I think they were released last month. May take a while to get here. I have family in the states, so I can get them but I'm not interested if they are 999. I am hoping they mint the same as the originals.

What area in the UK are you from? If you want to start collecting, try going to a coin shop and see what they have. Was talking to one owner today and he is really struggling after all the lockdowns. I picked up a few pieces, the price was pretty much the same as most of your online retailers.

Hi Does anyone know if they will be releasing the 2021 Morgan dollar in .900 version? I can only find information on 999 version. Cheers

Welcome bud 😁

Welcome 😁

Hello voy and welcome. All depends on budget and why you want to do it? There seems to be many different ways to achieve the same thing.

I'm currently visiting the isle of wight, anyone got any tips on coin or antique shops?

In reflection of my post last night, I think my views may not help a new starter as I am coming from the corner of someone that already has their goal in physical silver. Many people stack (accumulate) for all sorts of different reasons and it may help for you to decide why you are doing it and what is your goal. Please try not to be lead by faceless individuals when investing quiet a hefty budget. I personally have stopped buying silver as in comparison it is the most expensive it has been since starting. You may not have that option, I have also just started getting in to gold (to try and add a little balance). I currently have about 15 sovereigns so I am no expert. So when I say sovereign's, it's just where I am and the market is at the moment. Cheers

I have kind of given up on physical silver. Mainly thanks to the hundreds of YouTube vids and the mob culture of wall Street silver. I have a revolute account which has a commodity section. I can buy paper silver there, there is no vat or premium's and I just pay 1.5% over spot. I am using this to keep my toe in the silver market and can cash up in seconds to buy physical gold. I do still like to stack physical but i don't find it a must have anymore (I've never been one to follow a crowd). So it's definitely sovereigns for me.

There is a member called @Paul who does a beginner stack deal with delivery included. Flick through a few pages on the sale section. It's still listed and to my understanding very trusted. I think you don't need paid membership for that one.

What are of the UK are you? I use a couple of places

I gave him a like for you, the chances of me paying triple my mortgage is a pipe dream. Probably the reason I hunt around for pieces of silver to try and feel like I'm winning. 😁😁 Not all about the money.

Good find 👍

Sorry was a answer to someone else's point. There is no problem with selling large sizes it's when you do it's best to be attractive to as many people as possible. Did you see John wick? I know it's a film but bare with me. His gold stash, if it was three or four big bars it would be worth the same amount. But when the cleaners come, hotels and the armoury the three or four big lumps would be useless. It was better to pay in multiples of small amounts. If you want to raise £200 in cash then just sell multiples of the same coin, rather than hacksawing a lump to pieces. That's what silver storm means by liquidity (I think). Attractive to the buyer, easy for the seller. Large lumps do sell as well, of course they do but your target audience may be smaller. You will notice this in the forum that everyone has different view points. Learn from them and create your own path.

I was having the exact same conversation with a friend this morning. He is one of the very few people who know I do this. He was concerned about inflation and wanted to know if I thought it was a good idea to buy Krugerrands and 500g silver bars from the royal mint. Basically I showed him the hairy side and gave him a lesson in liquidity.

Tell that to delboy and rodders with their Victorian egg timer. Seriously I ended up doing it anyway mainly for insurance purposes. It took me ages routing through old receipts. I think if you put so much time and effort into something it's not much of a extra step to keep a record.

Good point

It's a car boot sale. Everyone is trying to max out there luck at someone else's expense.

Hello and welcome

Post a wanted add in the for sale section and state what you are willing to pay. Also go to the welcome new members section at the bottom of the home page and introduce yourself. Hope this helps

Read through the "see a deal post it here" pages on here. That has most of the big names on there.

Like I said it's something I don't do here but others do. It's something to do with not trying to predict the highs and lows of the market and averaging it out throughout the year. Good luck

Yes regardless of premium, a lot of investors do it in here, it's not for me. Maybe someone else would be able to explain it better.

Precious metals and using your full budget every month regardless of the spot. It averages out the spot cost. There are many different reasons people are into silver. Based on your budget and the fact you would like to have a future investment that is the way a majority would go. I am more of a treasure hunter. Really like the old stuff, it generally trades at spot. This takes a lot of time and effort and is more of a hobby for someone on a low budget. I would think to yourself, how am I going to sell this in the future?, with Brits it's one sale, you can decide how many coins go in to that sale. There is generally no questions and a is quick and easy. £600 per month is a fair size for a newbie so you will accumulate a lot of weight quickly.
