    Howdy, all...Yep, it's been awhile.
    This (an' 2 others of the larger coin-size; more about them in another post) was a GHQ-era bring-back by my uncle in '52. All of the coins in these bracelets appear to have been uncirculated prior to being incorporated into jewelry. As a given, I'll accept that whatever numismatic value they may have has been seriously reduced by such craft...but my question is: are they only worthy of scraping (if I can't get more than that as bracelets)? This one weighs 17.6 grams; the other 2, of the larger size, total 152.1 grams the pair. I'm painfully aware the market is momentarily soft for silver, but I'm a patient man.
    Thanks for all your comments an' suggestions, an' for lookin'!
