<p>[QUOTE=&quot;wcoins, post: 1850609, member: 32035&quot;]You buy the silver, use your minting facility, pay people to produce and market the coins for 20 dollars. Why not go to the national bank and exchange them directly for 20 and save all that trouble?</p><p><br /></p><p>Let me try answer this myself. I think because they won&#039;t accept them, and no one is going to try spend these at the store, so it&#039;s like minting a silver coin and sell for a huge premium?</p><p><br /></p><p>I get it, that&#039;s the point. To me it&#039;s no different than printing a 20 dollar note and selling it for 20, just that in the coin case, they spend 5 dollars worth of silver instead of few cents worth of paper. But hey, the note is going into circulation, the coin isn&#039;t. Oh, and with the coin not circulating, they make a profit, when with the note, they don&#039;t.</p><p><br /></p><p>Seen one lot of these 10 x 20 dollar coins selling for 115 dollars on ebay.&nbsp; That&#039;s like half face value.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
