I saved these from being melted.

A man I work with brought 12 rolls of silver dollars for me to look through to see if he had anything worth a premium to melt.I picked out these 15 and made him what we both considered a fair offer and he sold them to me.I would hate to see any of these melted even though none are worth sending in for grading.I think a couple might be 64's and some have some nice rim toning.He did have an 1892-S,but it was in rough condition.Several coins in his rolls were harshly cleaned or even polished,some had graffiti and some had holes.

Takes a little effort but the premium far outweighs the cost to sell.

Link and melt today would be $336 if I calculated correctly.

Would indeed be a shame to melt them..
S mints on some of those Peace dollars would have been a big bonus!

<< <i>It seems really silly to melt such coins and make them into rounds and bars. I'd bet that most of the refiners who receive bulk silver do separate out coins with numismatic value and resell them. >>
While some shop owners and/or Ebay sellers might cherry-pick such coins, by the time they get to the actual refiners they are worth NOTHING but their silver content.
