Yeah what they do is they say scrap value of the metal because the diamonds or whatever aren't worth shit, which is partially true. Don't believe the Sterling/Signet bullshit about diamonds. They all have blood diamonds being pumped out. Diamond mines in Canada are pumping out way more than most 3rd world countries could dream of.
Theyre relativly cheap but there's a market for them soooooo. God I Austrian economics some times
seriosuly brian. I would be interested to take a look and see what you got. If not that go see Joey at Richfield Coin. Probably not going to be what you want to hear about it's value but he'll be honest with you about it.
