<p>[QUOTE="V. Kurt Bellman, post: 2311833, member: 71723"]I was at an Allentown, PA bid board auction (write down your bids on a paper attached to a showcase) where I watched a $2-1/2 Indian go for under melt early in 2015. Yes, it's not under Jan. 3, 2016 melt, but it was then. There were scads of rarer dates nearby and this poor lonely two-and-a-half got ignored. I used to snag lots of silver pieces either under or just around melt regularly there. In rural Pennsylvania, unlike obviously other areas, locals drop out once melt has been significantly passed at auction. There's too much else still coming later. No shortage of silver OR gold at about melt. I could buy silver steadily at UNDER melt at my local coin club auction, if I cared about bullion, which I don't, because I'm certain melt will be even lower in six months.</p><p><br /></p><p>Side note: Gold Indians just MIGHT be the toughest coins to grade that there are, especially so from a picture.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
