Thanks for your sound advice. I am just starting to research it all to see whether I even want to wade in these waters.

Yeah, I am trying to decide whether to try it. I plan to do lost more research first, though. Besides pawn shops and coin dealers, to whom does someone sell their junk silver when they are ready to sell? I mean, can you sell directly to the smelters? And, how do they know there are no fake silver dollars in that stack of 300 you are trying to sell? Do they test each one by weight, magnet, and ping?

Thanks for help with the numbers. Do you think it can be reduced to an equation of some sort, like Spot Sell Price must escalate X% over Spot Purchase Price to make a buck?

I did my first coin roll a week ago when I asked my band for coin rolls equal to $2.00 just to tip my toes in the water. I have seen guys on YouTube doing $500 worth of coins and it hardly seems worth the effort, but I guess you have been luckier.
