Coin Melt Calculator

Your coins
Spot prices

Filled in with JinglePig's latest market prices in US dollars per troy ounce. Enter your own price to quote a different basis; it applies only to this calculation.

Percent of melt (optional)

Any figure from 0 to 200. Use 100 or less for a buying price, or more than 100 for a selling price with a markup.

Start over

Choose a coin and enter a quantity to see its melt value.

Market prices come from these spot prices (US dollars):

  • Silver $54.05 per troy oz Current quote · Quote time Oct 23, 10:19 PM EDT
  • Gold $3,996.90 per troy oz Current quote · Quote time Oct 23, 10:19 PM EDT
  • Platinum $1,558.00 per troy oz Current quote · Quote time Oct 23, 10:19 PM EDT
  • Palladium $1,066.00 per troy oz Current quote · Quote time Oct 23, 10:19 PM EDT

Melt value is the metal content at spot price, not a buy or sell price. Collectible coins can be worth much more. For reference only.

How to use the calculator

  1. Choose a coin. Coins with more than one composition, such as Kennedy half dollars, are listed separately by year, so pick the one that matches your coin’s date.
  2. Choose how to count: number of coins, face value (for example $10 in quarters), standard rolls, or total weight in grams.
  3. Add more coins if you have a mix. The total updates as you type.
  4. Spot prices are filled in for you. Enter your own price to quote a different basis. To see a share of the total, enter a percentage of melt: 90 shows 90% of melt value, and 110 adds a 10% markup.
