    dale earnhardt 1 pound proof coin

    Did up the yard today not a big day but 400 of mix one battery, some CU and AL i hit $70 fine by me . On my way home found - wire - brass - water heater X 2 Vac 's Good stuff you know
    THEN I stop at a yard sale and see 2 coins called Dale earn Hart 1 pound proof coins , The owner sells them to me for $6 for the pair I figure even if it is Copper with silver or tin plated copper thats an ok deal .My research indicates it's considered a troy pound 12 oz compared to 16 oz and contains no less then
    65 % silver
    That was good luck and i attribute this sale due to my foundation knowledge of copper as i figured in the worst case it was copper so $6 was also fine by me
    also I picked up 7 lb AL for $3
    ------------------------------
    Well news I heard from a coin dealer who keep close tabs with Chinese friends
    told me china is building huge generators at rivers & they are going to be in need of lots of AL & CU he feels CU is going back up in a month
