<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Collector1966, post: 786828, member: 17919&quot;]These are excellent points, and reasons why I, myself, usually prefer 90% silver coins. Also, the 90% coins are all at least 45 years old and provide a tangible link to US history. And you can also sometimes get BU coins in a junk silver roll as well. With one exception, that&#039;s how I&#039;ve acquired every BU silver Roosevelt in my collection.</p><p><br /></p><p>The legality of melting silver coins is important in that, even if you or I don&#039;t do it, it can increase demand for the coins from the eyes of the dealer, who might not be able to unload 90% silver coins in a reasonable time but who could (theoretically) immediately ship them to a smelter that could turn them into .999 silver bars that are apparently more attractive to the strictly investment side of the silver market.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
