<p>[QUOTE="NOS, post: 1544994, member: 2098"]Silver coins these days are way over-priced and this over-pricing has adversely affected those who want to collect coins with a silver content not because they are necessarily silver but because they want to collect them as coins. I remember back in 2005 I could buy pre-1965 Roosevelt dimes for 30 cents each, Washington quarters for $1.50 each and WLH/Franklin halves for $3 each. I want these coins for their coin value, not their purported bullion value. I understand 110% where the OP is coming from. These coins should not be priced based off of some "spot value" in the daily newspaper. They should be sold at more of a fair and honest price to those who want to collect them because they are coins. I say leave the buying of silver coins to collectors and the buying of silver in the form of bullion bars, etc. to investors.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
