Hi Dean, Thanks for your concern. The coins I used were the U.S. minted "Walking Liberty" 1 oz. fine silver coins. My understanding is that this is a pure silver (.999) coin, but I was unable to verify that with the dealer. He didn't really understand my question, nor could I understand his answer very well. (He had a very thick accent). If you or anyone else knows anything about these coins, especially if they're not pure .999 silver, please let me know.
They cost me $8.50 apiece, which I understand would be about right for a .999 pure 1 oz. silver coin.
