Historical Information
The story of these coins begins in 1836, when the US Mint standardized its silver coinage to a 90% silver, 10% copper composition. This formula proved so successful that it remained unchanged for nearly 130 years, ending only in 1964 when rising silver prices forced the removal of precious metals from circulation coinage. Today, Southwest Florida collectors and investors actively seek these circulated silver coins, recognizing their dual value as both historical artifacts and precious metal investments.
Notes
While commonly called “junk silver” due to their circulated condition, these constitutional silver coins offer exceptional value for bulk precious metals investors. Their guaranteed 90% silver content, combined with their status as authentic US Mint products, makes them a trusted investment vehicle. We invite you to visit our Naples, FL showroom to examine these historic pieces and discuss building your position in pre-1964 US silver coinage.
