What is the silver content of coin silver?
Until the end of WW1, many countries minted silver coins with a high silver content, usually 90% or more. In 1919/20, there was a sharp increase in the price of silver and many countries reduced the silver content of some or all of their coins to around 50%. At the end of WW2 when many countries were repaying war loans or, had had their economies destroyed by the war, the silver content was reduced further, or eliminated altogether. By the second half of the 20th century, most "silver" coins were made from a copper/nickel alloy. These days, only non-circulating investment coins or high value coins are made from silver.
Is the silver value of any Australian coin worth more than the nominal value?
Silver Australian coins were first issued in 1910 and were made from sterling silver which has a 92.5% silver content. This changed from 1946 onwards and the silver content was reduced to 50%. No Australian general circulation coin has had any silver content since 1966, except for the round 1966 50 cent coin. The silver content of the older predecimal coins possibly values the coins at more than face value, however, if the coins are in good condition, the collector value may be higher.
