[QUOTE="ToughCOINS, post: 2960194, member: 20480"]This claim seems pretty baseless to me. The rationale behind owning 90% coinage over bar silver is that it facilitates specie exchange in very small, easily identifiable units.

Probably only a large dealer buying in bulk, and buying back of silver as a fee for handling the coins. It is not likely that redemption by any other means will have the other party measuring the silver content on a scale.
