<p>[QUOTE="cpm9ball, post: 2917901, member: 24633"]That internet website that quotes the value at 3c is full of it. That value would be based on the price of <b>Grade A copper</b>. Your coin is an alloy and requires more extensive smelting than pure copper. It's really only worth about 25% of the price quoted for Grade A copper. Therefore, it's value in terms of copper content is less than 8/10ths of a cent. I don't recommend that you save any copper cents based solely on the melt value of copper.</p><p><br /></p><p>Chris[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
