<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Hiddendragon, post: 1221614, member: 25270&quot;]The OP&#039;s experience sounds a lot like mine too, with a few key differences. The shop I go to is mostly buying and selling silver and gold because that&#039;s what their customers are interested in, and they aren&#039;t really interested in foreign coins and seem to buy everything for 5 cents a piece if it isn&#039;t silver. They throw all the base metal foreign coins into a bin and if you&#039;re lucky and get there at the right time you can really get some deals, and I&#039;ve been lucky like that before, so I can&#039;t complain too much. But I asked them what they did with foreign silver and they said they melted it all down and I thought that was really sad, because unlike when they talk about American silver as melt, I think they actually do melt this. I have to say though I can&#039;t complain with how they treat me. I&#039;ve spent three hours or more there digging through their foreign bin tying up a spot on the counter and at the end of all that I spend probably $30, but they are always helpful and treat me like my business is valuable, even though they have other people coming in making thousand-dollar purchases or sales. I wish they had better selection for foreign but like I said I&#039;ve gotten a lot of deals because they aren&#039;t interested in taking the time to figure out what they have, so overall I can&#039;t complain too much.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
