I agree. Those coins sound like a very good way to do CS. The only reason I do wire is because it is easier to form into convenient shapes, connect to, etc. Plus, I make many gallons of CS, not only for myself and family, but also for friends and others, so I do need some quantities of supplies.

Just "Get 'er Done!" A single coin will yield all you'll ever use. Canada has produced Silver MAPLE LEAF $5 coins since 1988. Each contains 1 troy ounce of pure 99.99% SILVER and has a $5 face value. Easy to find, and the purest silver coin in the world.
