    1 gram panda

    I asked this question in a handful of forums in the us.Why buy a 1gm panda for almost a 100% premium?The coin has a melt value of about $39.00.The answer I got about the 2016 coin was that this is the first year of issue.The 2017 went on presale from many dealers @$54us.I bought 2 for the heck...

    Why is the 10 ounce Lunar Monkey 2016 so scarce

    completely agree with haackma.The 10 oz monkey was in and out of stock with one us dealer.when they had it the price was about $225,so about $22.50/oz when silver was $16 or so/oz.Seeing it in stock then out in a day or so,I finally bought one when it was available.I checked with 7 major dealers...

    OH NO ! Getting obsessed with silver ahhhhhh

    You have to face it,silver is extremely addictive.Most of us start out just looking to pick up a few ozs and stop there,but there is no stopping once you see it in your hand.Its a cruel mistress,who will shoot up a few dollars when you buy an oz or two,but will also drop like a rock when you put...

    My First Silver Purchase

    congrats on starting a nice stack of silver.The bottom line is you need to be comfortable on how you store your stack.I prefer tp stack my ASEs and CMLs in the mint tubes available almost everywhere.I bought 100 h39 capsules,and 100 h40 caps a few years ago and still have most of them.Fat freddy...

    Where to buy Original Perth Mint capsules?

    Thanks for the imput guys.I bought a few lunars with cracked cases(didnt know they were cracked at the time) and was looking to replace them.My only other alternative is to buy other gold coins online ie: the 1/10 oz australian american memorial which has a capsule the same size as the SI and...

    1/10 or 1/4 oz gold from Perth

    I have also observed that the 1/10 oz gold lunars seem to do well,compared to the other sizes.I dont want to spend $190. for more snake coins,so beginning with the horse I have been buying 5 or so 1/10 oz lunars,for about $140usd.I dont think that I will regret it.

    Where to buy Original Perth Mint capsules?

    sorry if its been asked and answered,but I also find myself needing capsules for 1/10 oz gold lunars both series I and series II.It appears that the only capsules I can find are direct fit ones where the outer dimensions are 32mm so it wont fit in my nice case.Google in the states doesnt have...

    just bought my first 10oz bar

    A good place to start might be the 10 oz lunar coins.Lower mintages,10 ozs of ag,nice designs etc.However anything older than the dragon coin,will begin to get pricey.I also like the kook and koala 10 ozers.At present,I keep them in coffee cans...cleaned and aired out of course.

    Silver heading down. Sub US $20 back on the cards?

    up a dollar,down a dollar I dont care.At $20-$22 spot Im paying about $23-$24/ounce.If we stay at $19 or lower I increase the ozs I buy.At this point I'm buying a tube or so a month.When the price dips I push it to 28 or 30 ozs.This is for name brand coins ie:SAEs,CMLs,britannias etc.If I start...

    My impact on the silver spot price

    Silver does seem to go in the opposite direction when we make a big buy or sell.So if you like silver just buy and hold on.The present silver price condition seems to be going sideways at the moment,but the pendulum swings from one side to the other.More important is to select an exit...

    New to the Forum!

    Welcome RC129.I'm from virginia,so its good to see another yank here.lol.Anyway all of the major us dealers do cherry pick all the bags of coins,so there is little chance that you will discover a valuable coin in the bag.But its ok because you are buying silver,not numis coins when you buy...

    Could silver fall below 15 $? What do you think?

    To answer the question posed...I dont see silver going below $15/oz.At the moment,I am enjoying myself by buying pandas,CMLs,ASEs,elephants,libertads,ect at very attractive prices.If silver stays in a range of $15-$20 I will continue to buy rolls by the handful.If the price stays stagnant for a...
