That's a first for me. I've never seen them broken apart before. Although they are nice looking. I like pre 1964 90% silver U.S. Constitutional for my fractional silver. $1.40 of any combination of dimes, quarters, and half dollars equal an ounce.
as most people don’t know what silver is and don’t know about constitutional silver it would be far harder to convince someone to barter with that than something like this. i’ve never liked constitutional personally though. except much of it is worn and actually less than if it was uncirculated. a lot of it is terribly worn thus less silver content and almost impossible to get exact silver content for pricing/bartering. I personally would not want constitutional from someone trying to barter with.
@@TheWorldisaLIE2 I actually have very little constitutional and even less fractional silver. I think I probably would have less trouble with constitutional then a 1/10 oz round. At least as far liquidating in a disaster. It would be easier to prove the constitutional is silver. How are you going to do that with a 1/10 oz round. There is plenty of information on constitutional to back your claim that it is silver. On the rounds all you have is the weight and purity which can easily be fake. That being said, 99% of my stack is made up of U.S , Canadian, British and Australia minted bullion which can be faked also.
@@richardmetcalf2346 in the case you mentioned you would not have access to internet to prove anything and silver in general would likely be useless unless you happened to run into a fellow stacker. As there are multiple books out there from people that have lived through collapse like in Serbia and Venezuela and none of them used gold or silver for barter and if they had likely would just have been shot and robbed. metals are really only good in times of law. If there is a monetary reset and you can sell to dealers or banks or the government that is the likely scenario. in a full collapse or end of the world situation anything of too much value most people will kill you for and not barter. because if they see you have even a little silver they will suspect you have more and kill you to look for the rest
Looking back on my spreadsheet, I bought an Emirates blister pack of 15x1g silver bars in early 2105 just for the reasons given. Costing £28 (spot price then around £10-11), equating to about £54/oz, I have to say it has not been a great investment. Still, it may serve its long-term purpose one day, even if for younger family. No regrets, win some, lose some, with other silver, gold and crypto bought, having more than made up. Update. Having just looked, one UK supplier is asking £5.50/gram bar, equalling around £170/oz), another £9.60, equalling around £297/oz (or £21 for a 1-off = £650/oz) and another, the same 15g set at £41 - none having any in stock. Crazy. I am quite shocked.
Great vid. I buy mainly Gold sovereigns but love to buy Silver as well. Silver isn't a great investment I buy 1oz coins and 10 x 10 combi bars because they look nice. Once bought shove it in the safe then once in the safe never remove it but rather buy more to look at them shove it in safe etc etc. Silver is so inexpensive but so nice looking .
The only thing you didn't do, which is by far the *most* *important* thing about putting them to "the test" is to confirm that they do break evenly and hence really are 1g each. I'm really disappointed that you didn't bother to weigh even one of them.
Im an ex smoker, alcoholic and takeaway binge eater Id rather have gold and silver in my pocket then alcohol in my blood, tar in my lungs and cholesterol in my arteries.
Got the Chronos 2021 and the Icon Mona Lisa already, and I don't care too much about the Year of the Tiger coin, so I'm voting for the Yin & Yang coin.
I managed to get one of those a few years back for $144...when that was "expensive." Now they're $210+...so the premium really kicks ya right in the ghoulies, doesn't it? But yeah...when you get cash for christmas, you gotta put it into something, right? So last year, I got 5 more, because I was gonna crack one apart! And then I didn't. So maybe I should get 5 more FIRST, so that I can crack that one apart? But I'll probably leave it encased...again...dagnabbitt... d=^/
I like the metal detecting channels, sometimes 1/4 and half silver coins are found and the 1/4 pieces of silver are really tiny. The whole coins found had a cross on one side, perhaps to enable the cutting to be a precise as possible. So, these divisible bars are not a new concept.
It makes me wonder how difficult it would be for this 1ozt bar at my local coin shop that has two divisions in it with all three segments labeled 1/3 troy ounce
There's a reason it's called Junk . It's dirty and worn . Has to be refined to use . Shtf scenario you will get a lot less because of this . 3 9's fine ahead of the line . Sell it get fractional .
If you send out gram bars as gifts, what is the harm? I wager most people buy two and keep one. Almost tempted to break up a Maplegram card in the same manner.
Bro those are good for resell what you mean don’t buy them lol did you see how they flipping them on eBay 😂🤦🏾♂️ those are good investment to double up fast 💨

@@TheWorldisaLIE2 I think this is really hard to fake as well, I have never seen anyone make a bar like that.
@@TheWorldisaLIE2 This is best fractional silver investment IMO
question is, do they all weigh exactly a gram? Less of an issue with silver but can imagine might cause problems with the gold version...
Something we all secretly want to do. Thanks for sharing
I would like to think that i would be quiet open about wanting to play with 100 1g's silver bits.
Im just joking, Thanks Silver Wolves..

Was inspired to buy it as the banking system is uper sketchy and bartering could be right around the corner!
Whoever invented these is genius. That said, I don't own any.

Why don't u care of about the Year of the Tiger 🤣😂 Let me guess! It is so super popular I believe.

chance you know about what the difference would be in price open or kept new? i uess @ todays buy back prices so to speak
That was cool! I was always curious how hard they were to break apart!
I bought the 1/10 silver combibar, part of my first precious metal purchase. Can't wait till they come.
This is first time I have seen this. I would just leave it as is. Are they ever cool. Thanks for sharing the video.
Ty. I have been wanting to do this.

I just got 2 for a buck over spot per ounce at my local coin shop somehow.
individual weight would be interesting to see how close each gram is
I do like the silver cards, i don't have one, 1/4 oz Brit's are small as i go. Thanks for sharing..

Bravo!

Breakable coins are much harder to break up, cant remember who did it but theres a video on RUclips of someone doing it
I'd like to see the new Chronos coin !!
I thought about buying a multi gram coin like that ,,, but the price stopped me ,
For the demo, I'd have just done one row
These bar's remind me of chocolate bars the way they are designed to snap up

Like Because as Always Great
I like the Cronos. Those one grams are nice should you ever need to use them.
I've seen bits of these for sale in shops before in little baggies.
Very satisfying
Lunar Tiger is my favorite!
It answers my curiosity too! 😅😅
It's all about bottle caps in the Apocalypse.
I see pogs making a big comeback.
@@mahreeohhhh pogs? Not my pet monster or boglins?
I own a few of these just to add more variety to my stash. I’m definitely not making it a point to stack these. Same with the gold version.

Cool video thanks saved me from doing this keep up the good work
Bro those are good for resell what you mean don’t buy them lol did you see how they flipping them on eBay 😂🤦🏾♂️ those are good investment to double up fast 💨
Get yourself a quality dolls house treasure chest and fill it with these...
What i see that this 1gram X100 gram i can see that it has a potential to make a puzzle 🧩 of it?🤓⚖️🤓
Wot were roman soldiers dailey pay packet again 😂 bud
