GaryN Valued Member Canada 293 Posts	Posted 03/06/2014 10:19 am I don't like looking at scratched, bent or corroded coins. If they got and get melted so that a nice coin can be made out of it, it's all good. And the lower number of coins out there, the more we can appreciate it when you get one in great shape. Isn't that what collecting's all about? Report this Post to the Staff
steve123 Pillar of the Community Canada 805 Posts	Posted 03/06/2014 3:43 pm I agree. There are such nicer coins of the same years out there. The "junk" ones will really probably never be worth more than melt. I just sell them and list the ASW of the lot. The buyer makes the decision. My LCS also buys "junk" coins based on melt value from collections. The good ones are kept for resale. Selling junk silver on E-Bay will (IMO) always be bid up to the day's value of Kitco. So, best to hang on until the silver price goes up, sell, then buy more coins! Report this Post to the Staff
quimpler Valued Member Canada 64 Posts	Posted 03/06/2014 11:30 pm Is it not illegal to melt any Canadian currency? Or are we all just talking hypothetically here, more along the lines of melt value? Report this Post to the Staff
Jabbss651 Valued Member 72 Posts	Posted 03/07/2014 12:20 am I am against melting coins and actually get a lil mad when people talk about doing it. There is absolutely no point! The history that coin has...is beyond that. Even if thats not the case...just respect the fact it is a coin. Report this Post to the Staff
