Silver is money

NEW! An opportunity for dealers to post your prices on your own website, so they can be IFRAME’d on this site for easy reference. CLICK HERE

This website can help you estimate the value of silver pieces and may be of use to people using silver as a medium of exchange.

If using silver, be very specific. Even ask to see the silver pieces to be sure there is no misunderstanding. You may offer to shovel a driveway for “two silver dollars” and have an idiot try to pay you with non-silver Eisenhower dollars. Many people by force of habit use the word “silver” to describe coins containing no silver, or you may expect 90% silver half dollars (1964 and earlier) only to have the customer tender 40% silver coins (1965 through 1970).

Use this website at your own risk, as there is no warranty.
