Nice, hey I tried the other day to melt junk silver with a torch, but couldn't heated up enough and when I pour it into the ingots it keep doing mountain and it didn't spread out nicely, but with 99.9 silver it didn't happen, do you have a idea what it could be, or do you recommend me to buy what you are using?

Put a separate torch over the molds WHILE you pour it, and it will help with the blackness and the bars will come out a lot more even on the top (in the mold) takes a little practice but it’s worth it. Try it and see.

​​​@@rustybritches6747 Hard to sell to individuals. Even home refined 999 silver bars are hard to sell unless you have a following. Most do this for easy storage and most refiners pay less if at all for scrap jewlery but melt it into a bar they can weigh and assay, and they will buy it that way. Melting the coins was just stupid, they have a known weight and content, easy to sell and usually have a premium.

Can I use this process to extract coins with 50% silver?

Stupid question, but how much more difficult is it to refine rather than just melt? Like how much more cost involved to get it to 0.99 silver?

There’s a channel called sreetips that you can watch too answer that.

Would coin dip clean them up ? A did if nitric acid, little muriatic acid & distilled water solution and a quick dip a rinse and polish cloth might work better than machine buffering. Can you separate the copper from silver to bring the purity up to at least .99 fine or even ..93 fine ??

Yeah the guy below me said it right, the metal is cooling to quickly try adding heat as you pour and into the mound when it’s poured to relax the metal in its new form

Nice video. I'm not what the purity of the silver was, but I would bet it wasn't over 85%. Lower purity of silver, can make the bars come out black. Your silver may have been hot enough when you took it out of the crucible, but you need to pour about 3 times faster than you did. The silver was hardening in seconds, because the temperature was too low. But still a good video!!
