<p>[QUOTE=&quot;masterswimmer, post: 6407340, member: 102022&quot;]Totally understand about the recovery cost exceeding the silver value, today. Therefore, not melting them down today (if it were legal) would be advisable.</p><p><br /></p><p>My question is this. Just like it is not profitable for certain oil drilling companies to continue drilling when oil dips below, say $35/bbl, wouldn&#039;t melting down war nickels, if spot silver were to ever climb to $XX.xx/oz make it a profitable venture? I&#039;m not sure what the X variable is. For discussion sake lets use $75/oz.</p><p><br /></p><p>I can&#039;t accept a blanket statement that says it is not profitable to melt 35% silver war nickels, ever. There has to be a price when it becomes a shrewd deal. Maybe that price is $500/oz. I just don&#039;t know.</p><p><br /></p><p>What say you smelters?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
