[QUOTE="WingedLiberty, post: 1030560, member: 26030"]i just roughed out this calculation ... (hope i did the math right!) Silver Melt Value: .0723 oz silver in 1 dime .9042 oz silver in 5 quarters .3617 oz silver in 1 half dollar --------- 1.3382 oz silver total in the set with silver at $26.76 oz. That's a total of $35.81 for the melt value of the silver coins in the set And let's not forget ... you get an additional 7 non-silver coins 5 one dollar coins 1 nickel 1 penny so thats $5.06 in face value of additional coins So that totals to $35.81 silver melt + $5.06 face of non-silver = $40.87 in real value The cost of 1 set is $56.95 cost per set $4.95 shipping ----------------- $61.90 cost of 1 set So basically you are paying $21 over the silver melt and face of the coins to hope for an appreciation due to a lower mintage. That's not too bad [ATTACH]100887.vB[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
