Bullion coins are gold and silver coins that are valued by the weight of their precious metal. They are guaranteed of weight and purity and collectors typically acquire them to store wealth or hedge against inflation. Because they are measured based on their precious metal weight, bullion values can fluctuate based on the daily price of gold & silver.
Starting in 1986 with President Reagan and his mint director, Donna Pope, these pure .999 silver 1 ounce coins are legal tender and are extremely popular with investors. The obverse (front of the coin) has a beautiful depiction of Lady Liberty based on the classic Walking Liberty Half Dollar.
With a purity of .9999 and very attractive, we always love to buy these great 1 ounce coins and aim to keep them in stock due to their popularity. The Royal Canadian Mint has recently began their Wildlife series and Birds of Prey releases.

With a run from 1916-1947, these 90% silver half dollars remain extremely popular and in high demand. Depending upon the date in condition, values can vary, but we are always glad to purchase them. The key dates, or most valued, in the "Walker" half series are 1921, 1921D (Denver Mint), and 1921S (San Fransicso Mint) due to low mintages.

Also known as junk silver, any dime, quarter, or half dollar produced 1964 and prior, is 90% silver. We buy, sell and trade these very often and are happy to make an offer based upon current silver prices. Most Roosevelt dimes, unless proof or very high grade, produced from 1946 to 1964 would be considered bullion and desired mostly for metal content value. Likewise, the majority of 1964 JFK half dollars are considered bullion due to the high mintage that year. Also, most later date Washington quarters, excluding errors or double dies, are bullion in decades leading up to and including the 1960s. The exception for this is the 1932D (Denver Mint) and 1932S (San Fransisco Mint). Because of low mintages those dates and mint marks, the 1932D and 1932S quarters are key dates with numismatic value. After 1964 quarters and dimes had no silver content. However, half dollars from 1965-1970 contained 40% silver content. The only nickels the U.S.produced with any silver content are known as War Nickels, produced from 1942-1945. These nickels contained 35% silver, and were introduced to remove nickel, which was a critical war material. Many of our clients purchase rolls of 90% silver dimes, quarters, and halves. We offer volume discounts on larger purchases of 90% silver often, as with other bullion coin purchases.
