A pre-65 US dime is a established amount of silver, same for the pre-1920, 6d. The good thing about junk silver is that it is money returned to circulation.. In the not to distant future, you might be able to fill your gas tank with two silver quarters but a Kugerrand would pose a problem.
Coin rarities complicates things so stay away from proofs and rare date "rounds"
Up to 1920 they are .925 Sterling Silver. 1920-1946 they are .500 silver so still have a scrap value. .999 silver is too soft, hence sterling being .925 alloyed with copper to make it harder wearing. The crown will be worth around £20-£25 as it is in better grade. The others are worn so will only be worth the scrap silver value.
I got a load of old UK coins in a charity shop a few months ago, for £10.00, Got quite a few silvers.
Those UK coins are gorgeous!
+Tyberius Fox I know, I have fell in love with pre decimal British coins, and have been buying on ebay like crazy, somebody please stop me...
Funny, my collection is British as I'm a Brit but I've bought a walking liberty and I want a Kennedy half dollar. My favorite U.K. Coins are the florins. If you want any current currency let me know! Maybe we could swap or something? 🙂
I think you should see some gorgeous british coins, these are well worn.
I wouldnt consider any of them.
The 1st crown - Jubilee Head -weighed would have collectable value which would be higher than silver weight... It's not all junk.
As far as the UK coins are concerned, you've missed out the double florin. It was minted between 1887 and 1890. The value of these coins are way above the scrap value.
They’re my favourite. I have several of the ‘barmaids curse’ lol. Beautiful piece of silver.
Yes, dont clean coins or you will ruin any value by 90%. The only time I would clean a silver coin is if it is high grade but has badly toned over the years. Jewellers silver dip can be used to remove unsightly toning without damaging the coin, it will bring it up shiny without scatching it.
Great vid fella, these old coins can be stunning, great collection.
Thanks. Yes, they are really nice. Back from the old days when money was real money... ;-)
@@TheModernSurvivalist exactly.
when money was actually worth something.
I like seeing different coins from around the world and learn about their silver content history. It's a shame the banks are pushing everyone into a cashless society. Coins were even removed from casinos years ago. Our virtual reality all on a screen.
+Domo The gov't wants you to spend, spend, spend to keep up the growth so they can kick the can just a little further down the road. Easier to spend chips, tokens, clad, bills, and especially credits on a screen or credit cards than real money i.e silver/gold.
+Silver Rush Thats one point, but the FAR most important one is this: With silver (and gold) you had real money, something of real value that someone had to go and mine, you cant just make it up. With virtual money and fiat money in general, its just created out of thin air. When you exchange your labour and goods for something that was created out of thin air by someone, that someone owns you. That someone would be the super rich who own the banks and large corporations. Ahh.. yes,its sad, but its better to know the truth.
I agree that the gov't should switch back to Silver & Gold for money, but I don't think anyone "owns" me, just because I use Fiat money...
@@TheModernSurvivalist apart from bitcoin to that has to be mined as well 🙂
Great video, thanks!
Interesting, but all such coins are long out of circulation and thus fairly rare, unfortunately. Not like the US situation where you can do this roll hunting thing!
great video, very interesting, thank you
Welcome to see our coins
Those are awesome looking coins! It's too bad we can't find any of those here in the US... :(
I used to spend most of those coins when I was a kid. It was proper money in those days, unlike today it's all rubbish.
All Victorian Crowns are collectible and fetch a good price if you’re lucky enough to find one please don’t scrap it of you’ll lose a lot of money .
My British silver coins are quite beautiful, I wouldnt classify them as junk.
So it’s that including 1920? Or all of UK coinage from 1920 is 50%? I wonder as I am trying to go through my coins and I have a lot of 1920 not sure which pile I should add them to. Thanks
1st half of 1920 was 92.50% second half was 50%... No idea how to tell which is which, safer to just find 1919 or earlier
@@RolyTheHolyPaladin
None of the 1920's are sterling, they are all 50%.
I have a One shilling coin from 1914

Hello sir how are you
Information this coin please help me actual price tell me this is real gold coin 1899 UK
I have this coin how can I sell this
Hi. Each of the coins is 50% of the value of the coin before it. And each coin was 50% of the weight of the coin before it. Regards Kevin
Err except for the half crown (30 pennies) and the florin (24 pennies). Anyway, there is a correlation between the weight and the value of the coin
Good info that

A sovereign of some denomination ? The golds are the best to get, I am getting quite the stack of old gold Sovereigns, they are all going up nicely in price over the last few years. Just got my hands on a 1874 London, very rare.
i loveeeeeeeeeeeeeee the sixpence its cute
Some can be worth a lot of money.

Anyone know good places in the UK to buy junk silver?
Just look through Charity shops, I got a really good load for £10 I'm still going through the bag 😀
You're pronouncing florin wrong. ;)
It's not 1965 it's 1964..$
Get your own coins fam we want are silvers coins mush
Only jewelry can be sterling silver.
Coins can be sterling silver 92.5 up 1920 and 50 % up 1946
925 ? Many coins are Sterling Sliver. We started to mint our coins in Sterling Silver pre 1158 in the UK so they have been around longer than some nations have existed.
Ever heard of the pound sterling?
