So I was thirsty...
Posted: Wed Nov 16, 2011 8:13 pmOne never to pass up a good dea,l I stopped in a Circle K for a 44oz , .69 cent Thirst Buster. Gave the clerk two clad Kennedy and was looking at the Jerry Lewis M.D.A. donation box. I mentioned to the clerk I was just looking to see what coins were in there. Last week in another Circle K I spotted a wheatie in one and the clerk fished it out for me and I swapped it for a zinc. I mentioned I was a coin collector. She pulled out her purse and said look what I got today, she pulled out a 1998 Silver Eagle. She said A guys comes in here everyday and buys a Thirst Buster with them!!!!! After some serious negotiations I walked out of there with a Silver Eagle for $22.00...And no I didn't leave my phone number to buy the rest, I live about 4 hours away. 
I carry a rare earth magnet in my front pocket. and i always test everything. It passed the magnet test, the visual test, the ping test ( dropping it and listening for that sweet ping of silver ), before I bought it, and it passed the weight test, after I bought it . If it's a fake they spent about $34.00 in silver to make a great fake.
