<p>[QUOTE="The Eidolon, post: 5452958, member: 102103"]True, but the wear is generally a couple percent or less for all but the most severely worn coins. (Well, modern coins. Older coins were actively clipped). I might be willing to pay a 1-2% over weight premium for older types, with a chance of a few of them having a significant numismatic premium. Particularly if silver prices ever fall, coins that are now available at the same melt price may diverge in value at a lower silver price. If they are the same price now, I'd rather have the older type with a higher numismatic "floor" price.</p><p><br /></p><p>And just to have some photos, two of my clipped coins below.</p><p>Prague Grossi, Wencezlaus II (R, clipped) and Karl IV (L, normal)</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1237408[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1237409[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>2 reales, Seville (R, clipped) and Chile (L, normal)</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1237410[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1237411[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
