COIN & PRECIOUS METAL TOOLS

Coin and metal value calculator

See how much silver or gold your items contain. Then check the full cost to buy them or what you may keep if you sell on eBay.

← Browse coins

Start here

Tell us what you have. Pick silver or gold. Count your coins, enter the face value, or use a scale to enter their weight. The first example has 10 silver quarters.
Read the metal value. This is what the silver or gold inside is worth at the spot price. Spot price means the market price for one troy ounce of pure metal.
Check a buy or sale. To buy, add the asking price and checkout costs. To sell on eBay, open the eBay section and enter your planned sale price and shipping costs.

The coin count boxes are for 90% silver dimes, quarters, and half dollars from 1964 or earlier. Morgan and Peace dollars have their own box. A rare or high-grade coin may be worth more than its metal.

What do you have?

Try the 10-quarter example, or change the numbers to match your coins. Use the menu for face value, silver dollars, or items you have weighed.

What might you keep from an eBay sale?

First enter the coin or lot above. Then enter the price you think it will sell for. This estimate is for one eBay order on eBay.com in the U.S. If you sell the coins one at a time, run the calculator for each sale.

Pick the category used in your eBay listing. “Bullion” is an eBay category, not a guess about the coin's silver content. eBay may charge a fee on the sale price, the shipping paid by the buyer, and the buyer's sales tax. Sales tax is not money you keep. Your own postage and packing costs come out later.

This covers eBay's listed U.S. final value and per-order fees. Enter any listing, ad, or other fees you expect. Your account, listing choices, and seller rating can change the real charge. Rates checked September 27, 2026. See eBay's regular seller fees or eBay Store fees.

These are estimates, not offers or appraisals. The 90% coin calculation uses about 0.715 fine troy ounce per $1 face value for average circulated dimes, quarters, and half dollars. Morgan and Peace dollars use 0.77344 fine troy ounce each. Do not use these presets for clad or 40% silver coins. Condition, rarity, authenticity, taxes, and selling costs can change a coin's actual value.
