We need a whole silver stick video. All the major stackers on RUclips have them time for you to show us your silver stack my friend. It’s educational😊 I always look on mineral exchange to see how the market is paying for silver bars vintage
I know, I know! It's tempting, too, because it'd be a fun and easy video to shoot. But I don't see myself doing that. Too many different pieces, too many different subjects all at once. But for those interested, you can see a lot of my vintage 10 ounce bars in this video: ruclips.net/video/Iguum4SiFr8/видео.html And a great tip about Mineral Exchange to see recent sales of scarce and rare bars!
You and I are thinking the same this week Dub-C! The topic of this video has been on my mind all week. I really enjoyed the contrast of silver to your Scotch collection, that really drives home the upside of collecting in general. Well known names and rarity is the way to go if you can for vintage. Overtime as silver collectables increase in value counterfeits will be a bigger problem, imo.
RCM costco bars for me lately. 10oz for 309.99 when spot was 30.64. No speculation needed, lower premium than generics, couple % back with rewards. Beautiful bars.
Did any of you know, the word silver and the word money are the same exact word in atleast 14 different languages around the world. Don't believe me look it up yourselves
Id also like to mention silver has been the currency of the human species all across the world longer than it hasn't been. It was currency pretty much since the Dawn of Civilization till the 1930s. Also look this up as well.
I love vintage silver 👊👍i love hunting them down ,i have one LCS that sells most all silver as silver and scored some awsome pieces from them but they dont get alot of stuff in all the time,i even scored my 1/2 ounce Englehard gold cotton round from them at gold spot price a few years ago 🤠 im always excited to go there to see what i might find
Pretty much if you never really count on getting your premiums back( which I never do) a few novelty pieces are fine if they strike a your interest in them.
The interesting silver always seems to stay in the deep stack no trading for gold just stays put. My precious. My lcs sells bars the same if its generic or vintage. Now if its a round he may charge 2 over for a prospector.
My intention is to buy Monarch Mint, give it to my grandkids and hope they keep it until it turns the same color as your is. I've made 3 purchases so far. 2 oz day of the dead bars coming up...
@@Dub-C_Coins Yeager's poured silver ingots are almost all odd weights. I didn't realize it until checkout 1.1, 2.2, etc. must be his mold sizes, gives a smidge more than advertised. buying a bunch of modern poured stuff is still new to me as i prefer the vintage bars, too
Yeah! I used to do that and randomly buy small slabbed foreign gold on ebay and have them shipped to an unsuspecting nephew. A week later he'd email me and be like...what? :)
Honestly I'd really like to buy more silver, but it's so expensive now. 32 + premium + tax it's like almost 40/oz. Last year I could buy it at 21/22 for total is like 25avg /oz
Yep. Check places like eBay for silver medals. They often don't sell quickly, and sometimes pieces have been up long enough that their silver value eclipses their asking price. Especially those pieces sold with free shipping!
@@Happycamper10 we sorta have to buy it right now. Trump and Kamala are about to print their way out of it and next year I don’t want to be holding a ton of cash like this.
So what you are saying is my Silver is Old Truck Silver. I would agree with that. That is why I am The Bottom Of The Precious Metals Community. The Precious Metal Outlaw.
Hey Dub C, Is it 30yrs or 40yrs of collecting/purchasing PM??? Seems like such a wide spread in years for such a matter of fact guy/speaker like yourself. That whole subscriber bit in the beginning.......returning and new subscribers sounds an awful lot like S2G's line. Just a few points I thought should be cleared up. Some nice silver and info that u share/show as well🤯 Ok then mate take care✊
Thank you for your comment. But you misunderstood my introduction. Allow me to make it clear for you: What I said at the beginning of this video and what I say at the beginning of most of my videos is that "I'm simply trying to share my experience having bought and sold precious metals and rare coins for the last 30 or 40 years". The key there, and why I offer such a wide range, is because I collect--and this channel is about--precious metals AND rare coins. You are welcome to re-watch the video and I think you will catch your mistake. I began collecting coins when I was 5. By the time I was 10 I had become proficient in scarce US coinage and had started pursuing foreign coins. Shortly thereafter I started expanding into precious metals but wouldn't have considered myself to be what we think of today as a "stacker" for several more years. So...better than 40 years for rare coins, not quite 40 years for precious metals = 30 or 40 years. I'm afraid I don't know who S2G is.
There is a true market for vintage precious metals but the market is small. Some people won't pay extra for them but they would pay way over for a common date low grade coin in a holder. SMH ↔️
In my experience, at the moment ‘foreign’ .925 (sterling) modern silver rounds and coins seem to be the items with the lowest premiums…… and Vintage scotch? Good move; crazy prices at the moment.
.925 is such an unfortunately unloved alloy. More pure than 90%, trusted for centuries. I really like my .925 pieces--especially the Mexican onzas of 1978, 1979, and 1980.
Silver closed at $26 per ounce less than 2 months ago. I've been stacking long enough to remember silver at less than $5 per ounce. And not long before it was $5 per ounce, it was $50 per ounce. Don't assume silver will continue on this trajectory. It's every bit as likely to go down as it is to go up--and we forget that at our own peril.
sorry lets go back in time to 1900 there would be no such thing as generic silver silver bullion or coin is moey real money real wealth true stackers hold silver for that reason silver is rare enough it dose not need a small serial number for its value to be recogized. we put are money in silver not to gamble we do it to seperate our selfs from the system and to protect are wealth

EXCELLENT video my friend. Keep em coming
Very nice vintage bars! One of my weaknesses when it comes to stacking lol. Thanks for the video!
@@TimsStackingAdventure Thanks!😀
I think I get it now. Thanks for the explanation and for taking the time ti clear that up for me. I appreciate it thank you.
good looking stack :)
These are very interesting bars. Awesome treasures.
Thanks! They're out there if you look for 'em!
Just found this channel, love it
Yay! Thanks for watching and thanks for the nice comment! 😄

Right on! That Engelhard 1/2 ounce is a super good pick-up!
I prefer sovereign for liquidity but have shifted more towards a stacker mindset over time
Me too!
Pretty much if you never really count on getting your premiums back( which I never do) a few novelty pieces are fine if they strike a your interest in them.
That's a mature and realistic way to look at it!
Hello All! Looking forward to checking this out
The interesting silver always seems to stay in the deep stack no trading for gold just stays put. My precious. My lcs sells bars the same if its generic or vintage. Now if its a round he may charge 2 over for a prospector.
Yep, I agree. Nice that your local sells them the same!

Nice!
neat stack you have there! i like the odd weights of vintage and modern poured ingots. recently got a 4 oz bar that weighs 4.44 oz.
Thank you! Your 4.44 oz bar sounds pretty cool!

I too collect both scotch and silver! Unfortunately, I find that one of them gets consumed and the other just continues to stack up! 😂

@@Dub-C_Coins 👍 I really like .925; I prefer to not slab coins and they are much more robust than .999. I like UK .900 too.
$25 silver? How old is this video?
