Investing In Silver

[Jestik]

My original goal was 100 oz. of silver. I guess my next goal should be another 100? 500? 1,000?

Work on getting $100 face value in 90% silver coins. Junk silver is fine. Mainly dimes & quarters maybe $20 in halves.

My only problem is that the silver content is not marked on the face of the coin, and is only a percentage of the weight (which is not on there either). However, I definitely wouldn't mind a roll of quarters and dimes.

I have 2 ASE's; one for each eye.

Dimes! If concerned with mix up, don't get Roose's. Mercs are my favorite.
Can anyone spare a dime? I have ONE Barber and it as slick as a newborns butt.
As far as collecting, I purchased the Franklin half dollar coin books for my kids and we are about half full. I know it will take years. Some Franklin's in decent condition will fetch a pretty penny.

It's common knowledge. Pre-1964 silver coins are 90% silver. This stuff is traded just as much as bullion silver. I've made more buying & selling this stuff then I have bullion.

it's common knowledge. Pre-1965 silver coins are 90% silver.

fify.

1965-1970 Kennedy halves are 40% as well.

try these, they are a 3D work of art. Elemetal just started making these last summer and the ship is already around $75. This one is about to go black since they don't have anymore. These are limited to 24,590 coins. I hate bullion rounds but this is the first series I've collected of this type in 40 years of coin collecting. Looks at the others too. This is the ground floor for this type of coin and they are quite impressive.

Very cool stuff.

For some reason I really like the 1oz bars more than I do the 1oz rounds, but the 1oz bars are more expensive!

Those are 2 oz rounds and it allows them to make them come out at you in 3D high releaf.
You need to see one, and right at $20 an ounce for a under 25k mintageis a great price point.
Silver goes up and you don't lose anything but it goes down and you still make money.
These will be like Pandas and very collectable at a price point that isn't too far off bullion.
ISO certified for IRAs so it's not a fly by night smelter that purity would be questioned and discounted.
