I had a chance to get down to the local BST today...

I Found the onzas in the generic pile, picked them up for melt.

Interesting enough there are 3 different kinds, 1994 Fat with reeded edge, 1985 fat w/ lettered edge, and the 2 1979 balance scale type

Also picked up a Norfed 1oz, a buck over spot.

And finally I found a dollar in 90% that appealed to me

Two full rim barbers and Two SLQs with dates, most notable the 1926

Game on!

It's all about what the people want...

Received these this week from Provident as well. ASEs are vintage 2012.

Not much for me this week, I found this for $37 in the misc. silver box at a little shop.

And these I found at an antique shop on Monday.
They are some type of gaming chip... all cast in aluminum I believe. I liked the simple eagle design.
There's no other information on the box or what game they were originaly intended for.

Hate to say it, but I kinda like those gaming chips, Melty.

I went to the coin show with good intentions of picking up some platinum, but I didn't see much.........

So.............I picked up some copper instead!

This bar was minted in 1973 by the Belford Mint. It is not really a rare art bar IMO, however, certain silver art bars that were minted in the '70's seem to be getting harder to find. Maybe it is just in my local area. It will vary by location.

DISCLAIMER: I am NOT a '70's silver art bar expert but I try my best to play one on the Internet.

You did very well. I like the toned (not polished) look.

Here's a darkside coin I picked up at a local coin show today. When the dealer quoted a price less than melt I didn't haggle.
