how much silver in 10 dimes

[ORose]

Hello there! That's a great question, and the answer depends on which dimes you're talking about.

If you have U.S. dimes that were minted in 1964 or earlier, they are made of 90% silver. Any dimes made after that year don't contain silver.

For those older silver dimes, each one contains approximately 0.0723 troy ounces of pure silver. To find the total amount of silver in ten of these dimes, you would simply multiply that number by ten.

This means that ten U.S. dimes from 1964 or earlier contain a total of 0.723 troy ounces of silver. Hope this helps you out
