I went to the scrap yard today to get rid of cans. I had to go behind the desk to call someone in. I noticed a scrap price chart there. They are paying 43 cents a pound for WW's. They are also paying 48 cents for other lead. I was looking around and found a 55 gallon drum of lead, most looks like monotype. I have more than 700 pounds of it at home, but I alway could use more. I have an 1948 delivery van that was converted to a motor home that I want to get rid of. Now I am going to get back there after deer season and try a trade. What is the going price of monotype now?
Thank you for your help ahead of time.

You will get scrap lead price for type metals at the scrap yard.
You should be able to get about $1.00 per pound here.
