<p>[QUOTE="Just Carl, post: 935419, member: 4552"]Melting coins for many reasons goes on all the time. Many electricians that do any demo work take as much Copper wiring and cables from the job site. They then take them to smelters along with as many Copper coins, Copper washers, statues as they have accumulated. Many metal recyclers take them and melt them all full well knowing that once Copper is melted, no one could tell it was ever a coin. This goes on all the time.</p><p>Silver coins too are melted down to make Jewlery by Jewlers all the time. A Silver charm for a Silver bracelet can sell for many, many times the price of just Silver. Also, bracelets, ear rings, necklaces, etc are also made from numerous sources of silver including coins. Again, once Silver is melted no one can tell it was ever a coin. </p><p>Melting coins may well be against the law but so is murder, robberies, home invasions, etc and many law inforcement agencies think those area bit more serious that melting coins.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
