<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 1368185, member: 26302&quot;]I am just curious about something. How does a dealer know it is physically melted? Maybe Silvertowne does since they make those little silver medals. I am askign simply because I knew dealers in the past, and when they &quot;melted&quot; coins, they physically shipped them to a dealer who bought junk silver. Now, this dealer, in TX, was also one of the largest dealers in bags of junk silver. When we talk about &quot;melting&quot; silver, is it a euphemism for selling a coin wholesale for a function of its silver value, or are we talking about selling it to a smelting company who does not sell bags of coins, and physically melts them?</p><p><br /></p><p>My suspicion is dealers sell for &quot;melt&quot; never knowing what happens to the coin after that, and many are in fact resold in bags to buyers. Maybe I am wrong.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
