[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 3089008, member: 112"]Galen, even common date Saints slabbed and graded as high as MS63 and sometimes even 64 routinely sell for about 10% over melt. And if they are not slabbed 10% under melt is not uncommon - even though they are MS coins. The point I am trying to get across is that junk silver and junk gold are just that - junk. So all they are ever going to sell for is close to melt. The same thing is true of common world coins in both silver and gold, even if they are 100-150 years old. They are still considered to be just bullion - or junk in other words.[/QUOTE]
