<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Mr. Flute, post: 2320768, member: 33154&quot;]I agree that knowing the fineness of many different series and their gradual debasements is a much more definitive way, but the dealer I picked from had .50, .625, .835, .925 etc fineness coins of varying sizes/denoms loose in a bin.</p><p><br /></p><p>From hearing what everyone is saying here, I presume he was giving a bulk price in relation to the absolute weight of the coins I chose and he weighed them in front of me.&nbsp; Or he knew the various finenesses and weights of each coin by sight and would calculate the &#039;value&#039; in his head.</p><p><br /></p><p>Basically, I suppose I was over-thinking the method he used to determine the price and simply averaged the value when pricing the bulk loose coins.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
