Hey guys
Just thought you guys would like to know I unloaded everything in my stock pile. I had roughly 11 rolls of 40's, 6 rolls of rosies, and 26 rolls of 90's. I decided to propose to the Merc. Magnet. I was planing all along to unload the silver when it was time to get the ring, but boy did it hurt.

Anyways got 47.50 a roll for the 40's, and 120.50 a roll for the 90's. This was on Thursday when the price had dropped 2 straight days. LOL ofcourse if I held on for one more day I prob would have made an extra 100.00. But whatever. Anyways I ended up getting $4,007.00 for everything I had. Only things I kept where the collectible stuff, my almost full roll of mercs, and 3 of my 4 rolls of Walkers.
When the ring is sized and ready il take a pic so you guys can see it before she does.

UPDATE
So guys here is the ring for Eva and on Sunday I asked her to marry me and she said YES..

Re: UNLOADED EVERYTHING......................

That's a nice chunk of change.

I hate shopping for diamonds. It's nerve racking. I spent months looking last time. Hopefully, I have done it for the last time (at least as far as engagement rings go).

You should check out http://www.bluenile.com/. It's nice to be able to select the stone separate from the setting. I got my last one there. Excellent prices too.

Good luck with it.

I'm glad my wife did not want a diamond, when we married she only wanted a Gold band, gold was around $300 ounce back then so we paid little for both.

Sometimes a guyz gotta do what a guyz gotta do. I had a shotgun wedding myself, so my wife and I settled for generic bands, promised her one day she'd get a nice one. ffd

Re: UNLOADED EVERYTHING......................

nice man. I had to sell my 78 Camaro when it was time to get a ring. Sad day, but also a good choice. Hope all goes well for you!

Re: UNLOADED EVERYTHING......................

Congratulatons Keith ! I got married in a small Kingdom in Europe. Back then they did not give engagement rings. One just exchanged the gold bands during the wedding.I was married in a Church that was built a few years before Columbus discovered America. 36 years and 364 days ago.(just a reminder for myself).

Looking to buy!!!
Re: UNLOADED EVERYTHING......................

Well we do this CRH for many reasons and one of those is investment...I know the best investment I made 18 years ago was asking my wife to marry me. So looks to me like you invested the silver well. HH!!!

Re: UNLOADED EVERYTHING......................

Keith, I was wondering about the Merc magnet. It has been a while since you posted anything about her. Good to hear your sticking with her for the long haul. I too am contemplating sell a bit of my stash. It hurts to part with it though.

Congrats man, that's a nice ring. I got married over the weekend, it was a lot of fun. It all goes by so fast. We were engaged for 2 years, seems like a few months though. Have you two decided on a date yet?
