Has anyone else noticed that the quality of junk silver on ebay is degrading? Lot sizes are shrinking as well. I guess sellers are keeping their better coins and just parceling out their dirty, bent, scratched garbage when they can get a decent price.  I used to only find one or two bad coins in a $10 roll of Walkers, now it's almost half with dates worn smooth, badly toned, etc. They're going straight into my "sell in a calamity box" or when silver hits $30.

Do you guys find that with all these worn 90% coins that you may not be getting full weight for your silver buy?
Without some UNCs in the bag, probably you are coming up short of the 715 oz/$1000 bag standard. How short is the weight these days on the coins you buy? |
