I would absolutely hold it unless you needed the cash. Silver has dropped a bit lately. But I am convinced will soon reach the 15 dollar per ounce soon. But I am talking non-collectable coins. Key silver dates and such are so volatile anymore, grading et al. Dealers may give you 70 percent of value of a key coin and would vary of course. Ebay would be a source. I guess the bottom line is I would hold on to my finds. They dont eat much laying in a folder.

Good question, never really thought about what I would do................If your collection is big enough I guess I would consider setting up at a flea market or two, at least you would walk away with cash in hand and not have the hassle with a return from an ebay sale.........

There are jewlery shops that will buy junk gold or silver. They will buy the coins at close to the price of silver.

This page will give you a rough idea about how much your coins are worth in melt.

One night i was bored so i added up the total Ounces of silver in the coins I had. Just in coins I have about 20 ounces of silver. Some of my coins are worth more numismatically but if i ever went crazy and sent them in for melt, that would be about $260 in silver melt at $13/oz

lets say I do find gold/silver
