    I don't think I'm allowed to post a link. Just google Shibe Mint. I think he's going to take orders for a second batch of silver 100 Doges pretty soon. :)

    May I ask us there much of a value deference between 95% copper like pennies before 1982 and .999? Just wondering :)

    Here's my copper bullion:

    3.5 lbs. Picked them up for $5 at a yard sale last summer. (Less than melt value!) ;)

    I thought I did "OK" until I saw how much they sell for in a hardware store. They're $12-15 each!

    Anyone know what the purity on these is? They aren't stamped. :confused:

    .999 copper bullion is not good as an investment, a 1 lb bar will cost around $10 an copper is only like 3 dollars an change per lb at scrapyards, copper cents however are worth about 2.5 times face value for copper content, but it is illegal at this time to melt them..

    a link to how these might be made.. link: http://www.ehow.com/info_12146972_copper-pipe-made.html
    they might have traces of nickel and tin but most are 99.9 pure copper.

    Blaubart. here's a picture of a copper tube coffee table I saw on Ebay that I kept and thought you would enjoy seeing it. I forget how much it was and how long it took the guy to make it. it's not mine. He also made 2 smaller but higher end tables and both came with a glass top. total cool copper:

    I wonder how strong it is. It seems the top is one single line of copper pipe. I suspect they could have made it a bit stronger by adding some T's to unify it.
