Coins & bullion
Melt value is the floor — never the ceiling.
Bullion is paid on metal content. But some coins are worth far more to collectors than to the furnace — our system flags them for a specialist before any offer is made.

Good news for collectors
The 1893-S Morgan above melts at under $50 in silver — but collectors pay thousands for it. When a date, mint mark or condition suggests collector value above melt, we never quote melt. A numismatic specialist reviews it and you get the better number.
