                Independent Auditor's Report


To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of
Lexington Silver Fund, Inc.:

In  planning  and  performing  our  audit  of  the  financial
statements  of  Lexington  Silver Fund,  Inc.  (formerly  the
Lexington  Strategic Silver Fund, Inc.) for  the  year  ended
December  31,  1999,  we  considered  its  internal  control,
including control activities for safeguarding securities,  in
order to determine our auditing procedures for the purpose of
expressing  our  opinion on the financial statements  and  to
comply  with the requirements of Form N-SAR, not  to  provide
assurance on internal control.

The  management of Lexington Silver Fund, Inc. is responsible
for  establishing  and  maintaining  internal  control.    In
fulfilling  this responsibility, estimates and  judgments  by
management  are required to assess the expected benefits  and
related  costs  of  controls.  Generally, controls  that  are
relevant  to  an audit pertain to the entity's  objective  of
preparing financial statements for external purposes that are
fairly   presented  in  conformity  with  generally  accepted
accounting   principles.    Those   controls   include    the
safeguarding of assets against unauthorized acquisition, use,
or disposition.

Because of inherent limitations in internal control, error or
fraud may occur and not be detected.  Also, projection of any
evaluation  of internal control to future periods is  subject
to  the risk that it may become inadequate because of changes
in  conditions  or that the effectiveness of the  design  and
operation may deteriorate.

Our  consideration of internal control would not  necessarily
disclose  all  matters  in internal  control  that  might  be
material  weaknesses  under  standards  established  by   the
American  Institute  of  Certified  Public  Accountants.    A
material  weakness  is a condition in  which  the  design  or
operation  of one or more of the internal control  components
does  not  reduce  to a relatively low level  the  risk  that
misstatements caused by error or fraud in amounts that  would
be  material  in  relation to the financial statements  being
audited may occur and not be detected within a timely  period
by  employees  in  the  normal  course  of  performing  their
assigned  functions.  However, we noted no matters  involving
internal  control and its operation, including  controls  for
safeguarding  securities, that we  consider  to  be  material
weaknesses as defined above as of December 31, 1999.

This report is intended solely for the information and use of
management, the Board of Directors of Lexington Silver  Fund,
Inc.,  and the Securities and Exchange Commission and is  not
intended  to be and should not be used by anyone  other  than
these specified parties.
