Each coin in an "air-tite" and each stack of 20 in a air tite tube (all off ebay). The whole lot in a hidden house safe I don't think common criminals would ever find.

Not buying it. My accounts are FDIC insured. That means if anything happens to them, the US Govt will set the account right. Pipe dream for a massive failure, yes BUT that means the govt must say (in the Guass situation) on Monday morning that not only was all my money stolen, but they are not...

Semi off topic, but 20 grand is not a high goal for Kickstarter. This is the most funded one I know: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/597507018/pebble-e-paper-watch-for-iphone-and-android?ref=search And Kickstarter may have possible broken the way video games are made...

I'm in for one. Only $45 if you're in the US, so high, but I'm a fan and a big supporter of Kickstarter.

I look at the chart of nation's holdings and all I see is that if I can get a 1/2 ton of gold I can be number 98 on the list. Hey, it's good to have goals.

I have only done online ordering so far. Westminster Mint has the best prices I've found (send them a check or MO) for generic silver rounds: http://www.coin-rare.com/silver-bullion-round-morgan-dollar-design.aspx (when I ordered 10 coins from them and they came in a 20 coin square tube, so...

Every couple of days it seems to have that dip below $27US and then stays just above it. I got lucky and timed the last one (saves me shipping cost). When the price is this "low" (relative term) I indulge in silver eagles, otherwise, I just buy normal silver rounds or bars for the cheapest...

I'm ready to pull the trigger today, I just want it to drop a bit lower so I can "save" the shipping charges :)

US corporate earnings reports for Q2 are due later this week, and they are all going to be bad. People will get out of shares and into PMs. Prices will go up to $37/oz and not look back until after the elections. If Obama wins, crash back to $26 because the general populace are idiots and think...

Hey Deano3! One of the things that got me into silver was that I found gold (at levels I can afford) had just too much of a mark up. At a place I buy from (I'd share but I don't know if that's frowned on or not) they have PAMP 1g, 2.5g and 5g bars. All in my comfort level of purchaseability...

Hey Dean! I'm new too. I'm stacking for long term (possibly for my baby's college fund) so I'm looking at somewhere between 10-20 years. I personally don't think the silver will help much in a literal global meltdown, but we'll see :) I compared silver to gold and personally I like silver...

So I went and bought a small safe for my small stack. I was really excited about it, so I did the natural thing. I went and grabbed a few more ounces! You know, I like buying on the weekends, the price doesn't move around. I bought last week and was real proud of myself for paying attention and...

So I've been looking into precious metal IRAs myself and honestly, I can't see the plus in it. Assuming a Roth IRA where my money has already been taxed, I can put up to $5000 a year and then choose investment plans, OR I can use that money to buy precious metals and pay them to store it for...

OK, reality check for me here :) When you guys say SHTF, how bad are you talking? Because if the clerk at the store won't take my paper monopoly money for goods and services, what makes you think he'll take a shiny "unknown" coin for actual food? He won't. Now, if you just mean that when the...

Errol 43, thank you! He got 1, 2011 Silver Eagle for being born (Daddy got 10) and (will get) 2, 2012 Silver Eagles for his birthday. I play to keep that up, years old +1 of the current year until he goes to college. If silver hits $1000 an ounce by then, I should be able to afford a trade...

Hey all! Joel from the USA here (please be gentle) and I'm new to Silver Stackers and stacking in general. I found silver last year when I accidentally stumbled across the Discover Australia 2011 Dreaming Great White Shark. Just a stunning coin and I was not (and am not) a coin collector, so I...
