Come on up for a stay. Can't beat the exchange rate.
Great steal of a deal.
From Wikipedia - The bullion value of the Olympic coins;
The $10 denomination coins have a gross weight of 48.600 grams
while the $5 denomination coins have a gross weight of 24.300 grams.
Each coin is 92.5% silver for a net silver weight of 44.955 grams
(1.4453 troy ounces) and 22.478 grams (0.7227 troy ounces) of silver
respectively.
So you got ~3.6 oz of silver in those 3 Olympic coins, nice.
The rest is gravy.

Even at yard sales, people seem to think their "old coins" are more valuable than their first born child ! So finding a "deal" is hard to do bro...good job on the pile ! -- |

ty Jbuck for finding the missing thread, I wondered where it went oh so long ago lol. Ty for all the replies and yes it certainly turned out to be a fantastic deal.
I've not checked the world coins yet but there sure was plenty to fill holes for now with some of the loose canadian coins in the mix.
So true about garage sales, either coins are crazy priced or really on the cheap, if you don't shop then the deals don't often come your way.
Cheers
Jon

Well perhaps in the future you can use the buddy system to be sure that threads don't go rougue. As I sat for some time trying to figure out what I did wrong with it being basically deleted and a message of be sure to check the rules and regulations prior to posting. As I felt I was onboard with all criteria to meet the regs and rules here.

We are the same humans as everyone else. Well, most of us, I am a robot, but still, mistakes will happen. I blame this one on a spammer from Madagascar. Yeah, that's the ticket, a spammer and his wife... Morgan Fairchild.  Okay, back to work. |
