Make new friends, but keep the old: one is silver and the other's a TRIVIA QUIZ!

Today's trivia quiz is brought to you by the Silver Dollar. I remember having one as a kid and thinking it was so cool. It was way cooler than that stupid SacawacaDollar!

So, we all know about the gold rush in Alaska, but what state boasts the largest silver nugget ever found in the US? Bonus points if you can guess its weight.

Good luck! :)

Not a bad guess, but it's actually Colorado! It was a whopping 1840 pounds and was found in 1894. Kinda makes you wonder why Nevada is the Silver State!
