From time to time I get trash jobs people pay me to remove trash and some times theres gold silver or cool stuff. This was a good one! This guy just moved and had a big pile of trash he paid me $300 to get rid of it! Nice tip!

And u found $960 in silver including 29 silver dollars? who's idea of trash is that? :icon_scratch:

That's amazing!

I'll usually even bend over to pick up a cent off the ground if it looks copper while other people r throwing away hundreds of dollars in silver and paying hundreds of dollars to get rid of it. These sure r strange times we live in.

Congrats on the incredible score! And I thought buying silver @ face was good...I sure wish I could find a job like yours.

yeah I always wonder if the guys who do those 1-800-got-junk ever find cool treasures amongst all the rubbish they process.

Not sure if its the same thing you do...But my Brother worked for a company that would pay him to remove trash from Foreclosed homes..he has given me mulitple coins he found going thru it, not to mention the countless amounts of Tv's Dvd players...Some places he said it looks like the people left for work one day and never came back

Great finds man!!!!!
