I go through phases of buying,sometimes i just get the urge to add to the stack.

I am at 92 oz silver and i have got a birthday coming up in may so hopefully my family will help me nudge close to that 100 oz i have been chipping away at.

I plan to stop at 100 oz silver but who knows damn addictive stuff this,

I do like the sovereigns i have been getting and plan to collect these.

There was something a while ago I read which stated that JP Morgan were the only ones long silver whilst everyone else was short. They could be the largest holders of physical but who knows. @craig12

Out of interest (I'm new), would it not make more sense to buy say a 10oz lunar/kook which would cost less than £0.30 more an ounce and have some potential premium when you come to sell it further down the line? 

 

Realise I may be talking nonsense, just trying to get my head around it all!

Depends why you are buying silver.

 

Stackers are only interested in piling on maximum Oz per £ spent.

If you are a collector you'll want all the fancy high premium stuff.

'Investors' might try and find well priced semi-numi coins which will appreciate well, which can be a bit hit and miss. Or it can work out well for you if you have a good eye.

 

What about your exit strategy? If SHTF and silver hits £100 an ounce (In mt dreams!! lol) Then I'd like to have a lot a little hundred quid coins to liquidate.

 

What makes sense to one person might be nonsense to another, and vice versa!

It's a good point, but I kind of like having lots of smaller coins rather than one 1ozer. It helps my stack look bigger lol

[Paul]

I believe the core market of stackers/collectors go for 1oz coins. Aside from a few 2oz coins i have picked up here and there i have nothing larger.  

 

Just look at the mintages and sales and it is nearly always the 1oz coin that sells out first. 

 

Also a 1oz coin is a proper coin sized ..........errrrr..........'coin'. 

 

Im sorry, but the 5oz and bigger gets a little silly in size in my opinion, a coin certainly shouldn't cover more than the size of your palm and i cant personally class them as coins.  

 

A 10kg silver coin is just a near £5,000 ultra fast window exiting device in event of a fire with a fancy emblazoned design on it

 

 

Rember it is all well and good buying these fancy sizes but always consider your exit strategy when you come to sell 

[motorbikez]

So I guess that's not you with the 10kg coin then Paul.

[Paul]

No - its not me.  The joys of google images.

 

No way would you catch me wearing x10 dwarfs condoms on my digits
