there's probably someone at the state flea market that knows some shit about it, or a pawn shop.

maybe a there's a coin collecting group in the area?

melting down coinage isn't legal; luckily for you, they're probably worth more as-is

lmfao. you can't be more wrong.

With the current price of silver, each quarter is worth $7.23. You can get close to that on ebay if you break it down into smaller lots. Make the buyer pay to ship, or just stuff them in a priority mail box

You can't melt your own property? Damn, I was going to have nachos later tonight

You don't own coins.

Evidence:

"Ten rare $20 gold coins that could have been worth more than $40 million to a Philadelphia family are the rightful property of the U.S. Treasury, a Philadelphia jury has ruled. http://coincollectingnews.blogspot.com/2011/07/rare-1933-double-eagles-ruled-property.html "

you own the value the coins represent, but not the physical medium of the coin itself.

Thats pretty much a technicality, and thus why Daniel Synder hasn't been locked up.

Wow. I've got a few .999 1 oz silver coins somewhere around here. If a quarter is worth that much maybe it's time to find those jokers and sell them.

Better sell them before August 2nd.

7/29/2011 3:56:54 PM

The .999 silver coins are worth approximately $42-45 apiece depending on how much a buyer will pay over spot.
A dealer would prob give you close to $40

7/29/2011 4:47:03 PM

Wow. Actually I think I have 7 or 8 of these:

I guess the person trying to sell these is looking for 70 pesos.

If it's going to drop Aug 2, then a buyer would probably already have come down on any offer. I might just leave them in a forgotten corner and let them tarnish another decade.

That's some pretty crappy evidence considering

Quote :

""They didn't go out through the front door," says Romero. "This was clearly a crime. The people of the United States were robbed." The U.S. Secret Service probed the case in the 1940s, she says, and every coin they found in circulation traces back to Switt. But the criminal case was never prosecuted because the statute of limitations had run out by the time the Secret Service got involved, she says. The government did recover at least nine coins and melted them down. But somehow, 11 survived — the 10 that were in Langbord's deposit box and one that was the subject of litigation in the late 1990s. It is believed to be the Double Eagle purchased by King Farouk of Egypt in the 1940s."

but yes, technically all coinage is US government property.
