Really neat, thanks for posting those !

.....might be hard to find but I imagine they sell for a little more than the ones that are just copper !

Wow, your a stronger man than I. I get tired digging pennies!

Do you ever find these half breeds like that 80lb tiny copper nugget ? If so you could have like 30-40 lbs of silver. Is this possible ?

I think it's more about the reward.

Yes they come in all sizes. I dug a very large one a few years ago and got offered enough money to buy 2 ctx 3030s. The buyer asked me to clean it up so i figured give it a soak in acid to clean it. Well we will just say i should've mixed the acid mix before i opened my crown royal. Acid mix was way to strong and seperated 90% of the silver from the copper :mad:

I didn't get squat for it other than common scrap weight. So aftter remembering that I think I will go mix me another :laughing:

Any mine in particular? I know where a lot of them are at and may be able to point you in the general direction. Surprised I not buried or lost inside one of them old mines from being a stupid teenager years ago. But abandoned mines were way funner than a swing set in a totter at the time.
