    As per the title, it looks like it can be stacked like the 10oz but can anyone else confirm?
    What's it like 10 high? I'm worried its a much smaller bar and wont stack well (eg. wobbly!!)

    They come in sheets which I fold over and then rubber band. Kind of a way of 'stacking' them I suppose.
    I do the same with ones out of the packaging too, rubber band a load of them together and it works well.

    I would leave them in the sheet, way more desirable when you flick on the upside.

    i cut them out of the plastic, then stack 100 of whatever i have together, then vacuum seal them using a food vacuum sealer machine, when i get around to it, ill post pics.

    I'm one of the many who've wrestled with the 1oz silver bar storage problem. The two best ideas I've seen are:

    1. Wrap piles of 10 1oz bars in "Parafilm" and store the little wrapped bundles in one of those cardboard storage boxes made to take 2"x2" stapled holders. Parafilm is paraffin-infused, so it's non-reactive. The Parafilm is costly, but it goes a LONG way and the boxes are inexpensive and fit like a glove. Got this one from a friend. It's an inexpensive, effective and space saving way to store 1oz silver bars.

    2. If you'd like something more modular, the CoinSafe tube company just started selling square storage tubes that take 20 1oz silver bars. Not cheap, but high-class.

    I would be careful about using rubber band. I have seen a case where the silver gets badly stained, suspected to be PVC damage, after being tied with rubber band for long period of time. It happened even through the plastic sheet that the silver bar comes in.

    I did think that so always put them around the sheet tear lines inbetween the coins ;)
