I have 50 Gold coins (1990 Irish 50 ECU) that I plan to sell on Ebay. I’ve heard that some graders will give you a higher grade if you pay them more. I want to know if it is worth it to take my coins to a grader.

Is it illegal to melt gold coins?

s_m_i_l_e_s_22 asked:


I saw that a law was passed through the US mint that it is illegal to melt US coins, but specifically discussed pennies, nickels, and other coins in circulation. Does anyone know if it i also illegal to melt gold coins like twenty dollar coins from the 1890’s to 1900’s? If you could please include specific references for your answer.
I know that these coins are more valuable as coins and not gold melt, but i would still like to know the laws.
