I won some mad money from the Texas Lottery, so I picked up some silver at the coin shop yesterday. I had a $200 budget & it rang up exactly $200 on the scale (10.25 oz with 3 or 4 coins in flips). I'll probably be uploading closeups on a few of these, but how did I do on a 5 minute grab?
1. If I were you I'd have gotten a bit more coherency. 2. That doesn't look like ten Oz. of silver to me.
Assuming 10.25 actual ounces of silver, you did a fine job. Even if what you purchased is only 90% silver, I still think you did alright.
I just finished tallying up the silver content - it's approximately 9.42 oz ASW.
