A thought to hide silver
I thought of something that might help a person hide silver to make it more secure or overlooked in a SHTF "shit hit the fan" case.
So I am thinking a person that wants to hide some silver could use these.
Then melt them down and pour them into fishing weights.
Fishing weights come in all sizes and shapes
To go Chinook salmon fishing we usually use 8 to 12 once cannonball sinkers.
The molds look like this "but you might need different molds for pouring silver".
Then you could blacken them to make them look old, or shoot / throw them at people if needed lol.
This might be a good idea for preppers to save silver.
Thanks for checking out my post

It's a good idea, but you have to make sure your mold has a melting point higher than that of Silver. Aluminum's melting point is 1221 degrees F and silver's is 1763 degrees F. Lead is only 621 degrees F
Yeah you would need like the cast iron molds or something. Thanks so much for checking my post out.
Cool idea just better not forget which ones are for fishing!
Lol Very true.
100 oz bars blackened up and stored in a scuba divers weight belt.
It's just lead bro' honest :)
Thats a great thought also. Lol would sure work.
I'm thinking some silver cannon balls sound bad ass. Taking it there 😁
SWEET. Now we arrrrre talking lol.
Silver cannon balls 😂 I like that! I casted a marble once, it made a perfect sphere! Nice post bud!
Bingo!
Avast!
This is a good idea. I do believe it has been done already by YPS maybe and they send it out in a little Tacklebox. Thanks for the post.
Very cool idea would probably fool most crooks !!!!
A mable sounds cool too.
Oh wow I did not know YPS did something like this but it sure is a great idea.
Fool them for sure lol that is the idea so they dont get the good stuff. Lol
Very cool idea! Just make sure someone don't swipe them to cast lead bullets.
