    SilverStorm reacted to daca in Fabulous Coin - Ancient Greek Gold Stater Philip II of Macedon   
    Beneath the chariot and horse is the legend ΦΙΛΙΠΠΟΥ (“Philippou”) in Greek letters. Immediately under the feet of the horses is a ritual tripod, in which offerings to the gods were often deposited and burnt. The tripod serves as a mint mark of sorts, identifiable with issues from Amphipolis, a city in Macedon, and Kolophon, a city in Ionia (now Western Turkey). This piece is most likely from Kolophon, as the Amphipolitan type features a thinner depiction of Apollo, an exergue line on the reverse and shows only one wheel on the biga.

    SilverStorm got a reaction from Fishface220 in Gold, What have you got most of?   
    The gold that you should stack should be the coin (or bar) that is most popular in your country.   As a Canadian, I stack gold maple leaf.  An American would stack the American gold eagle or the Buffalo.  And for you Brits over there, the Sovereign and/or Britannia.  The reason you want to stack popular gold coins in your home country is because it will be easier for you to liquidate for a higher price when you need to convert gold to fiat.   But having said that, stacking the major gold bullion from Canada, USA, UK, Australia, Austria, South Africa...you can't really go wrong as they all have international appeal.  
    IMHO...if money is a factor, save up for the 1/10 oz size.  Buy on a regular basis to take advantage of dollar cost averaging.   You can never time the market (price) perfectly, so don't worry about price fluctuations.  If you are consistent in your buying, the average cost will correct itself in the long run.  What's important is to define your gold stacking goal and stick with it for the long run.  Your future self will thank you.  My 2 cents.

    Perhaps you may be thinking of Silver Gold Bull, a Canadian online bullion dealer.  Link: Buy Silver & Gold Bullion Online | Silver Gold Bull Canada
    The fake online bullion dealer that OP posted is probably using their naming familiarity to trick noobs to buy from them.

    Wouldn’t touch this outfit with a barge pole.  The website is full or red flags.
    - Why is a business trading from a .org domain
    - Why are they selling good way under spot
    - Why have they harvested random images of gold coins from the web
    - Why do their links not work to key things like sending an email
    - Payment is by cheque or Bitcoin…
    - They claim to be US based but the only contact number I can see on their site is in….Norway

    That’s a very good point. It probably was a lie that got out of hand.
    The coin that really stands out for me as ‘hypocrite’ and I know many people love it, but it’s the 1oz gold USA Buffallo.
    It depicts a Native American surrounded by the words ‘liberty’. 😬
    It’s a beautiful design, well designed and executed, but the word ‘liberty’.
    It’s a big insult to Native Americans, liberty is the last thing they got.
    Awkward or what.

    I saw this on YouTube several days ago, and I thought it was interesting how this criminal had the audacity and devilish ingenuity to pull this off.   In a nutshell, the AGE was cored out and replaced with tungsten.  So the outsides is genuine, but the inside is not.  So a surface test will NOT pick up this fake.  This takes a lot of skill (IMHO) to pull it off.   See the YouTube video below for details.

    SilverStorm reacted to Stuntman in How many ounces is a good stack?   
    Another angle to look at regarding silver is quality versus quantity.  I 'only' have about 110 oz of physical silver bullion, but every single item of silver bullion that I own gives me a lot of pleasure.  So for me, the stack is more of a collection, even though every item is bullion.  I hope that I don't need to sell any of it, but if I do, it's not going to change my life either way.
    I do have a decent chunk of money invested in a silver ETF though, which is a paper stack.  I know some people have different opinions regarding ETFs, but for me, this is how I will time my silver purchases and sales.  It's just an asset to be turned into cash when the price is high.

    I am currently behind schedule, the cost of every day living and damn income taxes has cut into my stacking ability.  Hopefully I can double up somewhere and get to my stacking goals by end of the year.
