The Coinage Act of 1792 established the first United States Mint and authorized the issuance of legal tender coinage. However, it wasn’t until the following year that the Mint started producing copper coinage, two years before they produced the first silver coins and three years before they struck the first gold coins. Today, the United States Mint produces all of the Nation’s coinage at four different Branch Mints: Philadelphia, Denver, San Francisco and West Point. At Black Mountain Coins we’re privileged to handle many different types of United States coins, from Colonial through Modern Commemorative issues.
Monster Bag of 5,000 Wheat Pennies – Free Domestic Shipping – 1909 /1958 – Unsearched – With the price of copper skyrocketing, unsearched bags of Wheat Pennies have become extremely popular. We have literally bought hundreds of thousands of these wheat pennies and do not have the time to go through them, so we count them and bag them just as they are when they come into the shop. Because we get our wheat pennies and other coins from multiple sources, there is no telling what you will find in one of these bags. Each bag is guaranteed to be unsearched and to give you many hours of numismatic pleasure!

Junk silver dimes do offer several advantages. First, they provide small increments of barter. Secondly, like silver rounds, this form of silver coinage generally carries a low premium over the spot market price of silver — unless during situations of physical supply shortages. (In other words, the market value of “junk silver” is very close to the actual melt value of the junk coins.) Thirdly, they are legal U.S. tender (albeit only for the face value). Finally, junk silver bags are recognized around the world as a trading medium and are therefore very liquid.
For every $1.40 in face value of a combination of dimes, quarters, and half dollars pre-1965 there is the equivalent of 1 troy ounce of silver. Another way to look at this is for every $1.00 in face value there is .715 troy ounces. For example, you have $10.00 face value of silver quarters, then that is equal to 7.15 troy ounces (10.00 x .715 = 7.15). In addition, if you take $1.40 and multiply it by .715 you get the desired $1.00 amount.
