That's fantastic, what's the difference between #1 & #2 copper?

#1 is bright with no paint, grease, plastic
#2 is everything else

Thanks for watching buddy

Just dug a 10kt ring and spent a bunch of time figuring out it's value, so I'm too lazy to figure yours, but silvers at $28.00 an ounce so....
You almost got everything for free, twice!
Great video, love how the cycle went from scrap copper to scrap silver!

Congrats!, I went to the bank last October to deposit some money in my son's savings, and the cashier had 10 clad/silver Kennedy's in the coin tray. My heart started pounding so hard i could hardly get out that i wanted to buy the half's with the silver edges! As she was making dollar stacks all i could hear was the ringing of silver, what a beautiful sound.
