http://www.providentmetals.com/bullion/ ... nnies.html Always nice to see someone selling copper pennies.

Did you see the prices though? They appear very high, curious if they are moving any

Yes, very high. I don't know - maybe someone should ask about buying a whole bunch and see what they say.

How can they say "sold under melt" on their site when they are $109.95 for a bag of 5,000 coins? Are they saying the shipping and handling is something like $50-60?
Former stock broker w/ ~20 yrs. at one company. Spoke with 100k+ people and traded a lot (long, short, options, margin, extended hours, etc.).

Please note that ANY stocks I discuss, no matter how compelling, carry risk- sometimes substantial. If not prepared to buy it multiple times in modest amounts without going overboard (assuming nothing really wrong with the company), you need to learn more about the market and managing risk. Also, please research covered calls (options) as well.

Provident has been offering copper pennies for years. Back when they first listed them they were indeed under melt. Melt has dropped a lot since then...

Probably no buy price because they're not selling any, whose going to pay over 2x face when melts at 1.4?
