Dimes aren't silver plated. They could be from a proof set but that seems very unlikely... Im gonna guess the 65 is not circulated and still has its luster...worth 10 cents. 1945 is silver 90% it's worth about $1.

Hi Monica, Nicholas is correct about these two dimes. All dimes 1964 and older are 90% silver. Both of the dimes mentioned have more bullion value than collector value and so they are considered "junk silver" in the coin world. This means coins that are bought and sold for silver investment. At any given time, you can check here to see what the silver value is for USA silver coins: https://www.ngccoin.com/price-guide/coin-melt-values.aspx As you can see, these dimes have about $1.30 worth of silver in them, and this is their value. I sell "junk silver" (also known as "constitutional silver") for the melt value shown on that linked page. Thanks for the question and hope this helped! Nick, thanks for helping out. Mike
