Annual end of year clad for silver exchange !

[Ed (Upstate NY)]

Every January I head to the coin star machine to exchange my clad coins, nickels and pennies found during the previous year. I had a poor year digging clad with only $64.00 total but I was able to boost my totals by including the proceeds by selling two dug Albany, NY dog tax tokens (1898 & 1905) on eBay for $91.00. My total of $155.00 bought me a 5 ounce silver bar and three one ounce American Silver eagles. Sure looks nicer than a pile of crusty coins and two beat dog tags !

I'd say you're right Ed. They do look good.

Looks like you made a good swap. That silver looks better than any crusty old clad any day.

Well done. Definitely a good idea that I may steal from you.

Another good thing about your trade is the silver will grow in value over the years, nice investments. Why didn't I think of this?

Great idea.
