I bought a bag of dimes to go through today. The manager was nice enough to pull it off of the machine early for me today before it was full ($857). In going through it I found three silver dimes. Two were Roosies (1960 + 1964), and the other was a Merc with the date so worn that it is difficult to tell the year. You can see that it is a date in the teens 191? Maybe it's a 1916 D? Who knows?

The big find though was a portion of either a gold bracelet or necklace. It is stamped "10K Italy" and weighs in at 5g. According to the calculator I checked, that puts it at a scrap value of about $85!!! Not too shabby!!!

Yep. It was just floating around in the bag. Just lucky I guess. I found a small silver ring once in a bag from the same source, but this is much better! :-)

Sweet gold man hang on to your gold if you don't need the money its bull run is not over its guna sky rocket again
 

As crazy and backward as it sounds, I usually sell my scrap gold and buy silver with it! I think I may just like silver too much!!! :-)
