    Lead Price per Pound???

    Wondering what lead is going for these days?
    I have a pile of large egg and bank sinkers from back in the day:
    4- 16 oz bank-4, 3- 12 oz bank, 1 -10 oz bank, 6 - 6-8 oz banks, probably ~6 or 8-10 oz eggs and ~6 2-4 oz eggs.
    7# of raw lead.

    Any ideas?
    Offers?

    Around 1.00 lb but if you could find someone wanting it in present form....maybe 2.00....I melted down all my offshore weights when I couldn't get the plates melted down....sometimes I see it cheaper then the 1.00........mine came to me for free (actually was getting paid) all 1,000lbs....not much more then 100 left, plus 40lb soft sheet...

    .missed counter weight on an xray machine before it went to scrap.....who knows how much weight would have been on it.....many plates

    We could work out something if you still have it during my stay....hard for me to pay
