(destroy capitalism) than to debauch the currency. The process engages all the hidden forces of economic law on the side of destruction, and it does it in a manner which not one man in a million is able to diagnose."
