<p>[QUOTE=&quot;CaptHenway, post: 5346818, member: 13813&quot;]When I was working at a coin shop I used to pull &quot;slick&quot; silver coins from the incoming junk silver and scrap them rather then just throw them back into the junk silver we were selling retail. Did not want to cheat our customers.</p><p><br /></p><p>Just out of curiosity as to how much silver they had lost, a few times when I was making up refinery lots I weighed batches of slicks (which eliminates the possibility that they were all at the low end of the tolerance weights when new) and found that the lots were fairly consistently 7% light. This applied to both dollars and fractional silver.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
