I have a relative who worked in retail for year. At the end of every shift she'd go through the dimes and quarters for me pulling out all the pre-64 stuff and replacing it with later dates.

I paid her face value for it. We did this for years.

I have a couple pounds of those old coins locked up in my safe. I had friends that called me nuts for wasting my time on it. They don't say that any more.

This article is full of crap. I don’t believe a word of it.

You can buy pre-65 silver at or below spot, including delivery, for spot price ($1000 face bags) at tulving.com.

Maybe some local gougers are getting more. But I GUARANTEE that no one is selling silver proofs or Eagles for less than spot. Nobody.

Check consignment shops. The consignors generally don’t update the price of their products very often. I got $4 in face value coins for $67.

What fool would sacrifice proof coins for scrap value?

Thanks for posting.

A relative just gave me a small sack of silver coins. First thing I thought of course, was how much are they worth. Then when and where can I cash them in.
