This is another one I found in the generic bin a month ago while visiting my in laws, this is #4 of 6 I picked up that day. This will make quite a few I have gotten. I wonder If I have found 6 of these yet.

Tri-State Facts source

  • In 1973 Lorentz Opdahl started a small business extracting silver from X-ray and other film products (Tri-State) in Hawarden, Iowa. The business prospered. In 1976, Opdahl purchased a gas-fired smelting unit and moved it to his farm near Hudson, South Dakota.

  • In December 1980, much of the Tri-State business moved to Sioux Falls.

  • Tri-State experienced financial difficulties in 1981. It was suspected these difficulties stemmed from internal problems and a private investigator was hired. This investigation led to a 1982 confession by an employee that he had stolen silver from Tri-State.
