Pre-1965 coins are about 73% of one troy ounce for $1 dollar face value of the coins. Pre-1965 silver dollars are about 78% of one troy ounce.
One silver dollar will be 78% of one troy ounce or $23.40 worth of silver in it when the price of silver is $30 per troy ounce. 10 dimes will have about 73% of one troy ounce or be worth $2.19 per coin.
This is a rough estimate, and based on $30 per troy ounce.

Don't overlook several other Kennedy 50 cent pieces.

1964 is silver and worth near $11 ea. (22x).

1965-70 is 40% silver and worth near $4.50 ea. (11x).

Are you saying if I take my 'silver' dimes to a "We Buy Gold and Silver" place I can get $2.19/dime selling them?

The most I've ever seen is 16X face value of any silver coin since the price of silver has settled around $30/oz. So a silver dime is 'worth' $1.60 each if I want to sell it.

If you know of somewhere that will give me $2.19/dime, please tell me where. I'll sell my all of my non-collectible silver dimes for that amount.
