opinions on Gov coins vs rounds? I have a pretty good feeling that a lot of the secondary market will crash once boomers die off and Gen x starts selling all their stuff at cash for gold shops. I imagine that if most of you are buying for an inflation hedge, the actual price of the metal is going to appreciate way higher than the premium on the specific coin.

You can’t avoid VAT if you’re from the UK in any way except the Group Order Scheme from Estonia. This requires you to give money to someone you’ll never get to know and hope he’s in a good mood to fulfill your order.

Otherwise that 20% Silver VAT will cut into your margins so badly you’re better off buying 1/10 and 1/4 oz Gold Coins. These are COMPLETELY tax free in the UK. Silver coins of her Majesty the Queen are only CGT free, cheap golden coins are overall a better option for a Brit.
Unless you like silver more and you don’t mind the VAT, just forget about any fast amd massive investment return.

ebay is alright, always check the sellers feedback and experience, if its fake ebay will side with the buyer so you just have to make a claim. buying outside of the uk has more risk & hassle if you have to return. when shopping on ebay get to know the 'advanced search' for finding deals against spot price

local dealers and shops are a good bet if you have the time, some kid shop assistant sold me a big bag of .500 shillings for £10 since he just googled 'shilling price' and got the cupro-nickel price. Things like that balance out the odd fake.

for gold I always buy from a proper dealer since theres's no vat.

Alright silverbros, explain to me why you stack silver vs something else. Is it supposed to go up or at least hold value in the event of a recession?

Something weird happened to American coinage. We moved from ideals engraved in our monies such as Liberty and shifted towards the image of Man. Sure, Ben Franklin and Washington are great people, but they're just that - people. People are fallible.

Here is how you DCA silver:

1. Set a stacking goal for the year and divide the ounces by 52. This is how many you buy every week in principle.

2. If you adjust for inflation the average price of silver for the past fifty years has been about $15.15. Divide this by the spot price of the day you buy your weekly ounces.

3. Multiply your weekly goal from Step 1 by the ratio determined in Step 2. This is how much silver you will actually buy. Buy junk silver for fractions.

Example:
> I buy 4oz per week.
> Ideally I would buy exactly 4oz if silver had a spot value close to $15.15.
> Spot price at this moment is $16.92.
> $15.15/16.92=0.895
> 0.895 • 4 = 3.582oz.
> That means that I buy 3 oz plus 1 Half Dollar, 1 Quarter, and 1 Nickel for the week.

Later, Spot Price drops to $10 per ounce.
> $15.15/$10= 1.515.
> 1.515 • 4 = 6.06
> Buy 6oz and a Nickel.

Sure gold is worth more than silver, but you're clearly not up to date with the precious-metals market. Silver has shown higher returns than gold this year. Some smart metal-traders have even sold their gold in favor of silver, and this has paid off.

This method eschews market timing. If the price rises you buy less and if it drops you buy more but you spend the same money either way. Investment and hedging is important but so are discipline, patience, and budgeting. You'll catch the dips, dodge the traps, and always steadily accumulate.

Also remember that every passing year has an average price of its own. Every year there is more inflation. This means that every year the historical average can change and thus you should budget accordingly.

Buy silver like it is fractional gold. Every time you hit the ratio trade it for gold and start again. In this way you might catch silver during a bullrun and you get there faster and it is better on average than saving cash.

First here is my source:
https://www.macrotrends.net/1470/historical-silver-prices-100-year-chart

Second, to illustrate my point it says that the average closing price for 2019 was $16.16 which is about 7% more than average. Over the course of the year this is not too bad as 4oz per week would result in spending about $180 more than the historical average. However, if the average climbed up to $20 that is over a 30% increase which can add up to spending over $1000 more for the year. A year like 2011 with an average price of $35.12, even without accounting for inflation, is a 232% increase. That means spending over $4K for the same 4oz per week which puts you at risk for losing a lot more money if it dumps.

Contrast with the other method. By focusing on the historical average you can better gauge if you are making money or losing money. At $16.16 I am not buying one whole ounce apiece - I'm buying junk silver - probably a silver dollar and a quarter. At $35.12 I buy even less - something like a half dollar and a dime. No matter what I spend the same money. If it dumps however, I buy more. Look at 2001 with its average price of $4.37. Let's adjust this one for inflation as that's twenty years ago: $6.34 today. For about the same money as ever I can buy 2.39× as much silver and stay within budget. When silver pumps back up it will compensate for the less and less I buy on the way up while I remain within my budget.

You seem like you know what you're talking about, so:

Is it worth it to buy a massive bag of 72% coins? 2KG of silver content total, at €2,695.00.

>> No.16559540

>>16556972
In Norway we don't have VAT on imported coinage provided that it has a face value which is quite remarkable considering that the politicians find up ever increasing ways of fleecing the population so they can give it to immigrants.

>> No.16559803

>>16559304
So you have one of two goals: 500 or 1000 ounces.

> 500oz ÷ 20oz per week = 25 months
That is how long it will take you to reach your goal at the historical average price.

I do things by the week though so:
> 25 months ÷ 12 months = 2.083 years
> 2.083 years × 52 weeks = 108.33 weeks
So basically 108 weeks.
> 500 oz ÷ 108 weeks = 4.63oz per week.

Now we can see a base of 4.63oz per week at historical average price. That means:
> 4.63oz × $15.15 = $70.14 per week.

This does not account for premium. I buy Eagles and junk so I keep it safe and assume a 20% premium.
> $70.14 + 20% = $84.17 per week.

So basically $85. That is your weekly budget. Therefore your annual budget is:

> $85 × 52 = $4,420 per year.

This is what your annual budget could be. If silver climbs in price you will not get as much silver but your money in the here and now is under control and you get to accumulate some silver every week. Remember: if silver goes down in price your money buys more and more silver for the same price.

I hope all that helps.

>>16559350
So that's close to $3000. Do you know the silver weight per coin (i.e. 72% of total weight is silver)? Do you know the premium? Those factors are important.

I play the weekly, dollar-cost-average game as a means of weekly financial discipline as well as to avoid market- timing mentality. Buying large sums all at once is risky because I do not know if the price will dump nor how far. A lot of silver investment is about wealth preservation so when I buy large sums based on one week, no, one day's price I expose myself to the risk of losing money on that singular purchase which means I will fail to preserve my wealth right away and will have to wait for the market to pump the price just to make money back. But if I buy less silver as the price goes up I have the chance to accumulate more value as it pumps while reducing risk exposure. The opposite is true when it goes down: I am exposed to less risk in buying more and that compensates for the silver I did not buy when it is up.

So is it worth it to buy €2,695.00 in silver? Depends on your income, your budget, and your risk tolerance. I would personally try to spread that money across the calendar year. As for the coins themselves silver is silver especially when it's old coinage.

>> No.16559978

>>16559825
And of course it will take twice as long to reach 1000oz on the same budget. Finally, you will probably not get it *exactly* at that price point per week or year but you'll certainly be well within the ball park every week if you take the time to calculate your weekly purchase. I use spreadsheets and it's a beautiful machine. I enter the week of the year and the current spot price and it tells me how much to buy. I have a junk silver calculator to account for the fractions so that I maximize every week.

Spreadsheets are your friend.

Ah okay, the silver weight itself is 5kg. If we convert that into ounces that is 176.36981oz of silver. Multiply that by today's price of $16.92 and that's $2,984.17. Convert to Euros and that's €2682.77 which means you are paying about 0.45% over spot price which realistically means that you are basically paying spot. Not bad, not bad at all.

If you set your annual budget for the year you can save up or spend it all at once. If you spend it all at once you must exercise discipline and patience by only buying more silver if it fits within your annual budget. Do not FOMO into silver (or any investment). I noticed that there are smaller quantities that you can buy them so you might want to look into those to split it up over the year if you please.

All in all, I hope you figure out what is right for you. I and everyone else will be here anonymously helping out as you think of new questions and get new ideas.

Since I've started investing into gold and silver, It made me realize how niche of a thing that is among your everyday people.

Well duh, they happen on average every 7 years or so. We're far, far overdue.

Something like the Great Depression is once a century or so, and that almost happened again in 2008. They "saved" it by bailing almost all of the big players out, but in reality they only made things worse for the next recession by not allowing the normal debt deleveraging that should happen in a healthy market downcycle. When the next recession comes (and it will come), I don't know how they're going to be able to "save" it again. The rates are already low, they're already pumping QE4 (fucking $500bil more just announced for end of year), forward guidance doesn't work anymore, etc.

Miners are a completely different asset class than precious metals themselves. Invest if you want to speculate.

ETFs should be categorically avoided however. They destroy the fundamental price discovery that is "supposed" to back a healthy free market. Suddenly the marginal buyer doesn't care about fundamentals and just buys some of everything.

Stay away from GLD/SLV in particular though. It's an inflated manipulated paper market. The """custodian""" and primary authorized participant for the SLV is none other than JP Morgan. The custodian for GLD is HSBC. Good luck with that, you can buy/sell now but when a liquidity crisis hits and the spot price moons, I can guarantee you won't be able to get out. Read the fine print of any ETF and in particular the language they use for custodians and "crisis" situations.

Depends what is your plan. Do you want to sell everything when the price doubles/triples? It would be a nice income, maybe even enough to buy a house and rent it. Or maybe sell half of your stack, invest it into some other asset and keep the other half for another bull run.
My plan is early retirement, the day I sell all of my gold and silver will be the last day I've ever worked a "normal" job. I'd still probably do something on the side, or some interesting part time if I can find it. I'm 30y old right now, if I can "retire" before I'm 50 that would be dream come true. I'm just hoping that in the next 20 years the prices of gold and silver will go up due to another Financial Crisis, I'll make a fortune on my stack that I'll put into Real Estate (that will be even cheaper because of the said crisis).
After that just leave the estates to the Estate Agency, get paid every month and travel the world, enjoy life, get myself a Tesla Cybertruck Mk. IV or something.
It's good to have a plan and a goal. Don't just stack, sit down and THINK what you want to do. Long term investment? Retirement fund? Short term investment? There are many options with gold and silver.

10oz gold and around 600oz silver right now. Getting 400oz silver more till the end of 2020 and then I stop stacking. I'll wait half a year and analyze the prices, consider my options, plan the future depending on my current job and my relationship. If I ever stack after that, it's only gonna be gold. As long as gold is below 2000 an ounce, it's a good deal. I'll try to get to 20oz before the Bull Run/Economy Crisis.
No target price really, I'm just waiting for the Real Estate Market Crash so I can sell all that metal and buy small apartments for rent.
If there is no moon mission in the next 10 years, I'll just sell it when I'm ready to retire. Should be enough for the rest of my life if handled reasonably.

Obviously none of that is going to happen if gold and silver never go to the moon. Then my stacks will just end up being a small savings account. One way or another, I'm not really losing anything here. It either stays pretty much as it is or it makes me a millionaire.

I have spoken, night lads.

Technically speaking if you know how much you paid over spot per ounce you will know at what point you break even. Do not sell any sooner than that.

There are a few ways for your stack to reach that break even point. The first is to utilize the DCA strategy I laid out earlier because it uses the historical average price as a base and every purchase is proportional to it. This means you do not need to track the spot price of every individual purchase. The second is to wait until annual inflation compounds until it exceeds all premium, shipping, and taxes you spent on top of spot. The third is to track how much money you spent, divide it by how many ounces you have, and to multiply the ounces by the current spot price. Divide that price by how much you spent per ounce to know what you currently have gained or lost.

Not really bullshit, i see a few ms graded coins like that on apmex for over 300$ but I guarantee if you take them to a coin shop, you won't even come close to getting that much, and God knows how long you would need to sit on it to break even, it's just not worth the time.
Graded coins are pretty much a huge meme as far as investments go. They are more of a luxury, I totally understand wanting to preserve history, but I don't understand buying ms/ngc graded coins as an investment.

I have over 1000 and still feel like I need a lot more to be comfortable during the collapse.

The correct amount of silver is n+1 at these prices where n is the current amount of ounces you own.

Why are these motherfuckers on a back order of one month? The collapse hasn't even started yet.

I'm literally the only stacker I've met in my whole life, even my whole family and friends think I'm retarded.

I don't think the public is giving big blocks of silver for Christmas

The fed is currently printing 100 billion dollars a day and pumping it into the repo market to keep the banking sector liquid. If just one percent of this repo money went into silver it would be able to purchase 1,800 metric tons of physical silver each day. Would the world even be able to meet such orders for a week let alone a month or year? I highly doubt it.

The hunt brothers showed just a couple rich guys can easily buy the entire world supply.

I don't know anyone that buys silver or gold. I mentioned to a co-worker awhile back that the silver market was good to enter when it was $15 and it was all Greek to him.
