<p>[QUOTE="RedTiger, post: 1381085, member: 19098"]Buy what you like. Proofs are about $25 more (maybe $40 for a business strike $65 for a proof). Coinflation gives you current melt values. Real BU mercuries are going to cost. When sold by the roll, many sellers will sneak in slider AUs, and these coins are not worth full BU price. Difference can be 2x or more in price so be careful. A real BU roll might cost $9 or $10 per coin. For 50 dimes a roll would be $450 to $500. Melt value is about 25x face value with silver at $35 (25 x 5 = $125 melt value). AU coins will be more than melt value, but less than real BUs.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
