Oh no! Is that an mint American silver eagle in my crucible!!! 😱 na is just a cheap genetic knock off lol 🤣🤣🤣 I wanted to make a little silver shot so I melted this baby down. I knew I was gonna melt some old pours and needed little pieces to bring the weight up.

Well i said goodbye to one of my first skulls I ever poured. I wasn't happy with the way it turned out. The great thing is it can always be melted. This one was missing a chunk of the face.

A different one I melted. This one was missing part of the eye and also has a over hang where I missed the mold a little.

I was not disappointed with the new results 😁 I finnaly got both eyes and the cheek to turn out. Plus I got everything in the mold. One came out to 31.08, soooooooooo close... The other 32.2 so a little over an OZT.

The backs agent the prettiest and still need to be cleaned up. The pour lines look cool though.

On the back of this one you can see a little circle. A little bead of flux settled here. I had to knock it off. Hopefully I can polish it or at least make it look a little cleaner.

I had fun and I'm glad they are turning out better! Hope you are enjoying seeing the progress as much as I am 😁

Thank you for what you do 😁😎

Good job there my friend. When I saw you put the first pic up on discord I was like NOOOOOO!! Don't melt a skull then realised it must have been one of the ones that didn't turn out great. Well it now looks like you got these perfect. Great job and keep them coming.

Thanks man 😁 it's been fun. Especially as they start looking nicer.

Looking good! I've been debating on what to melt next, my buffalo rounds are gone. lol. Keep it up.

Did you get the spot deal from monument and JM yet?

Not yet. I'm an instant gratification kinda guy and the LCS hooks me up. I'll have to check them out just in case.

Very cool! Now none of your generics are safe! Keep on pouring

🤣 this is true! Thanks Dixie I'm gonna keep at it 💀💀💀

The new skulls are pretty cool and I think the pour lines enhance the piece

Thanks JJ I appreciate it 😁☠️💀

Got some nice pour lines going. What better way to for silver to live as.

Thank you for your continued support of SteemSilverGold

You getting it bro. Nicely done. 👍🏻

Practice makes them prefect buddy. You will be a pro in no time

I am following you on your road to perfection. Just keep trying and learning. Every pour will be better than the previous one.
