Don, I do save them. Each and every one of them. Including all the silver tokens I have bought from you. None are for sale and none will be going to melt. And if you have others you would like to sell, I am still a buyer for ones I can use in my collection.

The melt price of silver does go up and down. If you have an ounce of silver and take it to your local coin store to sell for melt you will not get the melt value for it. They are a business and will offer you between $1 and $4 back of spot value. That store has to buy back so they can re sell it at a small profit.
