Sourcing Blank Rounds

Postby IdahoCopper » Tue Feb 26, 2013 12:08 pm

I just called Sunshine Mint to try and buy 1oz blank rounds. They only sell those to "accredited mints".

Does anyone know a source for blanks?

That's a nice way to become an accredited Mint! :thumbup:

Don't worry about it! I can buy all the blanks I want to! You see my certificate here? :lol:

I do have a rolling mill and a punch press. No rimming machine though. It's probably cheaper to buy finished blanks than it is to make them unless you run into some 999 for under spot.
