[QUOTE="stldanceartist, post: 8172426, member: 13307"]$18/ea. seems high (each coin has .6 oz of silver by ASW, with silver at $23.56/oz that's $14.14 melt value per coin) but not absurdly so. When I get some I don't want to keep, I usually sell them at 10% over spot (my normal "junk" world silver rate) unless they're 1958 and older, then they usually bring at least $20/each. They're pretty common those years, too, so no real "scarcity" premium unless they were in something like an original bank roll (not sure if those exist in Canada, though, so don't quote me on that.) Most coin shops I frequent are more than happy to sell them at spot, since they tend to pile up due to the lower than 90% silver content.[/QUOTE]
