I can't see keeping US or Canadian Mint proof coins that only have a "Melt Value". About week ago, when silver was much lower, I sold some 1988 Calgary Olympic proof silver dollars, plus three 1988 US Olympic silver dollars. These items were sold thru Craigslist. The commemorative coins that remain are worth keeping because of their low mintage and potential appreciation. They are worth much more than Melt Value. The things I sold didn't "fit" with my current collection / investment goals. The fact that they were composed of silver made selling them much easier.[/QUOTE]
