Very nice, which mint makes them? Native Cat's in the wild are very cool, but can't stand domestic cats. 50c is the lowest face value I've ever seen on a 1 oz

Agreed on both counts. Well done @PapaLazarou !

This is my first Britannia Silver coin. I'd like to get more of these. A 1/10th Oz Maple Gold Coin 2x 1g Maple Coins which I embarrassingly didn't notice were upside down, they are that bloody small !

Some of my recent purchases 2021 Perth mint 1 OZ Quoka's (my favorite of all these, followed by Eagles, fllowed by Kooks) 1Kg Siltech 9999 Bar Perth Mint Kookaburra 1 OZ 2009 Silver Eagles

Thank you mate for the reply. I figured most of this but good to know if this happens again how to proceed. Thanks again for the wonderful forum. Cheers

Me either, it's a wealth preservation and inflation hedge scheme, and a good way to save and collect which is a hobby a way to save and have fun, and one day you will be happy you did.

I agree, but I don't disbelieve the stackers can't make things difficult for the manipulators. But yeah don't bank on this market breaking out unless the banksters want it to. But eventually they will have to let it go and it can get sky high then. I just keep buying when I can and take advantage of the dips, for example I'm trying to buy some Philharmonikers today, as I have none. That and Britanias are the main coins I don't have.

I've had trouble finding the right place to post this so I figured to make a thread. @ChrisSilver I've received this message in my box this morning and while it looked innocent enough, I did not follow the direction thankfully but tried to PM Trashtank which came us as an error " @Trashtank can not receive messages" Somewhat suspicious but s till not seeing a glaring red flag, I moused over the senders profile and when I saw he has fat "0" posts I knew this is a scam. I just thought it's my responsibility to inform others

I came across this, posting for entertainment purposes, make of it what you will. Interesting how the PM stamp is in middle of bar so each half has the makers mark, less arguments if splitting it with a mate ! This is a bit crazy LOL

Exactly, just keep buying it's a waiting game, and one day you'll be real glad you did. Probably real soon when all hell breaks loose in every market, but when is not the most important thing, main thing is you have it and enough to see you through.

Yep but a significant one as it broke yearly lows

I have been buying, and the price keeps dropping, looking for the news on why this is happening. This dude says Elon the muskrat plans to mine space but could just be a dump and pump after his increased acquisition??? I don't know ? Can anyone confirm the latest market factors in their opinion or give links ?

I'll store it free !!! I have to agree with this, but I understand there are factors that make having in ones posession difficult.

Increased premiums for in stock items when stock is scarce is not unreasonable IMO however it depends how much. In any case I understand that this is easily determined by what the buyers are comfortable to pay, the competition will be doing the same and the buyers will side with the better price in that particular local market, ofcourse customer service and ease of business make a difference. I happily pay $1 or more extra per oz to get better service, less wait time with a dealer v's one with poor record of customer service. (when you have to enquire if they can update an invoice paid after 2 weeks etc) The secondary market in Silver has been almost non existent anywhere for the last year or duration of Covid. However some US dealers are paying over spot to get secondary into their inventory. I think it's boom time for all G&S dealers, the ones I've used in Au seem to have done exceptionally well over the last 10+ years no matter what the market was doing, some have done well with cryptos too even if they have the highest premiums anywhere. The market is short of product, and I hear rumor that mines and even dealers are holding stock back, which is good and bad I guess, bad if you are buying good if your bought and holding. I've been lucky to get some Eagles of older years at a very good price s/h last week. Dealers selling new eagles $16 ea more than I paid. (Probably 10 pounds in your money)
