<p>[QUOTE="SILVER REFINING 101, post: 1932667, member: 71185"]First of all I live on 10 acres and my neighbors know what I do. I don't care either way. Nitric acid if done correctly goes a very long way I can disolve about 50 oz with 1 pint of nitric acid which cost around 30.00. You are making uneducated remarks about refining refining silver is not illegal and if it was you wouldn't be able to readily buy nitric acid. Refining silver is not for everybody you must have skill to pour a decent bar worth selling and would not be worth trying for 10 oz I also wouldn't try it if you look like a meth cooker and you think your neighborhood might think this of you. Bottom line though .999 silver is worth more than 90% junk silver coins whether I do it or someone else. My bars look so good you wouldn't be able to tell whether I made them in my garage or they were done in a factory. In average it cost about 1.30 an ounce to refine silver and silver prices don't have to go up much to pay for cost. Not only that pure .999 silver looks so much better than sterling of even lower grade junk silver coins. It is also fun and rewarding to do this yourself and I would do it even if I didn't make any money at it. If you want help at learning the process I will be glad to give you or anyone else some helpful advise. FYI you can't just go buy a graphite mold and a propane or map torch and think you will be able to pour a good looking silver bar it's not that easy and when you finally master this art it is very rewarding.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
