Call it what you want but diligently done and if silver ever really jumps one could get rich from scrap that way. but will silver ever hit $60 per OZ.

who knows? for whatever reason the market manipulators have kept silver value low for decades. i'm still trying to understand the 1980 sliver spike 33 years later.
i think any precious metal would be a good investment (especially if you're getting it free from scrap) but i wouldn't trade nearly $300 worth of scrap copper for a coin worth less than $200.
just my 2 cents.

I agree I want silver REAL not a proverbial 1 oz Morgan worth $200 (not to say if you have it thats bad) I feel in our economy we need to get away from the created values of items that will fall on there face in a economic collapse
I guess the best investment would be - food , water ,and a gun.

good article about the manipulation of silver in the 70's leading up to the commodities market rule changes in an effort to crash silver prices:

i still like silver as an investment but i would search for it at huge discounts in scrap rather than buying coins at a premium.
