Found the bag during my corona virus lockdown cleaning. Forgot I had it. I hadn't misplaced the silver. I just pulled that out for the picture.

An 1882 Belgium 20 Franc piece for my world gold collection. While my main focus is AGEs and pre-33 U.S. gold, I do love to pick up these old foreign pieces at melt. I’ll occasionally pick one up if it’s from a country I don’t already have in my collection. Passes the time until the premiums come down on U.S. minted bullion.

This arrived today... coolest art bar EVER!
I got it directly from MK Barz.
Have you seen the one he is considering with the beaver?
I haven’t! What is it?
Well....without getting in too much trouble with our gracious hosts....he showed a prototype on Instagram of a cute beaver that....well, let's just say had recently been in contact with a razor! In his story he was running a yes or no survey asking if he should produce it for public sale. All I could do is send him the lol/crying emoji! Lmao! Stay tuned.
A virus silver bar.... I am so ready for this to be over with.... That is all that is on the news, internet, social media.... Lets get back to scandal and politics... Cheers, RickO

Don’t worry the virus won’t be on the silver. Silver antibacterial.

@Kliao.... That is very true..... Always found it humorous, when, back in the early 2000's and the big drive to eliminate lead in electronics was going on (solder etc.)...They wanted to use silver... the big concern was 'leaching' of the lead in soil/water.... Well, lead does not leach, but silver does, and it is fatal to aquatic life and other organisms. Cheers, Ricko

A virus is not a bacteria although it wouldn't surprise me if silver also killed viruses.
I read that UV light will kill viruses.
Worry is the interest you pay on a debt you may not owe.
So yesterday I found another spoon for the collection. It came in with scrap silver jewelry, this was the only spoon in the lot. Low and behold, it’s a match to one I already have.
What are the odds!?
And, what’s more, it was the other size. apparently there were two sizes I had the smaller one I found about 3 years ago. I didn’t think I’d ever find the larger one at least cheaply but there it was last night!
I don’t normally mess with souvenir spoons, but occasionally I’ll find a better type and put it in the collection...
These were made by Durgin, they had something to do with the Daughters of the American Revolution.
DAR is hidden in the bowl, really cool if you ask me.
What's your plan for the other panels? I'd be an interested buyer.
Already cracked them all out. I'm hanging on to them anyway. Almost 31 rolls worth. So worth the extra space.
I also have about 300 to 400 1992 silver proof sets, some still sealed in the original US Mint blue shipping boxes. Bought over the years at regional coin shows on the cheap when silver was EL CHEAPO.

Well, if you ever need to rid your self of the halves I do quite well online with them.

Pricey... But Very Pretty
Since I will more than likely never have the gold original, I decided to at least add this Silver 2 oz Intaglio Mint to my collection:
Both are very nice!

Almost forgot my eBay bucks.
Hope I'm doing it right.
I jumped on this for $19.99
Also received another 1/4 oz. for the stack.

And, when putting it away, I snapped a quick picture in the box I keep some of my silver collection in.
I think I may have a slight addiction.

Yes sir. They take up way too much space in the safe. Bought all these year of issue from "The Mint".
I thought it was plastic, too. Bakelite, to be precise, but, I found it's actually horn.
It's a Jensen piece.

The ribbon around the top of the spoons - can't quite make out the lettering. What is it?

That is a lot of silver, I just look for silver tankards....the traditional style. Not too common... Cheers, RickO

@fivecents - that's purty stuff.
I knew it would happen.
I couldn't help myself - High gold prices be dammed! I had to buy a little yellow today.

Silver quarter proof sets just became much smaller.
@fivecents... That is a pile of silver there....Last time I saw that many quarters was from a quarter slot machine jackpot in Vegas....
