Sorry. What I mean is coins being melted down on a commercial scale.
American coin collectors have been around since the 1880s. Well probably longer than that, but I think the 1880s is when coin collecting became...
Well I think I need to refine what I meant. On a small scale, such as making a couple bars or two, I wouldn't mind anyone melting silver or gold...
And again with the more recent one.
What do you mean? When silver goes up, or "booms" people will send it off to a refinery. I'm not really talking about coin collectors, but...
I've had a few hits this year. Last year sucked horribly. That stupid Treasure Hunter Roadshow set up in town, and every reply I got was " I...
When silver hit 49.50 a few months back, it bewilders me how much silver and gold coin got melted. I think we should enact a law that would make...
I don't mean to reject your wisdom, but where on earth did you hear that? The only time wood gives off gas, is when heated. I've stored coins...

What you have is a "history of the us" coin set. There are about 200 bronze coins each depicting some kind of historical event from 1776 to 1976....
Ya. That's another reason why I quit buying slabbed. It's much harder to find old world copper slabbed, and when it is, it usually high grade...
