Wow, you got a lot of charms. I see general charms in gift shops, but don't often see sterling silver ones. Where do you normally find them?

They are getting a lot harder to find than they used to be. This trip I got lucky and found a ton. Some of these I got in the gift shop of a particular sight or attraction. Some are from jewelry stores in more touristy areas. On Cape Cod I randomly found a silver shop that was also a supplier of charms to locations across the US. It is always a hunt. The jewelry stores over charge, but I always pay if I find something I really like. If only they charged the spot price! 😄
If they charged spot, you could make a killing. Have you thought about buying a bunch of sterling silver silverware and then melting it and making your own charms? You could buy the mold and then pour it yourself.
Nah... that sounds like a lot of effort. 😄 I do have sterling silverware but we eat with it. ☺️
I got some sterling silverware myself. I found it at the coin store for spot price. Can't beat that. Unfortunately, I forgot how many grams they were and I don't have a small scale, so I can't include them in my total ounces right now. Ha ha. Also, while they're fun to get, it means that's money that's not going to rounds, bars, and coins. Decisions, decisions.
