So you are wanting to trade some 90% for some 35%... is that correct? The curious guy in me is just wondering why?

Well, it isn't always constant because the premiums and discounts on the two fluctuate. But at the moment, it seems to me that 35% is trading around 95% melt, and 90% is about 16% above melt. So

1.16x22.5g/dollar asw = 26.1
.95x35g/dollar asw = 33.25

33.25/26.1 = 1.274

so a fair trade is roughly $1.25 face in 90% for $1.00 face in 35%

or 16 war nickels per $1.00 face in 90%
Pennies: $4200 - (0) indians - (5)steel - (1) George V Canadian
Nickels: $6500 - (62)war - (23)buf - (1)V nic - (4) key date jeff's
Dimes: $5000 - (24)roos - (2)merc - (2)AgCAN
Halves: $8000 - (7)'64 - (33)40% - (1)walker

Very close to what I'm adding up as well

$1.274 face of 90% for 1.00 face of 35%

or

15.69 war nickels per 1.00 face of 90%
