American Silver Eagle melt value & silver content
99.9% silver · 1.00000 troy oz of pure silver per coin.
What an American Silver Eagle is worth
The melt value of an American Silver Eagle is its 1.00000 troy oz of pure silver multiplied by the silver spot price. It contains 99.9% silver. The calculator above uses the current spot price, so the figure it shows is what the silver in the coin is worth right now.
Melt value is a floor, not a price. An American Silver Eagle in collectible grade, or a scarce date, can be worth well above its silver. Dealers also buy under melt and sell over it — the spread is how they make money, so expect to pay a premium buying and receive a discount selling.
What an American Silver Eagle works out to
