<p>[QUOTE=&quot;65GT350, post: 199990, member: 7635&quot;]All pre-64 is tied to the silver price. As silver rises it seems that only the semi key and key coins get saved from the smelter. And even then I have read stories of BU rolls of early Washington quarters being sent to the smelter.</p><p><br /></p><p>I tend to use an increase in silver price to go through the dealers bargain bin. You can sometimes pickup semi-keys for close to spot. For Example when silver was at 12.50 a 1953 Franklin in VF was 5.75&nbsp; ( 27% premium over spot) Now at 14.71 silver that same 53 Franklin is selling at an 8% premium over spot. Sometimes you can even pickup coins for below spot from these bins since they don&#039;t change the price on them.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
