SAN ANGELO, TX— San Angelo LIVE! and Cano’s Diamonds & Coins have teamed up for a contest that will run the entire summer of 2024. It is called the “LIVE! Summertime Search for Silver Scavenger Hunt brought to you by Cano’s Diamonds & Coins."
The contest will award three prizes of a 20-pack of 99.999% pure silver U.S. Mint Silver Eagle Coins! But to win, you'll have to find out where we hid the tube of silver.
Each month, a Silver Eagle coin container will be hidden somewhere in San Angelo, and each day, in our articles, the LIVE! Daily News, and on our mobile app, or all three, will have clues until the silver treasure is found.
The container will only be on public land and in plain sight. So, no jumping homeowner’s fences, breaking into yards, diving into the Concho River or Lake Nasworthy, or trespassing as you will be publicly ridiculed and shamed on San Angelo LIVE!
It will not be buried, submerged, or under boulders, stumps, or other outdoor items. There will be no need for ladders for swimming suits as the container will be hidden from the ground level to eye level.
The coin container also will not be anywhere dangerous like in the middle of the road or hanging from a bridge and it will be accessible to anyone, young and old.
San Angelo LIVE! is also not responsible if you do something dumb and get hurt. Again, the container will not be anywhere dangerous and there is no need to bring shovels or ladders. It will be from ground level up and will have nothing on top of it. So, there is no need to flip rocks and get bit by a snake.
Use your brain.
Also, we will not be exactly placing a container of 20 Silver Eagle Coins somewhere in the city— for security. But, inside the hidden coin container will be a unique card with a unique number and our phone number. You’ll find the container or tube, call the number, and we will trade it for 20 U.S. Mint Silver Eagles.
Remember, these are silver coins, not cash, so the price of silver can increase! Indeed, silver has increased in value from around $22 per ounce to over $32 per ounce this year to date.
Starting Monday, June 3, 2024, clues will be dropped daily on the LIVE! Daily News Show and on San Angelo LIVE!’s website about the location of the silver container.
Put down the Chutes and Ladders and bring your Chess board.
It’s up to you to find the clues and put two and two together to find the silver coins.
Also, we are running the Summertime Search for Silver Scavenger Hunt all summer long, so you’ll have three months to find the shine. And there's more. if no one finds the coins in June, the spot where they were at will no longer be valid so June’s coins will roll over into July. That means if no one finds the container in June, there will be 40 silver coins for the prize in July. If no one finds the coins in July either, the prize increases to 60 Silver Eagles in August. For valuation purposes, as of May 31, each Silver Eagle coin is worth a tad over $40 per coin.
Remember, the tube or container will be on public land, not private, so no trespassing or mischief. No climbing, swimming, or digging as the container will be in plain sight and easy to get. It will be inside the San Angelo city limits so there will no travel time involved.
