<p>[QUOTE="dannic113, post: 1342821, member: 35203"]Actually $250 ($12.50 a coin) isn't too bad it's just short of dealer bid minus a dollar. I just sold 6 walkers to a dealer for the silver and got $80. 80 divided by 6 is $13.33 per coin. So you could even at what a dealer would pay make almost a dollar a coin. Be aware that if you are holding on to them for years or decades silver MAY once again be $10-13 dollars an ounce. That's the rub about buying silver, gold and platinum they are investment vehicles too. They are tied to the markets and market swings. So you could be holding the bag so to speak and won't get your money back when you do sell them. That's why BU's are better long term because they will hold their collector value better. Plus with all the melting going on Bu's may go way up because there will be fewer circulated coins and even some UNC's (some dealers will melt Bu's) to buy.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
