Need the following OBW rolls to complete my 46-64 Roosevelt roll set: 1947-P & D; 1948-D; 1949-P & S; 1950-D & S; and 1952-S. Any help locating any of these OBW rolls would be gratefully appreciated!
Has anyone here actually cut the bars into halves or quarters or seen anyone else do this? I assume these bars appeal to the doomsday crowd that think they may have to barter silver in a SHTF scenario.
Worry is the interest you pay on a debt you may not owe.
I saw it done on a bar. Set it against the wall and the sidewall at a 45, then tapped with a hammer. Well more than a tap, it was a big firm hit with a heavy hammer and the pieces did fly. Took in down to the quarter quick enough. I'd imagine putting it in a vise would shorten the work load.

I'd put it on an anvil and use a wide chisel to cut it into halves or quarters but I can't see doing so any time soon.

I used to go to church with a guy that probably has a boatload of these. He's a big doomsday guy and consiracy nut. He claimed that he spotted a mountain lion in his backyard, which is possible since a few have been found as roadkill over the last 5-10 years around here, but it got crazy. He had a huge bear trap that he was going to use to catch the thing. OK, fine. He then proceded to tell a few of us men that the government has been releasing them in the area. One man asked why they would do that and his exact answer was "because the government wants to depopulate the area".
I'll give him credit. He's very frugal and loves buying up property and land around his home when anything around him comes open. One time he bought several acres of acreage by his house and paid for it with a big bag full of junk Morgans when the owner agreed he would take Morgans as payment. I guess the owner of the property could skirt taxes taking this form if he, say, accepted 1,000 morgans and just reports that he received $1,000 as payment for the land.
He has a huge treadmill set up where, when he has a horse walk on it it generates enough power to power the lights in the kitchen, of course he uses gas for cooking and water. After hiring a new youth pastor he was talking with him and after a few minutes of the guy telling him of his compound the youth pastor asked jokingly "where are the guns buried". He snapped back with a defensive and serious tone "I'm sorry but that is no one's business."
He is definitely ready for something bad to happen, but boy, is he out there.
