<p>[QUOTE="wgpjr, post: 1624503, member: 22482"]I'd bid $50 below melt on that roll and see where it goes. If the auctioneer knows the price of silver, he/she won't allow it. I know the local auctioneer here doesn't let his silver auctions go below melt unless he doesn't know what the coin is (I've gotten some modern comm. under melt thanks to this). Also, I do know your pain about people over bidding on items. I went to an auction in which people were bidding several dollars a piece for common half dollars! SABs were even getting premium bids! It was so bad, that it was funny but at the same time, quite frustrating. I did however get 30 rolls of wheat cents for $36. I don't think the people who were left at the auction knew what they were, but I looked closely at the wrapped rolls and noticed some light writing on them. While I didn't find any key dates, I was able to resell them all at $4 a roll.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
