I sent an old silver coin to @Sassafras¥ for this reason, he may have had some luck, Ive never tried, im finding figures saying you want at least 30 ppm, but some folks claim luck using straight 240 ppm out of the bottle. Also reading that tds meters dont acurately measure the ppm of silver though

I use distilled water. Normally about 500ml. I have bought silver wire so cannot comment on silver coins but there is no reason it shouldn't work. I also do it in the dark (normally in a cardboard box). I use 3 x 9v batteries in a pyramid configuration. There's a good thread on RIU if you want to get really anal about it. I have never used a meter to measure the CS produced.

Yup.. it worked bro. 90% silver is what the coin tested in at. So that's all you really need. Just took my 9 volt batteries I hooked together and let it sit overnight. Easy peasy (:

Yup. That's exactly how I made mine. Hook them together in a pyramid, 3 is all you need. Then connect your wires. Connect the red to positive & black to negative on the 9 volts. Then attach the other ends to your coin, or silver wire. Suspend in distilled water. 20170620_145722.jpg

There was a good editorial in yesterdays Washington Times that shows how states are treating cannabis as a cash cow.

The voters of Massachutes recently approved legal mj with a 12% tax rate. The legislature is trying to raise it to what they say is 28%, but actually is 21.75% from wholeseller to retailer and another 28% when purchased from the retailer. The tax rate in other states are Oregon 17%, Alaska 25%, Washington 37% and Colorado with 39%. All these higher taxes do is to re-enforce the back market....I don't hear of the cartels paying taxes.

As in most things, common sense has left the room.

Same old, same old on both sides of the border. Up here in Canada the provinces are just starting to whine about their cuts. The feds have stated they want to keep the prices to $8-$9/g retail to kill the BM - lol The BM here has been in that range at retail for years and dropped further over the last couple of years with legalization on the horizon. All they're going to do is feed the BM more with a slight price adjustment if the provincial and municipal greed bags keep putting their hands out for tax money. I don't sell but I wouldn't be concerned about it if I did, business should pick up for those folks if anything.
