Over a year ago I weighed my 80 ct coin wallet at 1lb 14oz. That doesn't include any additions since or US coins in folder/albums and type sets like 7070/Capital plastic holders or wild in tubes in safe or...

Get the point, who cares. I do have time on my Hands to identify and label foreign silver 2x2's, but my ADD/OCD does not factor in cataloguing every last coins ASW. gotta give my worthless relatives something to do once I'm gone, ya know...

CORRECTION #2: I think a little over 29 pounds. Forgot to add commemoratives, foreign coins, and bulk coins.

According to my Numista page, 340 g (just under 11 troy ounces).
That said, this is ASW, not physical weight, it doesn't include many of my early purchases (basically anything I hadn't seen in the last year) and some of the more exotic stuff (ancient and medieval), and almost none of it is US Modern (maybe one or two coins).

If the calculations I made last week are correct, I have total of 698,429 grams of pure silver in coins (or 855,034 grams of silver coins).
Yeah, I really went into details there

I only have about 15 pounds of silver coins with few gold pieces.

I have to add 10 pounds/year for couple of decades to reach my weight

Oh, sorry ... I alwasy forget that we write numerals different here. What I wanted to write is that I have just over 698 grams in silver.

Numista says I have 54.5 oz of silver. This does not include any US silver or foreign bullion coins. Long ago, I pulled 30 to 40 pounds of US silver coins from circulation, as they were disappearing.

Have you ever tried to put those into sets? See if you have all the silver Rosies or decades of Washingtons?
