Let me start by saying whoever painted all these 1972 Kennedy Half dollar edges grey is a complete asshole. Dozens of times I thought I'd found silver. Not cool asshat. Not cool.

On a lighter note, not a bad day for picking up precious metals for pennies on the dollar. I found a 14K white gold necklace that was labeled "925" for less than $10. That's quite a score!

Sterling Silver: I was able to add 39.79g to the stack. Silver Spot Price: $14.58 oz. Melt value = $18.70

14K Gold: I was able to add 4.63g to the stack. Gold Spot Price: $1249.00 oz. Melt value = $108.46

$127.16 in melt value for the day. Not too shabby... and paid around $21 bucks for it. I'll probably sell the 14K necklace on my Ebay store for much more than the melt value.

Happy Hunting!

Holy crap, awesome finds, wish we had places like that in the UK

I'd be melting all that extra stuff down and making bars :)

and to the asshat that painted the coins silver - Not cool

Thank you for your continued support of SteemSilverGold

Decent scores buddy! I always melt my gold jewelry finds. I Probably should look in to reselling it!

I melt the broken stuff, sell the working/vintage stuff and buy more gold than what the original melt was worth.

That's how to win bro! I need to figure out how to sell old jewelry. I've never used eBay before.
