what was the last year the u.s. made silver dimes
1964 was the last year the US minted dimes and quarters from silver for regular circulation. The US Mint makes proof sets every year that have silver coins in them, which you can buy from the US Mint or a local coin dealer. Also, look out for silver halves, which were last made in 1964 as well at 90% silver. Then remember to look for 40% silver halves between 1965 & 1970.
