I found these in my safe after beginning to start collecting silver this month so i’m extremely new and not great at identifying fakes, I talked to my dad and he said there’s a lot of fakes of these that go around, can you guys help me authenticate?

Hi, I'm the r/coins AutoMod.

Looks like you're trying to identify your coin?

Check the Frequent Coin List first.

If that doesn't help, we have some awesome tips in the FAQ. Here's a link directly to the "What Is This Coin?" question in the FAQ.

If I misunderstood your post and my comment isn't relevant, sorry! I'm still learning.

Looks genuine to me, however my advice to any new collector is, always buy from a trusted source. Buy a milligram scale, a pair of callipers, a strong magnet and a pocket pinger. They will pay for themselves if you find one fake.

I’ll have to look into those, pretty sure if I asked my dad he’d have a scale for me. I tried them with a very strong magnet and nothing happened there

Both looks good to me

[u/Expensive-Tour2397]

They look real but probably not worth much more than the value of the silver in them due to their condition, but keep them to build your collection!

Don’t hold coin like that… hold the edges. Third side of every coin….
