<p>[QUOTE="SilverSurfer, post: 920462, member: 21603"]I don't know if I'm following you on that. If silver were $50 an ounce, why not just sell the MS69 coin for the new price. Why does it have to be melted? I can understand melting grandma's tea set, but why would bullion, that tracks the price of silver, be melted down more when the price goes up? Or how about rare coins for that matter.....wouldn't the price of silver going up help the price of those rare silver coins? Why melt them down? What is the mechanism for melting silver bullion or coins when the price goes up?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
