about 900 dollars .
Pre-1965 U.S. dimes are made of coin silver (900 fine), not sterling silver. In any case your coin is worth about $1 for its silver content.
No, it's not more valuable from a scrap standpoint. Silver is marked according to how much actual silver it contains, up to 1000, which would be pure silver. 900 silver contains 900 units of elemental silver, and 100 units something else, usually copper or nickel. 925 silver contains 925 units of elemental silver and 75 units something else. 925 silver has more silver than 900 silver, thus, for scrap purposes, it is worth more. However, for decorative or antique value, 900 silver can be more valuable than 925 silver. 900 silver, if it is antique or a highly-sought decorative item, could fetch a much higher price than an ordinary or ugly 925 silver item. Take your items to a jewelry store that doesn't buy scrap gold or silver and ask them if your item has any resale value.
It depends of if it's .900 fine or .999 fine. Take to a jewler, most buy silver and gold.

Yes, Real silver with a pretty high purity is 800 silver. Your silver item is made of 80% silver and 20% alloy, as shown by the purity level of 800. It is simple to determine an item's purity using this numbering system. Another illustration is 900 silver, which is 90% silver.
