I remember back when I was a Kid..
Dimes, Half Dollars, & Quarters pre 1964 were "Real" Silver ..
Being an enterprising kid back then Silver prices exceeded the "Melt Value" for the change..
I would go allover town buy rolls of dimes and quarters at the banks and sort them..
Then I'd once I saved up abuncha them ride my bike over to the Jewelery & Pawn Shop..
He current prices posted on the board and take what ya got & weigh It
