<p>[QUOTE=&quot;messydesk, post: 2090596, member: 1765&quot;]I guess the only reason I can think of is that Congress doesn&#039;t pass Canadian laws, and the Canadian Parliament doesn&#039;t pass US laws.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Other than that, my impression of assignment of face value to bullion is that they&#039;re arbitrary values that are far below melt.&nbsp; With silver having been below $5/oz in parts of the &#039;90s, a face value of $5 would have become problematic.&nbsp; Of course, Canada was producing their $5 face 1 oz. silver coins at the time, but I&#039;ll fall back on my first explanation here.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
