<p>[QUOTE="BooksB4Coins, post: 2667418, member: 36230"]With all due respect, Pat; you need to stop making assumptions and spend some time familiarizing yourself with the reality of this little sham. This isn't a difficult concept to understand. Just because people sell them for premiums and prey upon those who do not understand the realities of scrap copper, this doesn't mean (as already said) that even if the ban was lifted, refiners are going to pay anywhere close to the content value. Again, while a "copper" cent may technically contain metals worth the listed amount, the fact they are in alloy form renders it meaningless. The quoted value is for GRADE A copper yet is being applied an alloy. Please, do a little homework, if not for your own benefit, for those who may be reading this. What I stated was not "false", sir, but is fact. You may not being doing so intentionally, but the claims you're making are both misleading and potentially dangerous, particularly to those looking to make an easy buck.</p><p><br /></p><p>Perhaps [USER=24633]@cpm9ball[/USER] would like to add a little more to the discussion?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
