Melt value is what the silver is worth, not necessarily what you can sell it for. But it's a good baseline. Worked at full mint weight, so a worn lot comes to slightly less. A silver dime, quarter or half dollar from a proof set struck between 1992 and 2018 is the same 90% silver as its pre-1965 namesake and goes on the same row; from 2019 those coins are 99.9% silver and hold about a tenth more than the row says. Coins struck before 1873, and the Trade dollar that followed them, are not in the table at all: their weights differ by type and every one of them is worth multiples of its silver, so melt is the wrong figure for them rather than an imprecise one. A bar or a round is worth what its maker stamped on it, which is a weaker fact than a mint specification: underweight and plated pieces exist, so weigh anything that did not come from a dealer you trust.
