Cointreau

Just picked up my Schone kg bar from Arshi. I like it. It has plenty of character.

The silversqueeze Gofundme effort is doing okay. I put in roughly £10. Scottsdale mint put in $5K.
It's for billboards to be put up on American motorways saying buy silver basically to raise awareness.. They've raised about $80K so far.
And posters I guess,

I would like to get a tube of this year's kookaburras. The Perth mint is not churning out any coins at the moment apparently. 
Just seen 2016 kooks for ale for £57 at Bullion by post! But they're not in stock....
Edit: A normal price for the older kooks would be £25-30 I'm pretty sure.

I know it's a auction but it's not the kind of thing they usually sell, may be worth keeping a eye on for someone.

A kg silver Shone bar and  a 100g Betts bar from Arshimo. I'm just getting started...

Nice rare Peru 20 soles gold 

Stopped by my go to LCS today to buy some of the Mayflower 400th Anniversary gold and silver coins.  He knew I had missed out on them on the release day cuz the Mint changed the normal release time.  He bought some from a customer yesterday and called me right away. 
Picked up the gold and silver 2 coin sets as well as the gold reverse proof coin.  I also bought a few coins to fill some holes in my U.S. Type set.

Two more fractional gold from 1967, won in different auctions: Turkey 50 Kurush and Mali 10 Francs.
 

I just got an email from them saying please be patient. It's just one sovereign and one tube of silver Brits.
Frustratingly, I am still waiting for my boat to come in. Flipping banks! When Ii do get my money I will be buying 1000 oz of silver plus the rest.

Yeah, that's the email  I got. Nothing to worry about, just the opposite. Huge demand!

This really is an existential battle. A fight to the death. I am one of the mosquitos and I won't stop biting.

Trust Captain Ahab here. You're being a tad too pessimistic. But I do wonder whether the elites will at some time clamp down on us peasants owning PM's.
It could be a catalyst for further social unrest.

Silver is -10% since the 1980's. Everything else that is a 'commodity' is up 200%-300% (including gold)
 
Silver should rise considerably, it's almost criminal that it hasn't.

Im thinking the same.
After seing bitcoin mania, nothing will surprise me.
When people loose their mind, fixed on getting rich, getting blinded by vision of massive gains... Its impossible to predict when it stops.
Bitcoin doesnt even exist. Bits of data somewhere, and yet people are paying $40k for it.
Someome calculated that bitcoin mania dwarfed tulip mania from 300yrs ago - regarded as biggest speculative mania in our history.
Soo.. Im just grabbing popcorn and wait.

this was exactly the case in 2011 when silver hit its all times highs.  No worries about buying, as next stop was £75oz then £100oz
Yet just this past year, when SLV was £10.**oz were we re-mortgaging the house and sells our clothes for it ? nope.
just usual general moans and despondency about "manipulation"   "this always happens"   "when is this gonna change?"   "we cant buy physical at £10oz ? "
The behaviour of joe public investor is the mirror opposite of how we should act but dont 

£50 is nothing, really. I expect it to go higher than £100 in not so long a time. 

The vaults in the world trade centre were 16 acres, you only have to look at silver storage places to see ingots upon ingots upon ingots sitting there making the rich richer 
There are short terms gains to be made but not in my opinion a plan for looking term wealth or asset retention 
Look at platinum you cant buy a platinum ring for less than gold in a high street jeweler why? Its 45 % ish less per ounce than gold thats because its manipulated 
It can be down to the fact catalytic converters have gone down the swanny. 

its being forced up just like the gamestop stock, silver will come back down once they stop this but how high will it go

Looking at the dozens of "for sale" posts that have arrived the past 12+ hours, it nice us die hard long time silver stacker folk who have been on the forum for years have confidence silver is going to the moon and HODL'ing 😁😆😅🤣 
 

Today I bought my 1st 1oz plus gold coin. I worked it out at 3.75% over spot.
Couldn't wait to see what happens with the price at 20:00🤞
And should be free delivery as I already have an order in at Baird and Co

Saved and sold a lot of my other coins to get this one, and what a beauty! 1826 George IV Sovereign Proof NGC PF66UC.
 
 

Today I purchased this Single Finest Half Sov from a friend @SVcollector. Its another don't tell the misses coin
Can't wait to add it to my collection
