<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Jwt708, post: 1928580, member: 32619&quot;]Well, see you&#039;ve taken your knowledge of silver composition in the series of coins your interested in - in this case Swiss - and determined the melt value of those coins and shopped/spent accordingly. We&#039;re all saying the same thing here - do your own due diligence/do your homework - before spending the money. In your case, if all the coins were harshly cleaned, you would have still been ok because you shopped and spent based on the melt value.</p><p><br /></p><p>Now we have the novice collector who finds that shiny raw Trade dollar, who buys it for $100 then asks for grade and worth, after the money is spent and sometimes even before it arrives in their possession. Some people seem to have more money then sense...we&#039;ve all seen that guy. My understanding of the OP was to caution such a buyer to avoid that shiny raw example and opt for a graded one, in that case.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
