90% Pre-1965 U.S. Silver Quarters - $100 Face Value Bag
Pre-1965 U.S. silver quarters are composed of 90% silver and represent a traditional form of U.S. junk silver bullion. A $100 face value bag provides a substantial amount of silver in a familiar, divisible format. These coins are valued for their metal content and recognizability, not for their collectible or numismatic characteristics, making them suitable for investors who want straightforward silver exposure.
Each bag of 90% silver quarters sold by brightspot metals is assembled with bullion investors in mind, with coins that retain clear dates and designs. With nearly two decades of precious-metals experience, we help clients integrate junk silver into a broader bullion-only strategy that may also include modern silver coins and bars. All $100 face value bags of 90% silver quarters are eligible for our buyback program, providing flexibility as your strategy evolves.
In keeping with industry custom, orders placed for multiple $100 Face Value bags will be automatically consolidated into larger bags, such as $500 Face Value bags or up to $1,000 Face Value bags.
"Face value" refers to the nominal value of the coins (e.g., 4 Quarters equals $1 Face Value). The industry standard is that there are 71.5 oz of pure silver in every $100 Face Value bag.
$100 face value bag (contains 400 quarters) = 71.5 oz (pure silver weight if melted down)
$500 face value bag (contains 2,000 quarters) = 357.5 oz (pure silver weight if melted down)
$1,000 face value bag (contains 4,000 quarters) = 715 oz (pure silver weight if melted down)
One can always determine how much they are paying for the silver in the coins, divide the price of the bag by the number of ounces it contains, or ask one of our precious metals specialists for the price per ounce of silver.:
