The BEST & WORST Junk Silver Coins: Tier Ranking [Constitutional Silver Coins]

I believe the mercury dime is also a palladium piece

YES! Just bought 40 walking liberties. I check Consumer Reports after a purchase, lol. But I remember thesfrom my childhood. Not that I could keep one long. Candy was better then.

Shhhh dont tell anyone how great franklins are. Still working on my album! I also stack them and try and learn as much as I can about the man

I have a MS70 gold mercury dime, pretty expensive for 3.1g

Where would you put the trade dollars?

Pretty solid ranking. I might bump Morgans to A because peope recignize them and often assume they are worth more than they actually are. Not S tho, since there are fakes.

Thanks

The Peace Dollar is my favorite Coin design hands down. But r the Mercury Dimes are a very close second. Thanks for sharing.

😊Thanks

What about sitting liberty

Dedication

Maybe picking older coins that don't look like feature-less slugs would make them more appealing.

My Grandpa gave me a Morgan when I was 11. I took it to the bank and got 4 quarters to buy candy.😭😭😭
When Grandma passed, I found a Morgan in her things. Still have that one. 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽

Silver picker knows.

Climate change obviouslyyyyyyyyyyy

I LIKE THE FRANKLIN'S, I REMEMBER THEM WHEN I WAS A KID. I LIKE THE STANDING LIBERTY TOO. GOD BLESS.

What is your opinion of Canadian junk silver (I’m Canadian)? Any opinion on saving copper coins?

I also stacking Franklin halves for the exact same reason - my grandfather gave me one when I was little!

I find my washington quarters and rosies in pocket change. I buy walking liberty on purpose.

love the video informational too just started buying old silver coins its a addiction lol

In my opinion the mercury dimes are the most beautiful coin ever made from the mint hands down.

Sorry. Morgan's are beautiful. Have to say you are wrong. And Frankies are another fav of mine. However, your presentation was informative and helpful. Thank you ☺

I don’t need to watch this anymore than u hit this is an S!

I mostly agree. Mercuries are undisputably the best junk silver. It ticks all of the boxes. I would only make slight changes to your ranking. I'd move the Kennedy down to C and the standing liberty to B, but that's the only change my list would have.

I'd put the Kennedys in the D row. Just not a fan.
The standing liberty quarters in the B. The B row really depends on the wear whether it's appealing or not.
Other than those you are ... "spot on". 🙄🤣👍
Walking halve's are my favorite.

Walking liberty is the best , hands down.

Bravo....well done!

I just bought 5 rolls of mercs for $108 ea and I completely agree. For the price, as a fractional bartering tool, the beauty of the design, there are fewer slicks than other coins from the same era, and the fact you can pick them up as cheap as the less desirable constitutional silver, it's #1!

Franklins all day for me

Great video! I made a video like this after I kept seeing character ranking lists. Looks like you did one before me!

Mercury dime illustrates freedom of thought

You need to get Palladium Mercury

Thank you for putting those Franklins in the S tier. You nailed it. It's that open field that gives them their charm. And they're not as worn down as the previous halves. I can buy them online as circulated but they can still be AU.

Like the 40%. 90 halves nice clean ones unc at junk or close. Bought morgàns when were 4 x face not going to buy anymore 🤗. Some clad dollars wouldn't hurt to save case s..f

The s ranks would be mine as well

Franklins are by far my favorite 90% coin the obverse speaks volumes

Went through my 5 dollar roll of mixed dimes, all of my mercs are ww2 era, awesome

I’m diggin your tier system. Just grabbed a bunch of mercs today

One of the things I hate the most about Roosevelt dimes is that FDR is on them. Also, the only fake coin that ever ended up in my stack was a Morgan, so your assessment is spot on. I would put Washington quarters in the S tier, though, especially 1964 quarters. I can usually pick them up in AU condition, and get the best value for my fiat dollar.

16$ mercury dimes in my stack👍🇨🇦🇹🇷

When silver went to 50 so many beautiful coins were melted down. Sad

I was sent 1965 dimes before as junk silver. Hey Houston we got a problem.

Just subscribed thanks for the video keep stacking

Great review. As about $150 face in my Quarters are proof 90% State I value quarters much higher. But then I probably have only a couple of bucks in the bog standard ones.

In 2009 or so when silver was in the $40 range- when you sold junk silver, it didn't go by face but weight.

If you sold in bulk it got weighed and that was how business was done.

Just something to keep in mind...

No, there is no disagreement, the Peace Dollar is by far superior to the Morgan dollar. I think it's the best looking coin the US mint has ever made.

The truth is, you hate quarters

I used to think buffullo's were also 35% and that Ike clad were 40%, the good news is I have about 1,000 of them ( buffallo ) some w/ dates slabbed no dates at least, I could at least get a loaf of bread during the apocalypse, and yes my second comment on this video as I only stated a gaurdhouse recently and 97% of my silver is 999. Or .9999 ya know.
