Welcome to CCF!

Well, considering copper is only worth about .26 an ounce and thse would be $1.72 + tax and shipping. Pretty lousy buy. But hy if ya like 'em.

And I didn't even factor in the conversion from Troy ounce to AVIP...so they are not even true Troy ounce rounds.

I'd rather have a roll of 12 gauge copper wire.

If you buy 1 - $1.81 plus $5.90 shipping = $7.71
If you buy 10 - $18.10 plus $5.90 shipping = $24.00 ($2.40 each)

Melt = 28 cents

If you buy 10 then it is 8.57x melt

What a rip off!!

Wondering what this has to do with USA commemorative coins?

Thinking this should be posted in the 'bullion forum'.
