Yeah bedtime soon. Perchance dreamtime.

Newfag in terms of collecting silver, are foreign silver worth getting into? or are they harder to liquidate? Bought a few south korean silver coins but wanted to know If I should only buy silvereagles

[Anonymous No.28470889]

Silver is silver

[Anonymous No.28470923]

Buy any silver with the lowest price (except junk silver).

>south korean silver coins
I assume you're talking about the Chiwoo Cheonwang? Yes, you'll be able to sell them.
Coins minted by sovereign governments are recognizable anywhere.

[Anonymous No.28471657]

I think walking liberty half dollar junk coins are going to be the bees knees in the coming years. They are big enough, have nice designs, and will be sought after.
Morgans and peace dollars are soooo expensive compared to melt and I think walking liberties and maybe franklins will go the same way.

Last post then sleep. Foreign junk is actually fun to collect, but it's more niche. Newfags should (probably lol idk) stick to 1 ounce coins rounds and bars till they hit at least 100. You'll admire it, you'll watch videos, and your general knowledge and experience will grow.

That's what I'm getting at, you can't exactly buy experience and the odd percentages/metal content/purity of various junk out there over the ages is STAGGERING. Takes time to learn.

Good way to jump in though is to buy a tube of 50 merc dimes.

picrel is useful for your learnings. Nighty!

>>28472009
Is it possible to have too many mercs? I just love them. I have about 300oz of rounds and bars too but for a while now I've been buying mercs every friday from my LCS with whatever pocket money I have left over from the week, and now have about 400 mercs.

Daily Reminder that there are more than 2 metals
Inb4 COMEX shill. You can buy as much silver as you want

Chart depicts crustal abundance on LOGARITHMIC scale
Rarity + a decent number of applications = GUARANTEED GAINS no matter current price

>Yellow/PGEs are top-tier
>Blue/REMs are expensive because of low recyclability. However, new tech could ameliorate this like how Aluminum became dirt cheap to extract
>Red industrial metals are okay for owning stonks

PHYSICAL TIER LIST V4
>S
- Iridium - 2nd rarest, relatively low price, 2x last 2 years, still discovering uses
- Rhodium - automobiles, 10x last 2 years; however may be lower in future as cars become electric
>A
- Osmium - rarest, 1/3 the cost of Iridium, still discovering uses
- Rhenium - automobiles, aerospace, reasonably low price
- Ruthenium - electronics, aerospace, & medicine
- Silver - low cost, incoming COMEX default pump, many applications, widespread use
>B
- Gold - ultimate store of wealth, eternal, stable value
- REMs - rare because of low recyclability, good but few applications
>C
- Platinum - GOING UP!
- Palladium - volatile price yet minimal gains
- Indium - equal rarity to silver, electronics
>D
- Mercury - hard to get acquire/hold, fewer applications due to toxicity
- Bismuth - various applications, pretty

That's cool. I like flipping my gold and silver coins idly like twiddling my thumbs. Sort of like stress ball or something
