Total weight so far is 666 grams of silver. Total cost so far is less than a hundred bucks.

8 bucks for this bag of knick knacks. ~165 grams of sterling in there.

I trade silver coins out of the register at work for face value.

I have like 200 bucks (melt value) worth of dimes and war nickels.before Christmas I sold 4 dollars (face value/16 quarters) of pre 65 quarters to my LCS for 100 bucks (fair deal imo)

Just hold.

I can always sell it if I need money.

It's like a savings account with one extra step.

Only difference is that it pays out like 10x the amount I've put in.

I have an absurd amount of antique silver plated stuff too..

I'm in the middle of learning how to process it/strip the silver plate, but honestly I feel bad about ruining stuff that's older than me by a century.
