Fuzzy317 Moderator United States 14463 Posts	Posted 08/28/2012 8:49 pm 1/10 silver melt/spot value is about $3. Can you get a clearer and closer picture? Report this Post to the Staff
amida17 Pillar of the Community United States 4897 Posts	Posted 08/28/2012 8:55 pm Fuzzy's calculation of melt value.
