Some say that diamond is a girl best friend. In my case, I would replace diamond with silver. I like the color of silver. I liked and miss working with silver. I only worked with this metal when I had my first classes. I pick it up because I wasn't interested in gold jewelry. It was an alternative. With time, it grew on me. Handling this metal made me appreciate it.
Recently, I found the site of the Silver Institute (https://www.silverinstitute.org/site/). It seems to be a more formal site on silver. It made me a little bit more curious. I knew a few things like that the best silver worker were in Mexico. There is the whole area of silverware. It never interested me before and now, I am a bit curious about it. It is more curiosity than anything else: curiosity for the knowledge. I don't know if I would be good in silverware making, if that exist in an amateur level.
The idea of a research on silver made me remember kitco (http://www.kitco.com/). They sell silver, among other metal, if I remember correctly. They also have news and the prices for various metals. The article on silver, on wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silver) made me realize all the uses of silver. I knew it was a component for computer and silver could dissinfect wonds. For dissinfecting, I learned that a bit recently, like 2-3 years ago. At the time, I had a skin tag with a pedoncle under the armpit. I took an appointment with my doctor. She cut the pedoncle with scissors and put some silver product to dissinfect the cut she made. It didn't hurt. I only sensed a pinch when she cut the pedoncle and barely the slight burn for the dissinfecting part. So, I exit the doctor's office with a learning experience.
I don't own a silver coin, not yet. I might be interested in the pieces with the Looney Tunes: http://www.mint.ca/store/buy/silver_coins-cat120006. I am just not enough an expert on that area. I don't know if there is silver coins that I would really like. I may be a bit too much on the aesthetic side of things...
