It's a tricky one with US constitutional in Europe as it's not so available, so prices tend to be higher then UK silver coins. 

You will expect to pay much higher prices for the older coins like Peace and Morgan Dollars, Seated/Standin/Walking Liberties, Barbers and Mercury dimes.

The lower priced coins tend to be those minted closest to 1964, so Roosevelt Dimes, Franklin quarters and Kennedy halfs (for the 90%)

For UK coins I'd expect to pay a 2-10% premium - depending on condition and silver content. For US 90%, not including the older stuff, I'd expect to pay up to 25-35% premium, again depending on condition/ type. The 40% US can be found cheaper.

You might be able to find 'slicks' (really worn down coins where you can't read the date) for cheap, but that's not too easy to find.

Im the same, my constitutional coin tin has been 100% sourced on eBay.  My average purchase is usually $1 face value or less, and thus my little $50 stack has come in rather a lot of envelopes.

Its almost all Roosevelt dimes or 1864 kennedy halves, which I really like.  Someone on the forum once got a kilo bag of kennedy halves in a Group Buy, and if they ever sell, I'll buy the whole lot 😂  theyve never had constitutional silver in stock since then 🙈

1964 kennedys are my favourite coin,just probably cause it's the year I was born. I might be selling some in the next week or two,but I'm afraid by time you see the listing,they'll be gone. 🤣🤣
