<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Wheezer, post: 74486, member: 4273&quot;]Thanks folks; I appreciate the time and information.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m told that while there is more Ag in two war nickels than there is in one pre &#039;65 dime (same face value &amp; 715 oz Ag/$1K 90% vs. 1125 oz Ag in $1k face 35%), the nickels should probably be purchased at a lower premium because (1) there is comparatively much more bulk and weight in the 20K nickels than in the 10K dimes, and (2) The nickels have a higher smelting/refining cost because of the more complex alloy containing 9% manganese.</p><p><br /></p><p>But wow:&nbsp; 1125 oz. - 715 oz. = 410 oz. x $7.00 spot =&nbsp; $2870 more dollars for the $1K face. Seems to me a guy might want to do the total cost math and maybe consider tolerating the bulkier storage, heavier xport, and higher payment of smelting costs for this kind of money difference. Thanks again![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
