90% Silver Dimes are a classic and affordable way to invest in physical silver while holding a tangible piece of American history. Each $1 Face Value lot contains 10 U.S. dimes minted before 1965, composed of 90% silver and 10% copper. These circulated coins have withstood the test of time, offering collectors and investors alike a connection to America’s past and a convenient means of stacking fractional silver.

Each lot of 90% Silver Dimes reflects a different era of U.S. coinage. The Mercury Dime, designed by Adolph A. Weinman, is celebrated for its depiction of Liberty wearing a winged cap — a symbol of freedom of thought. The Roosevelt Dime, which replaced it in 1946, honors President Franklin D. Roosevelt and features a torch, olive branch, and oak branch symbolizing liberty, peace, and strength.
These coins circulated widely in everyday commerce until silver was removed from U.S. coinage in 1965. Despite their age and wear, 90% silver coins remain a trusted choice among investors seeking smaller, divisible silver units that are easily recognizable and highly liquid.
Whether you’re a history enthusiast, a silver investor, or a collector of classic American coinage, these 90% Silver Dimes offer a timeless blend of heritage, utility, and intrinsic value. Each set provides not only silver content but also a tangible link to a bygone era of U.S. minting excellence.
