So, I went and listed the lead shield on ebay. We'll see how it goes.

I'd estimate scrap value of this thing to be about $200 if the lead is sold to reloaders.

I started you off. I know it is not close to the reserve, but it's a start.

**parrothead** · 10-07-2013, 11:33 PM

I am already outbid. Hope it keeps going! Really hoping that it brings double scrap value or better.

So what The hell was that used for ? Transporting atomic cores ? What's the chance of it being hot ?

It was actually used to keep cosmic radiation out for experiments. I guess you could use it to keep it in as well.
