I think Mike Maloneys Guide to Investing in Gold and Silver would be a good addition. $11.39 + shipping from Amazon. A great book for any beginner!
I started a friend off with a 10oz starter pack consisting of: 9 X 50 cent 1966 silver- 3oz 2 X 1/2 oz Tigers-1oz 1x 2oz Kooka- 2oz 2x 1oz Kooka (2010 and 2011)- 2oz 1x 1oz Rabbit 1x 1oz Tiger ___________ 10oz Mixed Show Bag. If I had a one once bar I would put that in just for variety.
Great Idea .... I've just come into some VINTAGE Perth Mint 10 oz bars. So I am going to offer 2 complete sets as outlined above to bona fide new members, for the price of $1000.00 (plus postage). First in First Served.... Ck.
Vintage Perth Mint 10oz bar? To newbies? (cries a little inside) You know you could save one of those for an Alchemy Challenge swap
Well I would be having two left .... and they are <deep breath> consecutively numbered </deep breath>
Better throw in a few tissues as well then... Captain K - perhaps you could post a pic of the contents of the *first ever* Silver Stackers Show Bag.
Well ... I need to get in some more crowns, and I was cleaned out of Sovereigns on Sunday (Thanks Colin) .... But I will take a photo before I send the first batch off.
I am a new member, these are not the Droids you're looking for, you don't need to see my identification, when can I pick up the Silver Goodies??
Yes, a most desireable and fitting inclusion. Please allow me to supply a few matches too. [imgz=http://forums.silverstackers.com/uploads/1062_burn.jpg][/imgz]
Thanks for that 'warm' offer Bunker, very kind of you to offer your assistance, especially when you obviously have your own little candle to keep burning! Thanks everyone for your excellent input so far into the Great Silver Stackers Show Bag Caper... So many excellent ideas! Keep them coming, then we will take a look and see what consensus emerges. Many of you have 'encouraged' others to start stacking. What did you recommend? Alternatively - what was YOUR FIRST real purchase - (up to say $1000). What did you get first - and why? What would YOU have LIKED to have bought as a STARTER STACK?
Just highlighting this starter pack suggestion offered by BeyondFiat in the "Australia & New Zealand" sales threads. And Captain Kangaroo has already sold two started based on Gold Pelican's recommendation.
Agreed. It was a fantastic idea. I'll certainly be putting some more together. Thinking about including a book (yes that one) in the packs.
