I know you do silver ...updated with finds

Postby fasteddy » Wed Sep 26, 2012 11:28 am

One of my BFF's called and said, "I know you do silver"....while cleaning out his recently deceased parents closet, hiding under the shoe shelf in the corner was a box...a shoe box, but was heavier than a box with shoes in it. Yep you guessed it...a shoe box full of US coin silver. He is guessing about ten pounds...looks like I am buying the beer :D , he is smokin some meat :) and we are going to go through it this weekend...Oh the joys of finding treasure :clap:

10 pounds should be about $180 face. Very nice! :mrgreen:

Oh man geeze, tough spot. I hate when it's a buddy or family member..Kinda hard to stick it to them ;) . A while back I bought 200 face from my aunt/uncle and went over the exact numbers with him and wasn't asking a penny over what I was going to sell them for... He tried to haggle with me by saying he shouldn't have to pay for shipping since I was picking them up...geeze talk about trying to do someone a favor!! Silver dopped 2.00 the next day :roll:
