Just wondering, if there are any indexes of coins survived from melting from original mintage? I mean, in general terms? Saying, a Mercury dime with mintage 200 mln, how many of them can exist now? in 50 years? Any official info about melting old silver coins to mint new ones?   11-20-2004, 04:04 PM   #2 (permalink) pcrdnadave Senior Member   Join Date: Nov 2004 Posts: 332 There are some nice articles about this topic in this weeks "Coin World" magazine.   Bookmarks Digg del.icio.us StumbleUpon Google Would you like to support CoinTalk?
