At long last these arrived in the mail recently, only just got access to a decent camera to take photos. I tried with my phone, but it's a potato.
I haven't looked, but I also haven't seen any Biden coins, who tf would buy them? He has zero enthusiasm behind him. Trump is the God Emperor.
Interestingly XRF'd at just on .990 purity despite it being listed as .925. Could it perhaps be a jeweler's copy or just bad alchemy 120 years ago when it was made? https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces11590.html
2 German medals/rounds, both XRF'd as .999 purity. Can anyone shed any light on who minted them? - I'm thinking it's a German Mint as the little "1000" at the bottom of both coins is a German designation of pure silver I believe. Any info would be appreciated as they are not on Numista unfortunately (all the marks are on the capsule, not the coins) 30 Years - Social Market Economy 1948-1978 10th Anniversary of the Death of Konrad Adenauer
I didnt buy but i pulled a bunch of copper pipes out of the dumpster at work some ignoramus threw away. I want to try to melt them down with my oxy/acetelyne torch and pour a bar for fun. Has anyone tried this? I was just going to order a mold kit thing on amazon and see what happens.
I found some YouTube videos but my internet sucks here. I'm traveling for work this week so I'll watch them in the hotel.
Finally received my 75th End of WWII ASE today nearly 1 month after ordering it. It sat "processing" for nearly 3 weeks before it shipped and I was a bit worried that they were going to cancel it, although after I queried why it was still processing, they assured me that I would receive it and that there was currently a delay in shipping. 9 days after shipping it was delivered to me and here it is. As usual, it was a frustrating experience with the website constantly crashing and it took me approximately 20 minutes of constantly having to refresh in order to add it to my cart and successfully checkout. Unfortunately I missed out on the 75th Anniversary Silver Medal as it became unavailable as I was trying to buy it amid the constant page refreshing.
We put up a geodome at my sons cabin today and he time lapsed a video and put it on youtube haha. I thought it was pretty cool!
My daughter was off work today so she came with my wife and I to Salida hitting all the thrift shops. My lcs is here in Salida and we are stopping by and I brought some cash but the suspense is killing me! I need to give the girls a little time to shop around as I sit in the car ready to go and tapping my foot. I wasnt really in the market to buy right now, trying to save cash for a sawmill but I cant resist if we are already here. Never hurts to put a little more savings away is always my mindset, plus bullion shopping is one of my faves next to gun shopping. I'll post if there was anything I couldnt live without haha. Hopefully hes got a quarter oz of gold for spot and I'll jump on that faster than a pedophile at legoland!
Woop woop hit the silver dollar jackpot and nice old coins! The oldest 4 are the worst as usual. 1 1884 1 1885 1 1887 1 1889 11 1921 3 1922 1 1923 1 1927 I love that old shit! He wanted $28 each which is $3 over but I offered $25 each for 20. I'm usually a spot price stacker until it comes to silver dollars. I will buy those for spot even tho 90 percent no prob.
