    Just after peoples options, besides stacking premium coins and silver bars, what would be the best logical step to hoard out of pre, post decimal silver and/or round 50s ?

    Cheers, HAPPY STACKING :)

    I like to hoard all pre

    I like my silver to be a minimum of 80%

    So pre decimal being 92.5% silver, how/what is the best way to account to if you are getting a good deal in regards to pre decimal silver coins as threepence, sixpence, florins, shillings, etc all at different weights and each will add up to 1oz of silver with specific quantities of coins, etc?

    Or would be say easier to still to the larger coins instead of a mixture ?

    Cheers, HAPPY STACKING :)

    Round 50s would make it alot easier to keep track off as its the same weight for every coin unlike pre decimal silver coins, etc ?

    Lol no...what is a hoarding stack...1,000 coins, 5,000 coins, 10,000+ coins lol...

    Cheers, HAPPY STACKING :)

    I like to keep a variety of each coin

    I know the weight of each coin off by heart it's easy 1.41 for a threepence times by 2 for sixpence times that by 2 for shilling and so on

    You'll be hard pressed getting them for spot but in saying that shouldn't be much over spot

    With crowns being the exception

    Crowns range from $35 to $50 depending on grade with the 1938 crowns from $150-$300 depending on grade

    And round 50's $8-$8.50

    I sometimes pay $10 for real high grade found 50's

    A good way of looking at how to keep track of, etc "I know the weight of each coin off by heart it's easy 1.41 for a threepence times by 2 for sixpence times that by 2 for shilling and so on"

    If I lived in Australia, round fifties for sure. Those coins are sick... I have a few but want more. Shipping is ridiculous though at about 1 AUD per coin!
