Ugly Silver

Postby Lemon Thrower » Thu Jun 16, 2011 9:42 am

so the Apmex sale got me thinking about the ugliest silver you have ever seen. I don't mean ugly in tone, scuffed, or what have you, but ugly from the get go. Here's the apmex round to get things started.

Too lazy to post a pic, but imagine this.

A SAE that has been in a house fire, then hit with a mapp gas torch till it bubbled, then put in a 60 ton press with rough looking steel on each side of the coin, plus a few metal chips to boot, then had a holed drilled in it and has been on a key chain for about 2 yrs.
