    I got a mobile phone, that has silver in it.

    Nothing else silver related, silver is not just for Christmas, I buy it all year round, it isn't sufficiently novel to receive any as a gift!

    Well I got a silver 10 francs coin 1965 with Hercules on it, a 1992 1/20 oz Libertad, a 1909 Barber quarter, a 1964 1000 yen coin and 5 RCM Maple leaves. None were presents really, just stuff I ordered right before the holiday but close enough.

    I got these from my very good SSers friend uuuuuuuuuuuum for Christmas :)

    # 1 x Florin.
    # 1 x Shilling.
    # 1 x sixpence.
    # 1 x threepence

    and all nice and shiny.

    Plus 1 x 100 yr commemorative uncirculated $2.00 coin which is already in a spare airtight.

    My first post Silver without using my Teknetics Delta 4000 with my free ($160.00) 5" DD NEL coil from the Ukraine :D

    Happy Christmas day everyone.

    CGS :)

    I got a 10 oz Lunar colored horse and a 1/10 oz AU gold coin, and an xbox one which while it isn't precious metals is bloody awesome.

    Apparently more sold than purchased.
    With the increased Comex futures price share preventing a part of the price drop from happening.
    But figures 'round show it. :D

    middle figure is total net amount (all longs + all shorts) of 5000 ounces positions
    16/12/2014 33997 $15.87
    09/12/2014 35357 $17.12
    02/12/2014 26576 $16.31
    25/11/2014 22043 $16.56

    11/11/2014 17612 $15.66
    04/11/2014 12408 $15.77

    The biggest (330 Moz, 1/3 of worlds annual, now) physically backed silver ETF IShares:

    2014/11/21 349,296,169.60 $16.3

    2014/12/01 350,158,280.00 $15.73 PEAK X

    2014/12/11 342,350,201.70 $16.98
    2014/12/12 341,009,164.10 $17.07
    2014/12/17 338,997,763.10 $15.95
    2014/12/19 338,135,759.30 $15.86
    2014/12/23 332,293,606.30 $15.71
    2014/12/24 330,569,731.90 $15.77

    Selling 'like lemmings again that 30 Moz - sized volatile part of it. :D
    So I decided to skip Christmas purchased, and hold the fiat ammo for a next opportunity, as it looks like, 33997 - 12408 = 21589 x 5000 per hedge contract = 108 Moz sales not reflected in the price (yet). Since a price dollar seems to correspond to a 70 Moz supply/demand change, that's $1.5 down so $14 looks like a reasonable target to reoccur.

    In gold, the biggest stock backed ETF SPDRs dropped for the first time since the now 3 years lasting bear market, under 23 Moz http://www.spdrgoldshares.com/
    It has been over 40 Moz in 2011 (january and august).
    So they still have some left to dump.
    Tho the biggest ones (institutionals) mostly got out. They seem to be smarter. SPDR gold had in 2011 an Institutionals share of 50%.

    Wherever I feel like

    I do concur :D Took me 5 hours to even get the game started because I could not get my character looking right and had to start over so many times.

    So far no silver for me, if I got any I would be buying it myself. I think this is the first year I'll be getting a christmas bonus and you know where that is going!
