<p>[QUOTE=&quot;cpm9ball, post: 930085, member: 24633&quot;]It&#039;s my fault for not being more explicit in my post. When I said it was &quot;centsless&quot; to hoard pennies for their copper value, I was referring to the return you would realize when selling them to a reclamation center. The 20% return I quoted was the result of calling about 100 such centers in the state of Florida, asking them what they would pay and averaging those quotes.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I don&#039;t know how much it would cost to refine silver, but I seem to recall articles that ran in Coin World and Numismatic News a couple of years ago about refineries in Canada that were melting old coinage to extract silver and nickel to sell to the RCM.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I save the pre-82&#039;s as well, and if I ever decide to sell, it surely will not be to a reclamation center.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Chris[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
