<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Cloudsweeper99, post: 301764, member: 3011&quot;]CoinGal, you&#039;ve hit upon something I noticed a long time ago.&nbsp; Coin collectors are not intelligent when it comes to selling silver coins that have little or no numismatic value.&nbsp; Once silver is put into coin form with a recognizable and trusted hallmark identifying it as .90 or .925 or .999 silver, it should all sell for the same price per gram or troy ounce, and should sell at a modest premium to the bullion value since the content and purity are known without assay.&nbsp; But the dealer network continuously bamboozles the collectors into parting with their silver at a discount for a variety of imaginary reasons.&nbsp; One of the highest and best uses for silver is the coin form.&nbsp; To melt it at a discount is about the worst use for it.&nbsp; Perhaps someday, collectors will withhold their coin silver from the market unless/until they are paid an honest price for it.&nbsp; Then, fabricators of silver objects can either go and purchase their raw material from the Comex and pay commissions, storage, shipping, and insurance charges, or pay an honest price for it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
