I bought them and they said they had some silver dollars and brought them out they had 11 1991 silver bullion and I bought them also. would up with 24 40%ers.

SWEET!!!!!!!!!!! nice score!!! thats how the silver/crhing gods get u hooked, they tease u by giving u all u want at 1st, then when ur really craving silver, u always get skunked! :laughing9:
PS i always buy the silver rounds that are literally just coin shaped ounces of silver, not produced by the mint, in other words not having any monetary value other than melt, cuz knowing myself, i would get a huge stash of them, and then trade them in at the bank for face value. (once when i was younger, i bought a red seal fiver from a coin store, but then i needed $$$ for something, so i spent it! :tongue3: ive always regretted it, altho it was just one red seal fiver, i prob. lost a grand total of fifty cents right there :laughing9:)

Agree with Golden Silver. That is a once in a lifetime Hunt.

Incredible. The most I have gotten in Silver Dollars was two worn peace dollars from a bank and I was more than happy.


By the tone on you story looks that you were telling it very calm.

I would have been, " Hey Guysssssssssssssssssss. Guess whatttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt"

Congrats.

I'd think that was an unbelieveable find,if I didn't believe in beginners luck. Plus I got a Silver Eagle on my second crh.
Congratulations on a terrific find :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
Happy 4th
Rich
