They&#039;ll take them to the pawn shop down the street, where the proprietors won&#039;t know any more about the coins than the &quot;new owners&quot; do. They&#039;ll only get 50% of melt, but who cares? They&#039;re into them at 0% of melt.</p><p><br /></p><p>I <i>can</i> imagine a dealer who wouldn&#039;t have anything to do with coins brought in like this. I&#039;m not so sure I can say that I&#039;ve met any, though.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
