Thanks baker!

>>50409493
argh!

Redpill me on platinum vs silver
>platinum wont be used anymore due to EVs replacing ICEs, EVs don't need catalytic converters -- main use case of platinum
>silver will be used for future batteries, 10x increase in demand from this alone
>silver will be used for current and future solar panel tech, 5x increase in demand >comex jews will never let silver pump

shiny things in the watchful enteral eye of the TPMCBB

>>50409585
i saw this last thread but didnt say anything. you guys understand that if an entire industry adopts something like a material (more than it already has, with silver) then, the price goes down?
if the "industry" is buying silver for car batteries(?) and if we say that every single company/car battery in the world uses silver, then theyll first buy up all of the silver, make mining/getting/moving it easier, and itll become cheaper and more bulk. not to shill but to give you some black-white comparison, then, if platinum is "no longer used" because every exhaust in the world is melted down and no more are made with platinum ever, then the price would go up, as 99% of the market for platinum dries up, becomes slower, with less incentive and "big guys" to keep it moving for others to take. the price would go up in this case as there are less uses for this

remember also that the "largest most difficult hurdle to overcome" with newer technologies such as car batteries is "adaption" and "footing" the cost of this. to make everything silver (and not platinum) there would have to be a lot of money poured into it, before it becomes profitable, or, adapted at all

>>50409585
I.E. if the people that make car batteries start to use silver for it, they wont be buying it from you. the price of it wont change. itll go down, even, as they will be getting it from bulk sellers wholl be getting more of it too. and itll make the price go down - i dont know how you see this making it go up
not that any single thing ever has a huge "world changing" impact on something like literal metals found in the ground as market

>>50409543
yo ho hooooooooo

>>50409585
The only thing you really need to understand is that Platinum is positively correlated with the market while Silver is negatively correlated. Silver performs best in Bear markets while Platinum performs best in Bull Markets.

>>50409896
I wish, nobody will hire me it sucks. First all the jobs in my area didn't care about experience they just wanted degrees and so I went to college, now nobody gives a shit about degrees they want a year minimum of experience. Buying silver with neetbux while job hunting but it ain't easy

>>50409865
>only $4 for eggs
damn you don't know how good you have it
t. $6 eggs

>>50409865
That's the biggest problem. People can't afford to take advantage of this dip because the cost of living has gone up. A lot of people who managed to save up money and buy silver during the Trump economy have been crushed by Biden and have been forced to sell their stacks. The most important thing is to not lose focus and to keep stacking.

>>50409865
>coin shop is loaded with panic sold stacks
nobody panic sells physical silver

>>50409922
I can pay them off pretty quickly, only risking maybe 1 month of interest payment to do so. MOASS is being ticked off tomorrow as that is the Ex Dividend date, and there is a good chance that money won't even be an issue. And in the case of shtf for the markets, I have hundreds of ounces of silver on the way :P

Very stupid to time out plays like this, but yolo.

>>50409960
That's still on them for buying outside of their means. As much as I wanted to drop more on PM's I didn't and now own my own property. I can appreciate them trying but they didn't do much in the end if they had to sell it within 4ish years.

>>50409943
Work for a temp agency while waiting.

>>50409970
The economy is fucked bro. People are selling their stacks to survive another month.

Shows that the ability to produce your own food is really important. Take up gardening, plant some berry bushes and crops. You don't wanna be burning through your stack to buy food.

>>50409949
The $4 for eggs feels bad because I swear like 2 months ago they were under 2 dollars, only the good free-range ones were pricey. Probably all those fires Microsoft goons are starting at the competing food plants. Also damn where do eggs cost $6 for 12? I'm in Florida and was surprised to see it that high. Tomato soup was also $2 for a small sized campbells can, like fuckin what that's supposed to be some of the cheapest shit and we're in the middle of tomato harvest.
>>50409960
I'm only mad at myself that I didn't start stacking pre-covid when money was easy to come by.

I should make something like this for Europeans. I made this when I made a trip to Ireland.

>>50410112
>I should make something like this for Europeans.
We already have ones for Germany, France and the Netherlands. Switzerland is so simple it doesn't need a complex chart.
I might make ones for Italy and Spain soon since they just had LMU coins and then some debased stuff a few decades later.

>>50409970
Sadly alot do. Desperation is a motherfucker, and not every stacker is a pmg-tier nerd about it. Oh well.

bird flu killed the flocks bro

>>50409851
Aye

>>50409585
Platinum, and Palladium are being used in so much more, medical equipment and air filtration systems included.
Also, rarest metals on earth, all are in the platinum group, while silver is more abundant than dirt in the Earth's crust.

Only fools fall for the silver squeeze bullshit, and pay ze 50% premiums to their Jew bullion dealers.

>>50410180
I have a friend who does web development. Would /pmg/ be interested in a website dedicated to tracking melt values for a bunch of currencies, not just US money?

>>50410204
both are not and have never been monetary metals. silver once was, and is not anymore, its a commodity, gold has been and is still now a monetary metal.

>>50410208
that would be a handy service
>>50410195
without even reading anything else I bet it was the same Wuhan lab that made Covid that released this strain of bird flu

>>50410218
The questions isn't whether it's been used as monetary metal, but whether it CAN be used as monetary metal. And the answer is a clear yes.
As for industry, nigga they gonna need that shit to build spaceships and colonize alpha centauri and sheit.
We never really know what new tech around the corner, and what speaks for platinum group metals especially now, is a potential supply chain fail.
There's potential for it to go full rhodium if Russia tightens it's sanctions on the west even more.
It would be foolish not to have any in 2022.
And it would be equally foolish to go all in on it.

>>50410276
The available market cap of platinum is extremely tiny. Almost every asset will swell in price as money starts looking for a safe home. And aside from money use, exchange use, indsutrial use etc. There is a feature to these markets that is a bottleneck in supply that could cause a panic into the metal. Get your seat early. Even only ten years ago platinum was 2x gold.

My friend also collects silver and he liked this idea. He snagged this domain:

Minimalist web design strikes again

last few hours to buy frog friendship round

>>50410348

>>50410208
Yes, that would be handy. It should probably be limited to stuff that actually circulated in order to avoid getting clogged up with modern commemorative garbage.
Of course, NGC and Numista already list the Melt value of most Silver coins on their websites when you search for them, so what you're describing technically already exists.

>>50410413
Yeah, what I usually do is filter by year 1880- and everything circulating. We can add a little toggle to broaden it, and add a printable stylesheet so it's easy to print out a fleamarket cheatsheet.

>>50410276
supply issues are irrelevant when the demand is not there
platinum is simply not in demand
you can speculate about some new technology requiring it, but that's pure speculation

>>50410375
nice

>>50410439
Demand is constant, 90% of its supply to into the industry as opposed to only 10% for jewels or bullions.
The demand isn't high, at the moment, but it is constant, and pretty much outweighs the demand for gold in the industry.

Also, what's the plural of platypus? And what is a bunch of platypus called?

>>50410204
There are no 50% premiums you fucking moron. No site I've ever seen has ever had a 50% and I've been buying pms since 2001. If you pay 50% then you're an absolute fucking moron. Please by all means post a link to any fucking site on the internet with 50% pms premiums.

100% premium on a bullion coins, right in the OP, you illiterate inbred.

>>50410550
he's just a platinum shill / silver FUDer
we see a lot of em these days

>>50410550
American silver eagles currently have a premium often over 100%, and a lot of places sell US 90% at a 40-50% premium.
US stuff is really overpriced, it's not impossible for people to get suckered into buying just 'murican coins. Shoot, several stackers I personally know only buy US silver, no interest in anything else so they are probably paying really high premiums.

>>50410204
thanks for the tip! i was shopping platinum and for some reason the premium is like 120 percent. guess i could save money just buying 100 percent premium silver. any thoughts?
>https://www.jmbullion.com/2022-30-gram-chinese-platinum-panda-coin/

>>50410601
the premiums are there because the demand is there
US silver has more liquidity than some generic round
if you want to minimize premiums, you have plenty of options

>>50410576
Of you buy anything with color or limited edition in any pm your a fucking idiot. JM Buillion has hundred of siler coins/bars between 4.50 and 6.00 premium. I bet your yhe fuckong retarded ass nigger that bought the baby Yoda coins for fucking 130 an ounce. Go fuck off dumb fuck.

>>50410576
this must be a shill right, nobody is this retarded right?

>>50410350
Looking good already.
I just finished making an Italian Junk Sheet. I had to exclude all the commemoratives because there are too many of them.

>>50410601
Exactly, it's a special edition. Regular silver coins run 6.00 to on premium.

>>50410700
Fascist era Italian silver is high on my want list. I'm resisting buying it online because that's cheating.

>>50410204
plat chads rise up

>>50410637
Baby boomers and people that didn't also have cash savings. Like I said, I live in Florida which is home of the short-sighted boomer. Sad really.
>>50410657
Certainly, if they weren't so damn expensive I would love to stack mostly US stuff for that reason alone. I try to mix it up because I won't discount the possibility I ever have to sell/trade to a stubborn retard that only accepts US silver. And to be honest I'm kindof a coinfag, US coins and currency has such a rich history, I personally love them.

>I have placed multiple orders for these beautiful coins, it’s hard to beat the price for the random selection. In most cases, I have been extremely satisfied, however, there is only one employee that doesn’t care about the customer. It’s always the same employee, no matter how many random coins you order, they apparently have a problem grabbing different coins. From all the other employees, I actually received random coins which only adds to the great experience of getting these amazing coins.

based duplicate enjoyer

>>50410199
Checked, I need a cool treasure chest. Just pelican cases for me right now. Also sadly that isn't my coin just at a local shop! I should have swooped it before they sent it to get graded.

Why do you dumb niggers use limited edition coins and special coins to talk shit about premiums. Regular fucking silver coins or bars run from 3.99 to 7ish premium. If you pay 100% then you're the kind of idiot that would buy lunc and not btc.

>>50410485
So much hate against the lone plat chad ITT
means he must be telling the truth

>>50410576
Not the best example but absolutely correct.
>>50410688
What u retarded nigger, when is the last time you paid less than 30% on any bullion silver?
In fact the only way to pay less than 10% is to buy 100 ounce bars.
Dumb faggot, go back hiding

>>50410767
people bitch about premiums because they used to be like 2 dollars and then you pay 3 or 4 dollar premium on govt issue for security and notoriety.

now you are paying for security and notoriety for generic rounds which have neither and your selection is limited, sorry you dont have to be buying chibi gandalf coins in order to also want something nice looking or the 453359839th iteration of boomer buffalo nickels.

and thats not even talking about american silver eagles, for that price they can keep them

But all you haters and faggots alike, know that I'm right. That isn't even up for debate, everybody knows silver is the pk with the highest premiums nowadays. Can get gold coins for 3% over spot, but silver below 30% is considered a good deal....
So chill and btfo autistic silverfags

>>50410893
gold premiums are about the same
it's just a lower % of the cost because gold is more expensive
in other words, you're a fucking moron

>>50410946
No the moron is you dumbass.
The fucking brain gymnastics to come to the conclusions that 30% and 3% are interchangeable, are remarkable.
A sovereign comes with 3% say around 400$ the silver that you can buy for 400$ would come down to a best deal of half a kilo, 15ounces.
To have less than 10% premiums you need to buy big.

>>50410645
Don't waste your money on PMs, silver will go to $2 and gold to $1000 by EOY.

>>50410946
correction: gold premiums are higher than silver premiums, kek

>>50410792
>What u retarded nigger, when is the last time you paid less than 30% on any bullion silver?

At the time this cost less than 10% of spot price, forget about kike premiums.

>>50409585
Platinum is more heavily shorted than silver in relation to marketcap
Green ev memes won't work, most cars will be hybrids which require more PGMs for the catalyzes compared to regular ICE vehicles.
Platinum has only recently been manipulatable, more use cases are discovered. The world's hardest and most scratch resistant alloy is gold+platinum
It will also be used heavily in hydrogen fuel cells going forward
For me, the main charm is that it is very dense and value dense, while simultaneously being more historically undervalued compared to gold than silver
As soon as I run out of storage space I am only going to stack platinum and gold

50411107
50411047
Begone with your FUD we have heard it all before.

>>50411107
Projecting much there? Sounds to me like you are just a broke ass peasant. Keep seething that you are poor maybe something will change.

>>50409585
Platinum is essential for hydrogen fuel cells. Hydrogen fuel cells are better than batteries for electric vehicles because they are lighter and smaller.

>>50411071
10% isn't bad, but its still triple tye premiums fractional gold comes with.
>>50411020
3% for a sov sounds about right, seen gold francs go for even less.

Can y'all just chill tf out with the platinum hate?
Silverbacks feeling threatened is retarded. Though this is the precious metal general, not the silver and a bit of gold general.

if you don't mind a bit of scuff, you can get in-spec (ie, they weigh correct) sovs for 1%

>>50411219
No, it was $2 total for that ounce. A lucky find one shouldn't hold their breath waiting for, but I thought it was cool that even with bullion (scrap is different) premiums aren't an inescapable eternal constant.

Don't need the whole ring from you findings. Frame them. Here's how mine turned out.

>>50413034
We have probally closed in on a 1/4 oz total probally a bit less. We haven't gone out but maybe 2-3 times this year work has been popping so I have neglected going out as much.
We sold a bit to buy more shit. Wont go selling to that buyer they only paid 65% of spot got some new pans and a mini sluice box we cant use up here lol.
Out side of the original investment I didn't wanna put more money into it than necessary and only put back in what we get out. I should have gotten a metal detector but we live and learn.

>>50413007
Not sure about your growing region, but garlic is usually planted in late summer/fall and kept in soil overwinter for harvest the following year so you could work on setting up a garlic bed right now if you want a tasty and healthy addition to your tomato dishes. For next year I highly recommend potatoes because they're easy, delicious and full of calories, I have half my yard devoted to them because schizo-autism and have learned that they thrive in raised beds or containers of fluffy compost.

>>50412909
ya dun good kid. welcome to the club.

Is it worth it buying silver at all or should you just go with gold? Silver value seems much more artificially inflated and it will also take more space.

>>50411532
>smells like pizza when you rub it

>>50413122
bought 1 American Eagle 1/10 oz gold coin and 4 1 oz of silver bars, nothing much but it's a start

>>50413187
It was said that there is not enough silver to go around for every millionaire to own 1 oz.

>>50413108
1/4oz sounds pretty good for just panning! Why can't you use a sluice, is it because of crap water flow or a restriction imposed by the land or claim owner?

>>50413225
They have restrictions on what we can and can't use in the "free" area. If we get a claim its free game to do what ever as long as we reclaim the land. The forest service doesn't want people just tearing it all up to protect the land (I can't disagree cause it would be dope to take my kids there some day). Once we bought our rings I just sold the gold we had there was no point in my mind holding it when I could use it to get more gear. There will be more to come out of the ground!
As per the black sand, I just gotta get another cast iron pan to roast it off and not worry about metal poisoning/cross contamination. but its been in vinegar since a few weeks ago just letting it sit. Hopefully I can get just a bit of dust out of it see if its worth it you know?

Off to work happy stacking boys!

That's a nice start. Just wait until you get them in your hands, your lizard brain will activate and you find yourself wanting more and more shiney. If only our currency would return to gold and silver, I think people would enjoy life/work more, it just feels so much better

>>50413211
Here's a way to calculate that.

I don't make enough money in one paycheck to buy a whole ounce of gold at current prices. I also invest everything that isnt used to pay the bills, so I use a whole paycheck to buy silver. I want to buy some gold but would prefer to buy whole ounces instead of fractionals or sovs. The question I'm going to ask is how do I not feel bad about floating a portion of one paycheck for a couple weeks to combine it with the next and buy a whole ounce?

>>50414030
I really like the two silver maples I have and have even seen a gold maple behind glass before, just never actually been able to hold or inspect one. It was by the grace of God I could ever even afford 1/4 ouncers lol. I've got a long way to go for a big boi.

what do we think about these? wasnt really aware of them, thought it might be some limited edition, but theyve made them before, so I guess not? premiums seem very reasonable, doubt theyll hold resell value like a eagle or buff, but they seem pretty cool, and are cheaper, so...

Hi frens,

Copper looks like it's $7/kg. https://markets.businessinsider.com/commodities/copper-price

But it's $100/kg here https://silvergoldbull.ca/1-kg-kilo-elemental-copper-bar

And it's $65/kg at sketchy places https://www.amazon.ca/Kilo-Copper-Bar-Bullion-Paperweight/dp/B08BJGXWFW/

And $25/kg from China (lol).

Where can I buy copper for less than a 900% markup?

Either buy copper pipe at the hardware store or buy and save old pre-1892 pennies. Otherwise copper seems like a waste if you aren't building something with it, it's too bulky and makes your hands smell bad.

>>50414167

I live in Canada, we don't have pennies any more.

>>50414228
just buy silver and gold instead. if you want to diversify buy some platinum or palladium. it doesn't need to be complicated.

Meanwhile, i don't know much about canadian currency composition, but in my country the coins are pure copper from before a certain date; only recently were they debased to steel and such, which means you can indeed stack coinage, just from before a certain date.

Failing that, see the first paragraph.

because youre a fucking retard that thinks an industry not using platinum any more will make the price go in the wrong way. i dont even remember which way it was, but its the opposite way to what you actually believe
if i had to guess without looking, though, it would be that the metal no longer being used would make the price go up,

yes - up, and silver would go down (if it is adapted). something going against your (WRONG) beliefs doesnt mean its "FUD", which youve been trained to say and act in this way emotionally when your retarded shit is being attacked. fuck you

You've convinced us to stop stacking, good job man, now go back to whatever you were doing. Look I'm even giving you some (You)'s for your dopamine receptors to enjoy, you're welcome

It's nice to know that a fair amount of people care so much that anons are "wasting" their fiat on "rocks". I don't know their reasoning but they care so much for y'all that they come into these threads just to tell you.

wanting the economy to collapse - spending all of your money as well, not trusting in the currency. day-dreaming about everything going to shit so you can use your precious metals
it isnt even that, and fantasies can be good. even those. and its good to invest too.
>>50416551
i dont want you to stop. i love precious metals as well

i wouldnt mind being able to post without getting called "FUD" or a shill or kike, because i like stacking. but there are things i want to say about stacking, without it
and if you would look out for yourselves too

precious metals are great, and doing things is good. even those fantasies of societal collapse is good. just be responsible and look our for yourself, or something

>>50415329
Can you post your stack?

>>50417365
Coins are listed under collectables on the ato website, which is an asset that attracts CGT
They also say bullion coins are collectables if their value exceeds their face value and they are traded at a price above the spot
So technically they are subject to CGT, but whos to know if you actually own any gold?

>>50414570

Hope you get a job soon and start stacking. God bless.

I would still order from them - they responded.

Ah right, reading the website now.

https://www.ato.gov.au/Individuals/Capital-gains-tax/List-of-CGT-assets-and-exemptions/

Okay, let's say then that I bought a bunch of silver coins valuing just below 500 bucks, and sold them all off as they rose in value. Would I have to pay the gains tax on the difference if I lumped all the silver coins together and sold it as one lot? Or could I get away with listing them as "99 individual coins" and not have to pay CGT on them because I paid less than 500 for them?

>>50417832
Even if I can't make much money I'll still buy one because they look nice.

Just had to give the guy address/show ID etc so if it turns out I’m a purse snatcher he’s covered. He’s a silver/gold trader though not some back ally dude.

You’ll get less than the value, cos like pawn stars they need to make a profit buying and holding it. Just find something you agree on price wise

silver is literally just a 10% upgrade from copper for 300x the price for most applications. There are a few specific chemical usages, but other than that it's copper++. Redditors don't understand this and just parrot their memes about muh-bacteria and heat/electric transfer when copper is better at anti-bacteria and only 6-10% worse on the other 2 fronts. Silver isn't even a noble medal, it turns black just by being exposed to air for extended periods of time.

Don't buy the reddit-mineral men, or just buy a suicide stack and stop. I get that your brain thinks the potential gains are higher getting more smaller items but you're putting a price ceiling in your head for the other metals. We are talking about the 1 of a kind magic properties that these elements have that give them value -- not just a mirror finish and "muh shiny". I can buff a piece of aluminum and it'll be silver-colored too.

Gold is cool too but remember that platinum is 30x rarer on the surface than gold and is way undervalued comparatively.

>>50419878
good to know but honestly it's not the price I'm worried about it's the tax office.

>>50419899
Which country you in? I didn’t fill anything out. Other than getting a Bank transfer for the money but it wasn’t a huge amount so I doubt it would flag anything.

The Frenmark survived the two weeks!
We did it leddit!

>>50419894
Just looking at the silver premiums it's a no brainer. And although platinum is rarer yes but it also has much fewer uses than gold, basically one use in automobile manufacturing, a use that is expected to die off in the future with electric cars. And also on top of that it's also very actively recycled if I remember correctly. It doesn't make much sense to buy it now unless you think they will find some other use for it in the future. But that's pure gambling and nobody that buys silver or gold is doing it to gamble.

>>50419922
Aus I figured I'd ask you since you replied to someone about the ato and capital gains tax. I just want to know if the transaction has to be tied to my name by law or something and if that means I haev to provide ID at a vendor. Or if I can get around it by trading peer to peer paid in cash.

>>50419990
>https://sprott.com/media/3017/figure-3-palladium-vs-platinum-uses.png

autocatalyst usage is only really for diesel(not going away any time soon), but they are adapting cars to use it because it's way cheaper than palladium(gasoline catty)

But I actually don't really care about the autocatalyst usage, I think that south africa will just implode eventually and since Russia is closed-off now there will be 2% supply or something like that

A cash sale is the easiest when hiding your shit, and it wont flag anything unless its over 10 grand when you deposit. Personally I would just keep it out of the bank, use it that way so there is less of a paper trail for your purchases
Places like pawn brokers require ID in order to keep them safe in case its stolen property, if they send that away even if it all goes smoothly I dont know

Nice boxes frens, what are the general dimensions?

>>50421216
Pic related are the measurements of mine, there also smaller models available too

Bought these for $62 shipped yesterday, 18th century American coin silver (~.900) 8.75" serving spoons, ought to weigh between 200-250 grams total. An OK deal but I have my eyes on a high quality ~4 kilogram tea set with platter today I might be able to snag for 1/3 of melt value, wish me luck bros.

>>50421289
