They give you whatever its worth in silver.</p><p>Now, do they just do that because its like backed by the price of silver...they don't actually take these coins and MELT them do they???? <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie9" alt=":eek:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p> </p><p>Like for example, I have a baggie of dimes, that aren't that old...yet, but they are the silver ones.
