<p>[QUOTE="Just Carl, post: 165551, member: 4552"]The melting point is to high for normal household type melting. If you have a blast furnace, that may work. However, unless you have a really large quantity, you'ld be better off just taking to a bank. Many metal recyclers will not even bother with a few pounds of copper coins and don't forget you have to find one, take them there and with the price of gas, you'll probably loose. You may want to first get a book on coins and look for things like 60D/D, 69S Double, 70S small date, 71S double, 72 double, offsets, blanks, missing letters or numbers and so many more. <span style="color: red">Inappropriate comments deleted</span>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
