I had a lot of silver coins when I was a kid.

When I was still quite young in 1980, my father urged me to sell the coins when silver reached $50 per ounce. I did.

Then silver came crashing down because of speculation from the Hunt brothers in Texas, and nearly took the stock market with it.

I wish I still had those coins, but at least I sold them at the top of the market.

Years ago I noticed some coffee cans on the top of my parent’s refrigerator? They were full of silver coins!!!

Yer brother told her many years before to save the silver coins.

I ask my mother age 90 about the silver coins on the fridge?

She knew the price had spiked... so every time the grandkids came by she gave them a hand full to purchase a popsicle!!!

Not my kids, sister’s kids that lived down the street.
