How much is Old Silver dollars worth?
My husband bought 7 silver dollars dateing 1848,1921, 1906, 1895, one does not have a date on front but, on back has the number 999, the last one number is worn but looks like 1901. he paid $10.00 for the coins. does any one know what they are worth or how to go about finding out? without someone trying to rip us off. my husband loves to buy old thing without knowing anything about it. (i guess thats why he has me..ha ha)
There's a problem here. The US did not make silver dollars in the years 1905 -1920, so that leaves the 1906 out. The 1848 is Very Rare, only 15,000 were minted. 1895 are very scarce in all varieties, and $10.00 for all is too good to be true. A single silver dollar, even a worn one, is worth about $12 just for its silver content. Something sounds very fishy here. The .999 on the back of the one makes me very suspicious that what he bought was a bunch of replica silver dollars. By law, they are supposed to carry the word 'copy' somewhere on the coin. They are sometimes plated with .999 silver. The Total Silver value in all 7 would be worth a couple bucks at the most.
