    I had considered converting the duplicates to some other silver form that is both liquid and compact. Am open to suggestions.

    hahaha... did I say Guardian? I meant Custodian.... just up the road.

    For those who don't know me, I look exactly like this when I am doing silver stuff:

    ^^^ LOL, I know how that guy feels, but you have too try to look like you're casually strolling without a bag full of kilos.

    Le pic updated...

    The Guardian Vaults large box isn't much bigger than the medium unfortunately. According to the website it is 4cm higher and that's it:

    (cm) Sydney
    Width: 27
    Height: 12
    Length: 56

    The Bullion Safe option would be very nice but I bet they are extremely expensive.

    Allot. The last few months of low prices have blown out my silver budget. I didn't exactly back up the truck, but I did jump on almost every opportunity. It felt like a good time to be a stacker. We shall see however.

    That actually makes sense, then you can just sit them out in your shed.

    Just a smidgen over $2k when I signed up few years ago so not too bad for what you get. You could get away with the XL for all those kilos, $600/ye. Pro tip- get a bottom shelf so you can easily slide it onto the trolley

    I use a square 1/2 dollar tube for my fifties, holds twenty and stacks easily in taped blocks of six. Why not try something similar?

    Not sure I can compress a kilo coin down to the size that would fit... but... but...

    Maybe I can find someone who'll be willing to do a swap of fifties for some kilo coins. Any idea how many fifties would be a suitable swap for a Kook or Koala kilo coin?

    Think inside the box SilverPete! Get a square tube that takes 20, kilo coins.

    Meanwhile I'll give you 60 fifties per kilo.

    Let me just say, I picked the absolute worst day to be trudging through the Sydney CBD with a large, obviously heavy, black backpack :(

    I'll have to lock my stuff in the office here.
