<p>[QUOTE=&quot;gabatgh, post: 231984, member: 4148&quot;]This weekend we happened to be at a flea market and a dealer had a walking liberty half dollar that was turned into a pendant. It was hammered into a dome and had a hole at the top. No jump ring, no chain. The dealer wanted twenty dollars. The melt value of that coin is only $6.61.</p><p><br /></p><p>This isn&#039;t something I would normally look at, much less buy, but I&#039;ve been thinking about this silver stuff that I have to sell.</p><p><br /></p><p>Is three times the silver melt value considered &#039;normal&#039;? Was it that high because it was jewelry?</p><p><br /></p><p>We have one of these: <a href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/311786267486" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/311786267486" rel="nofollow">http://www.ebay.com/itm/311786267486</a>. Mine weighs thirty nine grams. According to kitco, the scrap value is $17.94. The auction ended at $92.79. </p><p><br /></p><p>This is why I&#039;m trying to learn what to do with this pile of sterling stuff![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
