<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GeorgeM, post: 1370064, member: 28550&quot;]I just got off the phone with a local &quot;We Buy Gold &amp; Silver&quot; place (a jewelry store in Plano). They have a $60 coupon on $500 of sales, and I thought it might be a good time to unload some of my sterling rounds. If they buy at 10% back from spot, that cancels out perfectly.</p><p><br /></p><p>During the call, the proprietor repeatedly referred to sterling as 90% silver. Now, maybe I&#039;m just having an off day, but isn&#039;t sterling a pretty consistent 92.5%? I&#039;m not talking about something from &#039;Bubba&#039;s Mint&#039; or &quot;Italian Sterling&quot; necklaces (which are typically 80% or less due to weak laws in Italy and lax enforcement of those same laws). But, has anyone gotten any firsthand experience smelting Franklin mint or Longines/Wittnauer pieces?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
