I like dimes. Those minted in 1964 or earlier are 90% silver and you can pack more in a small volume than any other denomination of coinage.

I agree! Junk silver coins (purchased at a low premium) would be a good thing to have on hand for trade, along with essential comodities.

FYI. There has been some criticism of circulation wear on dimes. I have also loaded up on War Nickels. They are easily identified by the mint mark above Monticello.

Yes, easily recognisable and always worth at least ten cents. I have looked through ny change for any silver, rarely find it anymore.
