"Evil" junk silver?

Default"Evil" junk silver?


One of the interesting things about Europe is that along with the obivously rich culture each country also has its own junk silver. Some if it though, has a pretty dark origin.
Here in Spain the last junk silver was made in the 60s and pictured general Franco's image. They are actually pretty nice, big 100 pesetas coins .800 silver. The price is usually pretty good, very close to spot. Then again, Franco "Leader of Spain by the Grace of God" as the coin says, wasnt exaclty a nice guy. Then you have German junk silver, wich is .900, but then many Reichmarks have the eagle above a swastika within wreath that reeks evil.
In America this is a non issue given that American pre 65 is clearly the way to go but I was wondering what oyu think.
Would you buy this kind of junk silver, overlook the historic and simbolic context and just look at the metal? Would you accept it as payment?
