Calculate the melt value of junk silver coins (constitutional silver) at the current silver spot price: US 90% pre-1965 dimes/quarters/halves/dollars, US 40% Kennedy halves (1965–1970), US 35% war nickels (1942–1945), Canadian 80% (1920–1966/67) and Canadian 50% (1967–68) coins. Provide the coin type plus either a quantity of coins or a total face value (e.g. face_value 2.50 for a roll of dimes). Returns total actual silver weight (ASW) in troy oz and grams, and melt value in USD and CAD.

}Calculate the melt value (intrinsic bullion value) of silver or gold from weight and purity — e.g. sterling silver flatware, .999 rounds, scrap gold. Returns melt value in both USD and CAD plus the fine metal weight. Purity is a fraction: 0.925 = sterling, 0.999 = fine silver, 0.9 = US coin silver. Weight units: g (grams), ozt (troy ounces), oz (avoirdupois ounces — postal-scale ounces).
| Argument | Type | Description |

| unit* | string | Weight unit: g = grams, ozt = troy ounce, oz = avoirdupois ounce |
| metal* | string | Which metal |
| purity* | number | Fineness as a fraction, e.g. 0.925 for sterling silver |
| weight* | number | Gross weight of the item(s) |
