IMG_0546.JPG IMG_0547.JPG I went out by myself on Saturday and Sue and I went out together on Sunday for a pair of hunts at a soccer/Little League field. Combined totals for the two hunts was 114 coins worth $14.50. My clad finds will be used to buy silver or gold at the end of the year. The jar I keep my clad finds in is full.

I do the same thing with my coins and the cash I pick up off the ground. I keep it in a jar and donate it to our local Pregnancy Resource Center once year. Last year, I collected around $150 in cash and coins.

A tip of the hat to you for donating your finds to a worthy cause......

You will be able to purchase a 10 dollar gold coin if this keeps up.

Not quite yet unless I find a lot more in the next month, but at this point I could buy a piece of foreign bullion gold such as Swiss or French Francs or a pair of the small 1/10th ounce gold eagles.

Nice jar load of clad. I do the same thing at the end of the year (provided silver is at a low purchase price).

Thanks......I try to do the same (buying low) but prices generally don't move too much in either direction. I keep records of all my buying and then price average it out.

I'd go with the silver this year. I'd also spend it all on a single coin from ebay. Also liked the others opinions on what to buy or donate that to. Personally, I'll donate my finds after my last post...

Thanks Tuberale…...If I buy silver with it, I'll be spending the money on 90% junk silver coins. If I buy gold it'll be a common date US coin or possibly a foreign bullion coin. I never buy from EBay, I always buy my precious metal and coins at coin shows.
