Went to one of those estate sales today. You know the kind, everything was priced high, and anything that had ANY resale value looked like a Bar B Qued rib after Larry, my dog, got finished with it. There was NO meat at all. As we were walking out, I glance in the jewlery box and see a zip lock bag FILLED with silver quarters. Next to it, a dime bag. They had them marked at Sterling melt... $580. I offer them $525, and they accept... then tax! So I say, I'll do $550 with tax. They accept. I don't really know what I've got, but my rough calculation in my head tells me I did ok. $43.85 Face. $13.056x face today for simple melt... $572. Nice bag of silver to add to my stack... plus they took my credit card. 2% cash back.

Anytime you can buy silver coin below melt you’re doing OK

Exactly my thought. I'll only add to my stack below silver melt. I just threw in a bag of silver that had bouncing around my trunk. About $10 face of 40% (paid $2, Melt was $2.25 I think). Another $10 of 90% (mostly walkers). Paid $5 per.

I love cheap silver.
