yavaris Valued Member United States 169 Posts	Posted 04/15/2007 2:52 pm Hm... I think the ASW on this coin is 0.4546 or $6.36 at current silver prices. Echizento, do you know what the price of silver was at the time of the publishing of your price guide? It would be interested to know what kind of "quality premium" there is on the base silver price.

echizento Moderator United States 23731 Posts	Posted 04/15/2007 3:19 pm It's the 2007 catalog, so it came out mid 2006. It shows the coin at 0.5000 silver and .4546 oz. As of Friday silver was $14.01 oz. If my math is collect at 50% silver and under 1/2 oz. melt value is @$3.45.

yavaris Valued Member United States 169 Posts	Posted 04/15/2007 4:03 pm oh, is the 0.4546 oz the weight of the coin, or the weight of the silver in the coin? Haha... Report this Post to the Staff
echizento Moderator United States 23731 Posts	Posted 04/15/2007 5:57 pm Sorry Yavaris, I stand corrected you are correct the actual silver contant weight is 0.4546. So you are correct on your value. Brain not working right today. Ron Report this Post to the Staff
