<p>[QUOTE=&quot;National dealer, post: 7462, member: 487&quot;]Here is a hint. </p><p><br /></p><p>When you visit your dealer, be sure to look through the junk silver. We (dealers) all have a coffee can or some other holder used for junk silver. These are the coins that get sold at about melt prices. Most on a really good day would grade good.</p><p><br /></p><p>Today, while looking through a few recently bought worn mercs, out pops a 16D grading about good 3. </p><p><br /></p><p>This is a coin that was bought at 43 cents.</p><p><br /></p><p>Most of us (dealers) do not bother to look at dates and mint marks of junk silver. We drop them in our container and either sell them in handfuls to our customers, or put them in a 1000 dollar bag and wholesaled to other dealers. This little key has passed through countless hands until finally being spotted. If the phone would have rang, this coin would have been in the hopper, or worse yet, on the way to the refiner.</p><p><br /></p><p>Just goes to show you, if you take the time to look, you never know what little treasure will be awaiting you.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
