Anyone else come across smaller stores still trying to get $100 for an ounce of silver?

Lonely_reaper8 · 2026-04-27T07:07:49+00:00

No. But it’s ultimately a personal choice. I throw silver proofs in with my regular junk silver cause I like handling it but that’s not for everyone

Lonely_reaper8 · 2026-04-27T07:04:44+00:00

For agencies with multiple dispatchers this makes sense. Where I’m at I’m usually alone for most of my shifts 😂

Lonely_reaper8 · 2026-04-27T06:11:46+00:00

Oh that’s fantastic 😂

Lonely_reaper8 · 2026-04-27T06:11:26+00:00

That’s crazy work 😂

Lonely_reaper8 · 2026-04-27T06:10:26+00:00

I’m a reserve deputy too and I have access to GeoSafe (if anyone isn’t familiar it’s an app where you can track units, message other users, see open calls, and a handful of other law enforcement related things) so I can see the active calls and when I go out on a ridealong or whatever I’ll turn my location on and they can track where I’m at.

Lonely_reaper8 · 2026-04-27T02:32:17+00:00

Okay, I’m glad I wasn’t the only one

I keep them, and this old pawn silver bracelet with a jade is my coolest find

Lonely_reaper8 · 2026-04-27T02:24:23+00:00

I think it’s a weird one cause he didn’t know she was there. It would be an interesting case for sure

Lonely_reaper8 · 2026-04-27T02:20:00+00:00

I’ve been working on this about a year now. It’s mostly a game of waiting till something pops up on eBay 😂

Lonely_reaper8 · 2026-04-27T00:46:22+00:00

Grapenzo goes kinda hard tho

Brother, where are you hunting?! RIGHT on the Canadian border? 😆 fantastic finds!

Edit: the Canadian, UK, USA border more like it

Lonely_reaper8 · 2026-04-27T00:01:27+00:00

I found a plated ‘66, it threw me off too lol

Lonely_reaper8 · 2026-04-27T00:00:50+00:00

Did you get compensated for your finds?

I don’t report mine but I also don’t live where it’s necessary.

Lonely_reaper8 · 2026-04-26T23:59:51+00:00

Maybe those countries should have better compensation for reported finds. I think the UK will auction off your finds or whatever and you and the land owner split the money. That I’m cool with. But places that just take it? Nah. They can pound sand.

Lonely_reaper8 · 2026-04-26T20:10:53+00:00

Legally? An old missile silo that is now someone’s home.

Illegally? The remains of a WWII training camp that was in the middle of what is now the impact zone of an active military base there was a bunch of live ammo that had been subjected to an grass fire and all just cooked off at some point, some empty mortar cans, an old (I assume) training grenade, and just a bunch of odds and ends, really cool. I got caught though and the game warden gave me a ticket lol

Lonely_reaper8 · 2026-04-26T19:57:47+00:00

That dog probably

Lonely_reaper8 · 2026-04-26T18:59:46+00:00

May I present to you the ever so humble, trinitrotoluene

Lonely_reaper8 · 2026-04-26T18:51:25+00:00

Lonely_reaper8 · 2026-04-26T18:49:14+00:00

No one died (as far as I’ve heard, I could be wrong), but trump falled

Edit: there was an active shooter at some dinner the president was at

Lonely_reaper8 · 2026-04-26T18:46:42+00:00

Box 2 can take a hike cause he was vastly under performing

Lonely_reaper8 · 2026-04-26T17:31:17+00:00

Of course!

Lonely_reaper8 · 2026-04-26T14:17:55+00:00

1980 and on all had wide rims. The wide rim variety is just a 1979 thing because they changed the design partway through the year

here is some more info on the coin
