My fractional silver just arrived. 15 2g chips which actually total to 30,7g because of tolerances (ad said average chip would be between 2,00g and 2,12g with a average of 2,07g) they are very nice and make for a great small denomination stack. It will make a great companion to my 5oz bar and other aborted silver.

My first piece of gold came in the mail today. Just getting into metals so I started out with an American Gold Eagle 1/10 oz coin.

I am sure you all have been there, but I can't tell you how incredible it felt to hold gold in my hand. Not the cheap 18 carat gold chain we all had in high school, but an actual .999 gold coin.

It absolutely is. The first piece of gold that you buy is a special one. There's something mystical, almost magical about the feel of a gold coin.

Once you start, you can never stop stacking. It's a wonderful hobby to have and it gives you a lot of satisfaction to know that you're working towards building real wealth that has no counterparty risk.

24 karat gold will also never tarnish. Look up pictures of gold collected from shipwrecks which are hundreds of years old. The gold from those chests looks brand new, because gold doesn't reactive with anything.

Welcome to the family, brother.
 
Pd prices jumped upwards a little bit and is climbing a bit (still down from highs in 20'.) Not sure if because of inflation or because of the declining EV demand (Tesla earnings).
Its inflation, not industrial demand. Riddle me this what was gold and silver trading at in 2006, and what what it trading at 4 years later after the (great recession)?

Sorry to neg rate you with dumb but its fucking stupid to equate your silver to EV's.
Palladium and platinum sure cause they are industrial metal because the UN wanted to make every one control exhausts. As demand for over engineered trucks running on combustion engines is being reduced to Dictate, and lack of demand thats why palladium and platinum are falling compared to silver.

Double post sorry, Its 8:15PM in Eureka California, Silver is at 29.00 spot, I expect a crush before open but woo doggies!


Edit:
allot of dollar cost averages, when you got in at under 8 is it ok to let a newfag hold a small bag? asking for a friend

Costco earnings beat big on the back of sales of gold bars and silver
Costco selling as much as $200 million in gold bars monthly, Wells Fargo estimates
There are a few catches: Sales are limited to five per customer (up from two previously) and while the benefits to Costco’s top line are clear, it’s a little different story for bottom-line profit. That’s because in addition to the low premium the store gets for gold bars, it further offers 2% cash back for executive members and another 2% for those who use their Citigroup credit cards. The sales are adding about 3% to general merchandise sales but not contributing much to profit, Kelly said.
Is it worth it for you Americans to buy gold on Costco?

The value of purchasing through Costco is more greatly calculated by having an executive level membership, which earns you 2% cash back annually, this can be compounded by purchasing with a CC which can give 2-3% cash back on its own.

These rewards may generate the lowest premiums for purchasing gold, however, Costco sells out within a day or two each time it opens a sale - and they also limit purchase amounts per customer.

Never, ever sell for fiat, unless you're going to immediately turn around and use said fiat to purchase hard assets or skills.

Converting your silver to gold is obviously acceptable. Conversely, if you're saving up to buy land, farming equipment, anything related to agriculture and general self-sufficiency then these are sensible. Buying land and/or a house are all understandable.

When it comes to skill development, college isn't what it used to be. Coding is even questionable given how ubiquitous coders are. If you're thinking of receiving training in plumbing, electrical work, general craftsmanship then these are also acceptable.

Lastly, guns and ammo of course.

Real currency should only ever be used to gain real assets.
 
Got a bunch of silver thruppences pretty cheap
Do you go for pre-1947s or pre-1920s? I've only had luck with the former on eBay, and I'm guessing it's because others (by which I mean you, personally, you cunt, you minge, you absolute twat) have one-upped me in the bidding.

And my question to the thread in general, are hoard photos welcome or are they considered a faux pas?

More of an opsec and security thing I'd imagine.

it's always interesting to see what other people have ...
but maybe sharing photos of your hoard with the evil doxing website isn't the best idea.
Let's all meet over on /biz/ for hoard posts.

I try for pre-1920 but they’re a bastard to get, so end up with the pre-1947s. My main rule is “is it cheap and does it look cool?” My theory is if I overpay slightly now it won’t matter in twenty years.

Hoard post away, kiwi bro!
 
Looks like Satan finally managed to contact his boys at JPM for some True and Honest all natural US-certified price discovery. Me and the boys hate precious metals now, much rather go into the weekend with rapidly depreciating fiat toiletpaper.
Jokes on Satan, because any price drop means I get to exchange my worthless unbacked Rothschild goy notes for actual metals at a cheaper price... for like a day til it goes back up to 2500, then up to 3000, then 3500 etc. What really burns me up is that I'm just doing to the kike Bankerbergs the same thing they've been doing to my people and nation since 1913... giving dummies printable paper debt they think has value, and exchanging it for physical precious metals that I then use for generational wealth to enrich my own tribe. Imagine that.

You wouldn't be breaking any site rules by posting your hoard, so if you want to, feel free.
 
Last nite was wild, woke up to 29.65 but at close today we back to 28.00 I listen to a guy on you tube while at my wageslave Stock Market Live, not because I take his advice, but because he is like real time news for markets, better than fox business, yahoo, or Bloomberg.

This Josh cat put a short on gold, and he showed up late to stream this morning when he relized he was 10k in the hole lmfao. Man shit ...... By the close he said he was only down 1500, so he is doubling down lol conviction good for him.

I don't play that game the paper markets are bullshit the only gold or silver you should have is physical and in your own possession.
