Does anyone know a good place to buy quantities of "unsearched" silver coins? I'm just getting into this and I just ordered 80 silver coins for $172, and I thought someone might know somewhere to buy pounds of silver coins"unsearched". Mike T
Unsearched means that the seller didn't search them. The people who sold them to him undoubtedly did search them. The only time that key date silver coins were sold as scrap was during the big boom in the early eighties. I was able to search part of one bag in a big coin dealers shop and buy what i wanted for junk metal prices until he returned from lunch and made me stop looking. My score was a 1932-d, a 1932-s and a 1938-d. Not bad for a buck even when a buck cost me $48. It pays to be very nice to the help. exanimo, ss
