Why would you ever sell unless it's an emergency?

I sell my detected silver all the time. In the early 80s i bought a car with found silver. Nowadays i find more silver jewelry than i do silver coins. I couldn't get out much this summer because it was so dry and the ground was rock hard. Still managed 35 silv dimes, 3 silver quarters. It's how i buy traps, or detecting equipment.

Did you misspell silver on purpose?

Misspelled?

Yes.

silver @ $58.50 and the coin shops only paying $50 they are worried about a big, short!

So how much is a roll of silver dimes worth?

According to Keith's calculator, ~$165.

One can buy silver dimes under melt right now from dealers.

If a guy wants to sell it, unless it's to a private individual, he should expect less than melt.

LOL I was thinking there were 40 dimes in a roll but there is 50.... my bad.

When I first got big into coin collecting. A roll of common date, or unsorted silver dimes, was $20.00. I wish I put every penny I had into silver. I spent way more on foreign coins, only some of which were silver.

When I last bought silver coins, for silver price, I paid $5.40 per dollar face.

I saw some coin books in an online auction last year, sandwiched with other books. I got a book of Indian head pennies, a book of buffalo nickels, a book of early Lincoln cents and a book of standing liberty quarters, plus a lot of other books and some stuff in front of the books for $6.00. I was surprised the coins were in the books still.
