    10 and 20 oz bars if they have any.
    Kooks if not
    Tell him to ask if they have anything in the buy back draw, sometimes you get lucky with a lunar or two.
    Don't think 2012 kooks are out yet though.

    Lowest premium silver is a 100oz cast bar.
    Why you guys gotta think so small?

    If silver is at $120, it's because people ARE buying at that price. You won't have trouble selling silver at spot price, regardless of the quantity.

    You need to stop thinking that "big silver will be too hard to offload".
    If the SHTF, you're not going to be selling to other stackers on this board.
    You're going to be selling to a panic-stricken public that will buy gold and silver at any price to protect their wealth.
    Because you can't imagine this, you will keep on assuming that a big bar will be too hard to sell because you're comparing it to current conditions.
    This is what I call a form of normalcy bias.

    Large bars easier to counterfeit, large bars harder to store, large bars harder to carry, large bars harder to trade... I know what I prefer.

    Fiat currency?
    Electronic credit money?
    That's lightest of all.

    Changing the subject to shunned fiat currency is not a counter-argument.
