<p>[QUOTE="Modern Commens, post: 779485, member: 20737"]Not sure what 'non starter' is but I doubt that this process can be used for US silver bullion coins. Both the proof and uncirculated silver eagles are .999 fine silver. The addition of an alloy would make them less than .999. The US Mint would no longer be able to guarantee that they are .999 fine silver. The fact that the US Treasury guarantees them to be .999 is one of their big selling points. The US commenmorative coins are a differnt story though since they are made up of only 90% silver.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
