[QUOTE="Bedford, post: 1014268, member: 4917"]In my opinion,& experiance - 95% don't have the time, don't really care & know that it is not worth their while.(Maybe I just reside in a different part of the dealer world if so) The small % that is left is the guy who gets not enough business coming in & has nothing better to do . At these prices it doesn't matter to most what the condition of- any Franklin (excluding AU/UNC 1948's 1949's & 1955's),any Kennedy, any Walkers under XF (excluding keys), Washington quarters under AU (sometimes UNC)post 1955,Standing Quarters under VF, any Roosevelt & any Mercury under AU (except 1921's & 1916-D's) & War Nickles under AU. They are valued for what they are made from. And these coins for the most part are NOT actually being melted - they just trade for their melt price. They are bagged & traded as a commodity. If ya'll dont believe me I'd be ecstatic to sell any of these coins at melt to anyone.[/QUOTE]
