Melt is the floor: what the metal alone is worth today. A coin's collector value can be higher (date, mint mark, condition). It is rarely lower.

A dealer's buy price sits under both melt and retail on purpose — that spread is the margin that keeps the doors open. Ours is listed openly instead.
What makes one worth more than melt
- A common brilliant-uncirculated Eagle usually sells for spot plus a small premium, not exactly melt.
- 1995-W proof (about 30,000 struck) and 1996 (the lowest bullion-strike mintage, 3.6 million) are the two dates worth checking before you spend one.
