If .999 silver is at $16.00 per ounce, what is the going rate for .900 silver per ounce?

Thanks

.900 gets a premium IMO cause it's actual currency.

the .900 should get a premium since it doesn't seem to get milk spots like the .999 does.

For kicks, I've been sniping 90% silver half dollars for below melt all week at fleabay.

Could say 90% of $16 ($14.40), except that the other 10% is copper which is not free. Also, for worn coins, actual weight is relevant since an ounce minted isn't still all there.

Most dealer around here are paying 10.6 times $1 face or $10.60 per dollar.

The 999 fine SAE's are legal tender for one dollar but no one spends them just like no one spends 900 fine silver dimes, quarters, or halves. Also, ASE's sell for a higher premium than 900 fine junk silver coins.
