....will you sell your Coin Roll Hunted Silver Collection? If not, what would silver have to go up to for you to consider it? I'm curious to find out what other CRH's would do. I would be tempted!  Click Edited by Mr Click

IF silver were 100 dollars an ounce, the break down would be (according to (124) Not Allowed - Auto-Removed website): $5.63 for one 35% silver nickel $7.23 for one 90% silver dime $18.08 for one 90% silver quarter $36.17 for one 90% silver half dollar $14.79 for one 40% silver half dollar $77.35 for one Morgan dollar |

My finds are a little too precious  Pocket change finds from when you could find them easily are a little different, I have rolls upon rolls of dimes and quarters that I would let go if I need the cash and it was nice and high. heck on someone them I might let them go at $60-$80 I found a 1955 dime, semi-key, maybe key date, I never know where the cut off is between semi and key. But that one went right into my Whitman's and now I only need a 1949-S to fill it. To sell a find, especially a key find, it would have to be very expensive. |

WoW! That is one expensive nickle Yoshi!!  I would definitely keep the good stuff, and sell the common silver I've found. |

Sell, no. Trade, of course. I have traded (duplicate) roll-found silver before (with a dealer) to add the coins that I needed.

If it's just 'junk' and not in an album or has collector value, then yes I would. I'd sell all my silver I've been slowly buying too.

At $100 we are in trouble, no way am I trading down for paper.
Hard assets like real estate on the other hand...
When I listen to LED ZEPPELIN...so do my neighbors...
Roll hunting since '77
Dirt fishing since '72

I sell my Kenndey rolls finds as fast as I get them so as not to be holding the bag at the end of the week.
I still hold my Franklins and Walkers but they are negotiable.
If silver hits $100 I am getting out all of my Danscos and cashing in while I can.
Copper should also be up proportionally at the same time so I ca finally get paid on my 300lbs of cents I have stashed.

I probably lean towards fistfull's line of thinking. If silver were to run to $100/oz in a relatively short amount of time, I'd consider buying hard assets. It would depend on how much the metal run affected the value of other hard assets.
I think its important to note that most people discount the metal value of copper in 40% halves. Right now, its considered a negative because of the 'refining' costs to separate the metals. I would encourage my CRHing friends to visit a calculating website and consider the possibilities if copper were to go on a similar run. It may change your perception on the 40% halves, if you're in it for the long haul.

I plan on trading my Kennedy halves once the silver to gold ratio comes down. Right now its about 65 oz of silver per oz of gold. The norm the last 30-40 years has been 50 to 1 so once the ratio go's down to 30 or 40 to 1 I'll most likely trade my silver halves for gold. |

Sustained $100+/oz. silver would make 40% JFK's a lot more popular than they are now. $14.79 melt value @ $100/oz. would be an easier price entry point than $36.17 for each 90% Half.
The same price entry level logic would also apply to 90% Silver Dimes.

40% coins are yucky. 90% and over only please. I'd be trading up for some gold or anything in the platinum family. Some 1964 Kennedys would see the melting pot, but only the worn out ones.

If silver were $100/oz, you probably wouldn't be trading it in for cash.....you'd be bartering it for food and water! LOL! But then again, who ever thought 50 years ago that gold would be as high as it is? Heck in 1951 it was only $34/oz and didn't break $100/oz until 1974!
