The terms have become interchangeable but SPOT is the price of .999 silver where MELT is the price you will get for that silver. Melt is lower...
Oh for pity’s sake.
Welcome to CT but I’m not seeing anything that stands out.
I responded in your other post but I’ll add it wasn’t printed in 1492 so spend it.
