That's a good yield as far as value of silver. The proofs are 40% silver I believe?

Kudos on the silver! Seems like when someone does get a bag-o-ikes, it usually has one or two goodies in it. Again, congratulations! HH, Gpurs....

Nice finds. What are you doing with the non-silver. I've seen folks get a premium on ebay but I don't know if it's worth the hassle.

I can vouch for it not being worth it. After eBay fees and shipping costs, you're lucky to make a few bucks. Weigh in the time cost of listing, packaging, and shipping the items and unless you don't value your free time or really enjoy those activities.
