Sorry Moonshine but the pic is gone so I can't see the round (network at work strips those). That's not really important for my comment: Note to all silver round collectors ... not all rounds are equal. I recently divested in some of my rounds and the buyer put them on the scale. The name brands were exactly 1 oz (Sunshine and Englehardt). The no-names were consistently "just short" of the 1 oz mark. When buying off brands/no names, put them on the scale if you can.  |

This Canada Dry is definitely scratched. My old dog got a hold of the presentation case it was in and destroyed it. The coin was dragged across the carpet resulting in the scratches. I still have another that the silly mutt missed though.

that's got to be the saddest story today no pun intended lol how was the funeral? lol sorry that was only almost funny I wouldn't hurt my dog's unless they left teeth marks in the coin. lol but being this is only a round and not a coin I would think the value is still there.
Gary too

Silver rounds come in a variety of designs - some sell for pure bullion value, some for a bit more (like Englehard Prospectors), and some sometimes sell to certain people for collectible prices - though I don't pay that much for an ounce of silver!

I have some up in the ebay forum, You are right, they make them for about anything but finding unique ones with your interests in mind is cool in my book! |
