<p>[QUOTE=&quot;yakpoo, post: 1390696, member: 18157&quot;]When I was really young, my Grandfather had a dish on his dresser filled with old silver coins. I used to pull the drawers out of the dresser to make a &quot;stairs&quot; so I could climb on top of his dresser and play with the coins. Fast foward to 2005 when silver &quot;shot up&quot; to $7/Oz...everyone was selling silver and few were buying (at that outrageous price!!). I was sucking up all the silver I could find. You could find sterling for less than melt! </p><p><br /></p><p>In my frenzy, I bought a thing that turned out to be some sort of a crumb catcher. Really rich people with Maids and Butlers would have dinner parties with all their sterling. One of the &quot;staff&quot; would walk around the table and sweep up crumbs off the tablecloth from around the messier diners. They would sweep them into this silver thing with a lid and a handle. Well, anyway, I bought one...just for the silver. </p><p><br /></p><p>When I got it, it looked pretty nice. Remembering back to my Grandfather&#039;s dresser, I decided to get a bunch of circulated silver coins and dump it in there so I could run my hands through them like I did when I was young...should the mood strike me. I find the mood strikes me about 2-3 times a month. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i664.photobucket.com/albums/vv10/Yakpoo/Closed.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="http://i664.photobucket.com/albums/vv10/Yakpoo/Open.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /><img src="http://i664.photobucket.com/albums/vv10/Yakpoo/Inside.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
