<p>[QUOTE=&quot;-jeffB, post: 3217147, member: 27832&quot;]This is the same argument used for .999 fine silver vs coin silver vs sterling and other scrap. The big difference is that gold is <i>very easy</i> to refine to high purity, and has been since antiquity. If you&#039;re going to melt it, it doesn&#039;t take a lot more resources to refine it at the same time.</p><p><br /></p><p>That&#039;s why there there&#039;s little or no refining penalty, at least from what I&#039;ve seen. 90% tends to trade at the value of its actual gold content. So does 18K and 14K scrap.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
