Coin and Paper Money Collecting/1941 silver dime

Question
i was going through some change and wanted to know if it is worth anything

Answer
Yes, Cindy, the dime is at a minimum worth the silver content, which today is a little more than 10x face value.  It would be worth more as a collector item only if in really good condition -- uncirculated.  Go to www.ebay.com and do a search for 1941 dime and you'll see many for sale, Jim Lawniczak
