And? I can get a 1/10 oz philharmonic for $230 in California in Oregon my friend pays $260. Thats more than I'd pay WITH tax here. The dealers figured that out first and since its lower here, peer to peer is lower too
I agree, we hear alot about picking up, dollar cost averaging, ect but no one focuses enough on exit strategy of stacking. Once you know why you're Collecting and stacking, it makes it easier for you to identify goals you want to achieve. Then understanding what you're exit strategy looks like
Enjoy the silver as a hobby. One day, you might just want to cash it in, but with the price always going in the wrong direction (Want to buy? It's high. Want to sell? Price is falling.), Treat your investment as a hobby, don't overinvest and put lifes other luxuries out of reach.
Can not overemphasize keeping quiet about owning silver. A friend had $30,000 of silver stolen. He thinks he knows who took it but, it’s gone. Probably worth at least double today. Don’t brag, just buy and secure it well, like in a big heavy safe.
Good advice. I note that greedy CA *JUST* changed its requirement on taxing precious metals. It used to be you had to spend over $1500, and as you point out, it's now $2000. Personally, I think taxing any of these transactions is wrong. Imagine changing a dollar bill into four quarters and having to pay tax on the transaction. Also, as to the end strategy, anything I haven't had to use for barter or anything I don't give away as a gift, I plan to leave to my children.
You *have* to pay a fee to withdraw money unless you have an account, but then you already pay account fees. Essentially the "tax" is just baked into the exchange
And always keep your hole punchers close to your stacks and make sure if you do tell "a trusted person" let them know you have those hole punchers and are willing to use them
Are the 1 ounce silver 2018 marvel rounds worth getting? I just started collecting a month ago seriously and I bought the Thor coin. Is it worth building that set? Thank you for your time, knowledge and efforts getting us this valuable information
That’s wonderful!!! I have a Son in the Navy and I buy kind of like you. I make sure he gets them and they go into a safe(I’m always bugging him to make sure their going into his safe. He’ll send a pic saying “Ok Dad, happy? Yes Son. Thank you”.).
I kind of wish I had stuck to simple stacking and had not gotten into collecting as well. My collection is basically just whatever different designs of coins / rounds I could find. Even though I tried to buy them on sale as often as I could it's still just not generally as economical as bulk stacking. Especially when collected ones have an added expense of keeping them in capsules, then needing a way to store the capsules. The collecting is more for fun it doesn't really feel like an investment, and certainly would be the very last of my silver that I would be willing to sell if need be.
Good info thanks for sharing. As a new stacker is it better to but "junk" buy the roll or just try to pick it a piece or two at a time? Thanks again for your time passing on helpful information.
Kind of sad that point 3 is true. I don't disagree though! It is enjoyable to share with friends and family and try to get them into it. Even if I don't show everything I own or where I store it, its pretty easy to realize I have a stack when I open up to close people haha.
The best advice I could give, no matter if you're stacking for weight or collecting, is to make sure you shop around! Dealers rarely have the same prices for the same item, different prices for quantities, rotating sales etc... also, some dealers offer discounts for veterans, military, first responders etc. For example, JM Bullion sells everything ar their "as low as" price. Provident metals (owned by JM) has like a 15% discount last I checked.
I’ve only told a couple people, but immediately let them know about my lead stack as well. If your gonna have gold and silver, you better have the lead to back them up!
Louisiana was about to start taxing bullion again this year but luckily the politician pulled the bill. State is so broke& politicians don’t want to cut spending so they want to start taxing everything.
Any advice for UK stackers. Silver is a bit more expensive in the UK for some reason. For example today Britannia 2023 1 oz Silver Bullion Coin (King Charles III) is £30.43 for 1oz coin. Spot price is £17.86. = $38.63 vs spot $22.67 Also I have a couple bars on my boat in a safe they are pretty tarnished. any storage tips.
I've talked to a few stackers in the UK and around Europe. It's crazy the VAT they apply in some countries. I'm told that doesn't apply to gold in the UK so most of them just stick to fractional gold rather than silver.
A mistake I made was I didn't recognize that the mint on my 10 oz bars may be different. I wanted Indian Head and I got sent Eagles. I went back to the site I ordered from and saw that it said the mint may be random. Well, at least when it comes time to sell, I won't be attached to them as if I would have gotten the Indian Head Bars. So it probably paid off better, but make sure you get the mint that they are advertising. I believe it may have worked out better in my case though. I wouldn't want to let go of my Indian Head bars if that's what I would have gotten.
I just paid the tax on line for silver, because when I drive over the line, their prices are to high o their silver, unless I drive further away, but then I have to pay high gas price. I do get my gold cheaper over the line, no tax.
You should have an episode on the specific youtubers who have created massive FOMO buying back in the spring; silver slayer is number 1 on that list! he's all quiiet now, but it was episode after episode of "silver resources are getting depleted y'all, just saying, just ask my buddy andy schectman!" and there's some other ones out there with the vid. thumbnails, "silver $2500!" it has to stop!
Avoid that guy like the plague. Wish now I would have earlier in my stacking Journey. I did not dca like I should have and I should have bought more AU.
@@sublimesounds147 I do. But since we're on the topic of fomo, yeah, they should call them out!, don't make this about me!, im not the one making money from ads to spread fear, I am an adult and I do watch all these stacking channels, thank you very much.
👍 Thanks! 😍 I don't know if anything you missed, sorry. 😅 But I do have a quick question: What is the silver that has the built-in anti-milking/anti-spotting technology; I forgot? TiA! 😊
I sold MOST of my colectables! Its about WEIGHT for me!! Best priced silver I can get!! I have some gold to! ...... 6 years in now, done well but WAKE ME UP WHEN IT HITS JUST $40+!!!!!!
Hey Silver Dragon, I see you got the Scottsdale mint lucky dragon. My number 1770. The 888 giveaway would have been great to win. Thanks for your videos, I got into stacking after watching you. 🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻
Texas doesn't have sales tax on bullion or PM coins. It does not require payment in cash though my local PM dealer does not accept credit cards (debit OK). Texas also has an official depository of PM for a fee.
Can anyone tell me why they charge me tax at Bold Precious Metals and also Golden State Mint? I have bought from a bunch of other bullion sites and private mints and was never charged tax. My purchase was for generic bars and generic rounds.
Well, in my opinion, stacking and collecting is hard to separate. For me, I don't pay crazy premiums, but I will pay more for what I like, just like stamps, art, or anything else. Just be realistic, if has metal value, and maybe a little more, depending on demand.
@@limbuel A Dollar just isn't worth the same anymore. Of course, get the cheapest premium that you can, but don't get hung up on waiting for Dollar Premiums to return. I don't think it will happen again. Then again, you probably weren't being serious.
@@fin59shaw A ounce of Silver is not worth the same anymore either. Spot price and premiums are dropping and will continue too is what I believe. Am quite serious just wait be much better buying opportunities ahead. Are you a bullion dealer?
@@limbuel Well, we do disagree, no big deal. Nothing wrong with waiting, everyone should only buy when one is comfortable with a purchase. No, I am not a Bullion dealer, but there are a lot of great choices on the Internet.
Here is a big nono that he didn't mention, but he actually demonstrated in the video he did. DON'T BUY NUMISMATIC at the end of the day the only thing that matters are the oz. Not only is the premium on the numismatic not worth it, but because they are less recognised (less common) they can actually sell for less in a crisis, then a US eagle or Canadian Maple leaf. So stick to bullion COINS
Fees are how card companies make some of their money especially if someone is only using a pre paid debit NOT a credit card (like me) there is no interest that the card company can charge because it isn't borrowed money so they have to make a profit with transaction fees... it's business so I understand why they charge them and cannot be mad at them for it they are running a business and are in business to make money. Another thing...for the reason of safety from theft and fire keep ALL your precious metals silver, gold etc stored in your neighborhood bank vault KEEP your entire collection there especially if you have no plan to sell it anytime soon anyway and are holding it as a preservation of wealth for the long term keep ALL your precious metals stored at your local bank.
What silver to buy depends on one’s reason to buy. I intend to make mine an inheritance to my much younger relatives. But also to have some savings in physical assets other than federal reserve notes. I won’t likely buy any comic book like pieces or Disney, Star Wars, or coins with current politicians images stamped on them.
Top 3 stacker channels on the web! ❤ your content silver dragons. God bless
I am not a lawyer, but generally speaking it is not illegal to cross state lines to make a purchase in order to avoid paying sales tax.
California doesn’t see it that way. They want their cut. That’s why I left.
😂🤣
Vt and NH don't agree either no tax in NH and vt want to no about cross border spending
I do it all the time
And? I can get a 1/10 oz philharmonic for $230 in California in Oregon my friend pays $260. Thats more than I'd pay WITH tax here. The dealers figured that out first and since its lower here, peer to peer is lower too

I panic bought when silver went to like $14 a few years ago.
That’s not necessarily a bad thing when it’s cheap like that. What you bought then is worth about 70% more than what you paid.
That's not panic buying. That's smart buying.
Ha only time I panic buy is to make sure I get the dip...lol

High Fives!
In the Anglo-Saxon (Old English) runic inventory, that rune is called "ilcs". Literally meaning "elk". When written, it makes an "x" or "ks" sound.
I have got to get my hands on that cast rune that is beautiful. I’m not one for collectors pieces but I’ve got to have one for my stack!
I buy 150.00-180.00 a month...since I am 69yo I am encouraging my grandson and give him something every time I see him

Just bought 4 Britannias today. Why not it is cheaper at the moment. I usually buy 2 oz per week.
I only came to oogle over that 5ozt libertad, and that libertad...😮
Excellent tips ❤
Another good idea while stacking is to sell some so you have an idea how that goes. If you haven’t sold any you will likely be disappointed.
great vids but i was wondering about where you found this cast rune algiz silver?
The 2023 Germania Kilo has that black light effect too, that’s so cool!

Gosh with all these taxes in the US , I’m very glad I live in Australia near the Perth Mint.
@silverdragons Do you the 3rd release in the Gangsters series release for sale? It's the 2oz John Dillinger antiqued coin.

Great video brother thanks for the info nice stack
Love the Haylebug Mint bar. I got most of the characters in 5 oz bars.
Good advice !! If I do tell someone about my stack the first thing I tell them is it’s in a safe deposit box at the bank ! Which is true ! 😀
Not a good idea. The government can confiscate it at any time
I’ve only told a couple people, but immediately let them know about my lead stack as well. If your gonna have gold and silver, you better have the lead to back them up!
I stack lead as well ! The “spot price”of lead has really dropped the last few months !! 🤣🤣 I been buying some here and there to increase my stack.
Don't keep anything in the bank that include their boxes.
Please let the SD Bullion giveaway be over.
What's an acceptable price over spot for generic silver?
~$3.50 to $1.50/ozt depending on how heavy the piece is. The heavier the piece the lower the premiums generally are
Louisiana was about to start taxing bullion again this year but luckily the politician pulled the bill. State is so broke& politicians don’t want to cut spending so they want to start taxing everything.

Trading down just to get something new, and selling silver to pay bills.
I just bought a roll last week. I started stacking gold. So silver was natural extension

How does someone avoid paying premiums on silver? Like seriously, everyone charges a premium even the local coin shops sell at a premium .

You don't need to physically hold silver. You can buy it through revolut etc
