yep to make it simple for the OP figure 25x face value, e.g. a 90% silver dime is worth 25 x $0.10 = $2.50 |

At the time of the trade, use the coinflation silver coin value tool to figure the current value of the silver coins. Do not agree to any price other than current silver value at the time of sale. |

If the person that wants to trade was to take the coins to a shop to sell them he would find them discounted. A shop usually buys at discounts that can range from 5% to 15% below spot. And sells the other way around.
Keep this in mind if you do the trade. Why trade at 100% of spot value. He can't sell it for that at a dealer and niether can you. Just a thought. GD |

Here's a calculator on that site. It lists all the 90% US silver coins. It'll help with the math. It calculates value based on silver content.
http://www.coinflation.com/coins/silver_coin_calculator.html I wouldn't bother trading for 40% silver coins, unless it's near face value. There's a smaller market for those. |

One thing I need to add... he says silver sells above spot value. Is this correct?

Or, http://www.silvercoinstoday.com/silver-calculators/us-silver-coin-calculator/ You have to know whether the silver in question is 90% content or not. Pre '65 are 90%. This is for melt weight only. |

40% is perfectly good, just not worth as much as 90%. I am a coin dealer and buy and sell large quantities of 40% every week.

I'd give him 90% spot value excepting some rarity that has outstanding numismatic value. |

Unless you want a large quantity of silver coins, why would you even consider this?
It is just as though he were offering you Hershey bars or cases of paper towels. I would only accept the silver if the price was adjusted for the silver content and at least 10% below spot price. |

DO NOT TRADE FOR ANYTHING AFTER ''65. Thanks for that plus the info about spot value, this is helping a LOT. A certain percentage of the package is '65 - '69 coinage |

That and the fact that the dollar is dying and that silver coins will be a valuable medium for exchange. |
