You can sell your silver coins and get cash today by visiting the Coin Exchange of West Covina. For many, there’s a hidden trove of value sitting in drawers, closets, and safety deposit boxes: silver coins. These pieces of history, often inherited or part of a collection, could be worth much more than you realize. Sure they’re worth the silver, but what if you have a rare coin and don’t know it? If you’re holding onto silver coins you no longer appreciate or need, now might be the perfect time to sell them. Turn them into something you truly value.

Why Silver Coins Are Special

Silver coins, especially those minted in the United States before 1965, hold a unique allure. Coins like Morgan dollars, Peace dollars, and pre-1965 quarters, dimes, and half dollars contain 90% silver, making them highly sought after by collectors and investors alike. Even coins minted slightly later, such as half dollars from 1965 to 1970, which contain 40% silver, and “war nickels” from 1942 to 1945, with 35% silver, carry significant value due to their precious metal content. More than that, their could be low-mintage coins that are worth more. We call these “key” and “semi-key” dates.

Who Sells Their Silver Coins?

Many of the silver coins we see come from inheritances or collections passed down through generations. Perhaps a family member was an avid collector, or maybe a stash of coins was set aside during a different era. While these coins often carry sentimental value, they can also feel like a burden if you’re not interested in continuing the collection. Selling them can be a practical and rewarding decision, freeing up space and turning a collection you don’t cherish into funds for something you truly appreciate.

Why Sell Your Coins?

If you’re not passionate about collecting, holding onto silver coins might not make sense. Their value lies in their silver content and historical significance, but if they’re just sitting unused, you’re possibly missing an opportunity. Selling your coins allows you to unlock their worth and invest it in something more meaningful to you—whether that’s a new hobby, a memorable experience, or simply some extra cash.
