Question by Silver17: If the US enters hyperinflation, can silver coins be used as money?
I have silver coins such as the American Eagle, Buffalo, and Canadian Maples. The us constitution has the coinage act, which states that copper and silver coins are considered as money to pay off debt. Does anyone know if silver coins are circulated us coins can be used to purchase goods during hyperinflation? Thank You for your answers!
Best answer:
Answer by Spotty J First of all, nothing in the constitution forces anyone to accept anything specific in payment of debts -- that's between you and whoever you owe money to. The only thing the government forces people to do with respect to money is to pay taxes to the government with U.S. dollars, and accept payment from the government in US dollars. Everything else is a private affair. We standardize on the currency that the government collects and spends because it would be pointless and inefficient to do anything else.
In the case of hyperinflation, we'd still all be using the usual currency, it would just take more of it to buy stuff. No, people are not going to start spending collectible silver coins as cash. Actually, people would hoard such things in a high-inflation scenario, not spend them as they would be a way to retain value. Canadian coins are not and will not be legal tender in the U.S. in any circumstance -- though again, "legal tender" refers to what the government collects and spends -- any private business is free to accept anything you have to offer including your dirty laundry, if they are willing to accept it as payment.

Question by tony: what US silver dollar coins were made 1900. I have one coin from 1900 and can't figure out the name of coin?
I have one coin from 1900 and can't figure out the name of the coin, It is a silver dollar. In front of coin it says liberty in god we trust and has the date 1900. And has a women standing up with her hand out. And in back of coin it says United states of America. 1 oz fine silver one dollar, I know for sure is is not a Morgan dollar.
Best answer:
Answer by jabbotuk It sounds like a commemorative coin - legal tender but not standard issue - because standard issue would not bear the inscription "1 oz fine silver".

Question by Beth: Any good places to find or buy junk silver coins?
I'm looking for junk silver in quarters, dimes, and copper pennies. Here's some places I have already and let me know if you have other suggestions, thanks.
Grocery store change
Banks
Laundry mat business
Coin collectors
website mint companies
Best answer:
Answer by curtisports2 Well, what are you looking to pay, face value or the going rate?
For face value, you can try going through your change or sorting through bank rolls. This isn't going to yield much. With high prices back in the news again like 1980-91, the average person is paying a lot more attention to their change. Sorting of bank rolls has picked up.
Unless you own the laundromat. good luck finding an ignorant owner who doesn't know about silver coins.
As for collectors, they expect to get near 'melt'. Websites charge a premium above 'melt'.
So, what are you willing to pay? I'd be happy to unload my stash of 'junk' silver for an ounce.

Question by flipperr: Silver coins?
What holds more value for silver coins, coins that are new or old coins? I have a set of both old and new but I want to know which one hold more value.
Also is the value of silver based on the "ounce" or "type of coin" that goes into circulation?
Best answer:
Answer by Taiping It depends on which is the rarest and the grade of the coin. There are no circulating silver coins. The silver value is far more than face. Most countries in the mid 1960 stopped striking silver coinage for general circulation. When it come to bullion coins such as the silver eagle with a face value of it sells for at least 18 to 20 times that, then it is the one ounce of silver in it unless it happens to be a low mintage or special one, that had few minted. Another thing what do you mean by old, old is the 1800's and before.

Question by sagen: What do you need to make gold/silver coins at home?
I have started refining gold and am having trouble finding all the tools to make my own coins or tokens at home. I know you need a bench press and blank cutter but and upper and lower die. But where do you get them? And what are the steps to make something to be proud of. Not some back porch hammer slapped junk. I want to put my sons name on them so they must look very good! Can you tell me how AND where to get my needed tools?
Best answer:
Answer by muncie birder The Greeks made absolutely beautify coins using hand cut dies, a hand cut glob of silver or gold and a very heavy hammer. The tetradrachmas of Syracuse were absolute works of art and coin collectors today are willing to pay thousands for them. As for where to obtain dies already made, you might call Silvertown in Winchester, In and ask they where they get their dies made. They actually will make the coins for you if you wish. My company had some made by them. I have one.

Question by srt4 stage3: value of silver coins?
what is the value of a 1950 jfk half dollar,( dont say 50cents i know i can read, what i mean is does it have any extra worth). Also what is the value of a silver quarter from 1964
Best answer:
Answer by Taiping The 1950 1/2 dollar is a Franklin 1/2 not a JFK 1/2. So you got something wrong here. If a Franklin 1/2 the mint mark if any is on the bell side under the letter E in states. The 1950 1/2 has a collector value if it grades at least extra fine and above around or so in almost uncirculated. If a JFK 1/2 I need its date. The 1964 quarter is made of 90% silver and has a collector value only in mint state. In circulated grades it is worth around 5 to 6 times face for the silver.

Question by tutock: I have several estados Unidos Mexicano coins from 1981-1998 what are they worth?

2 0 pesos 1984 gold in color
6 pesos 1985

2 pesos 1985
4 pesos 1985
2 pesos 1985
3 pesos 1985
1 pesos 1998
and one 1981 diez pesos
Are they worth anything as far as converting them to US dollars or even to a coin collector??
Best answer:
Answer by redlemon65 In Dec. of 1994, the Mexican govt devaluated their money. All coins/currency that was minted/printed before that date became valueless after the conversion time expired. All of the coins listed that were minted before 1994 cannot be exchanged for USD and the 1998 2 peso coin is worth around 20 cents. The others are so common they aren't worth anything to a collector and they are not silver.
