      I wasn't planning on using it , just tossed in the fact that I have   
   some ... got it at a yard sale for about 10% of it's value . I love yard

   I acquired mine similarly cheaply at a flea market. The price of Silver is   
   bouncing around $80 per Troy ounce of 31.10 grams after peaking over $100. A   
   standard ounce is 28.35 grams, a pound is 453.6g. Thus a pound of Silfos   
   contains $175 +/- in Silver.
