How high will silver go before /biz/ buys it?

>>1352653

were do i buy silver?

>>1352653
silver is really tricky, i hope your guess is right, been holding my silver for a looooong time and refuse to sell it unless i make +20%. would it be possible for silver to go up to 50 just like it did five years ago ?

>>1352874
sadly you are kinda late on the ride, but you can buy silver through the bank which i do not recommend, or through a website like bordergold, search for silver/gold stores in your area.

>>1352874
My new favorite is jmbullion.com

And you're not even close to late

Normies have literally no gold or silver, kek

Is it best to buy physical silver ?

>>1352977
Yeah dude of course, don't you want to hold it yourself?

>>1353003
I do ,just wondered what everyone else is doing,not buying yet though,hoping the price goes back down.

>>1353006
It wont go back down and if it does, it wont likely affect the premium you pay over it so you will end up paying the same now or tomorrow if it goes down tomorrow etc

>>1352876
It will go way higher than 50. below 360 I am not even thinking about selling.

I also bought a bunch of gold/silver/mineral mining shares and they have been doing quite alright.

>>1353176
solid work. you buy those mostly aorund the same time?

>>1353181
bought them all within a 2-3 day period, some are just exploration companies at the moment but they are legit, so the instant they do find gold, they will skyrocket 10 fold

I dont hold any precious metals but in the uk we have the gold/silver brittania coins which are capital gains exempt so any profit i make wont be taxed but to buy 1 coin with VAT added costs £30 and at this very moment if i was to sell the same coin on the same website id get £15 for it so if i bought some coins id need at least a 16% increase in price to break even plus id have to send the coins via recorded delivery to sell them which could cost something like £5

Am i looking at this wrong? whats the best strategy here? im willing to buy and hold long term.

>>1353237
I got my maths wrong on the percentage,sorry im retarded.

>>1353237
WTF their spot value is double the price of the coin?

>>1353272
Its something like £30 for a 1oz silver Brittannia with VAT added ,I think the Brittannia is more expensive than most coins because it's classified as legal tender so capital gains tax free ,but like I say I don't really know what I'm talking about and I've always been unsure as to what the best way of investing in silver/gold is so never bothered

I really want to buy more silver now

>>1353281
fucking VAT eh, that's retarded, does it matter what countries coin you buy?

Im glad I bought about 110 ounces since January. I bought some Silver Eagles and Perth Mint Kangaroos before the Brexit, 30 of each, and it's nice to see the prices start to jump so quickly. I was planning on holding onto the coins for a long while, but if things break 35, I might dump them. Silver hit as high as 45 for a while a few years back, so I don't think it's insane to believe that it might bounce back to a similar price point.

My question is, I have a little over $3k to play with but it is cash in a robinhood account right now. Should I trade SLV on Robinhood or withdraw the cash and buy bullion? If I trade SLV there is no premium above spot from a dealer and no commission. I can also buy about $1,000 in bullion on top of it for $4k total in silver and silver ETFs. Or is there some real value to having the hard stuff that I am not seeing?

I will probably buy some SLV in my ROTH either way.

>>1353310
Dont buy paper silver

>>1353319
But, why not?

>>1353319
because in a crisis you don't physically hold it and how do you know if the silver even exists, I know for a fact that gold is oversold 100 times for every piece of it that actually exists.

>>1353331
>>1353327
replied to wrong comment

>>1353331
I understand that, I know that as well. There are a few good documentaries that go through that exact problem and discuss the issue. My point is if I am just trying to invest in it, for a few months or years, why no buy paper? I am not making things with it, I don't need the physical bullion for other reasons. I just want to make money on it. Are there real tangible reasons to have the bullion barring a possible currency collapse and using silver and gold to trade?

My MAIN concern is I can buy SLV Tuesday whereas I could only buy about $1,000 in bullion before then and I would have to wait for funds to settle before I could buy another $3k in bullion which if the cost of silver continues to rise, would mean less profit in the end. Trading silver, I could get in 'now'.

>>1353345
Meant to say 'trading paper' at the end.

>>1353345
Just hope that you sell before everyone comes knocking to cash in their silver when prices skyrocket. Otherwise you're fucked. That's all I can tell you

>>1352653
Bought some 3 weeks ago

>>1353237
Ha i have britanias and they are some of the cheapest government bullion in the usa

>>1353354
That's why I am considering trading paper, that way I don't need to worry about that as much. I can also sell it more readily than finding time to go to the silver and gold dealer.

>>1353378

Pawnshop/metals buyer here

Best option for silver is first, hitting up your local banks and looking for half-dollar rolls. You aren't likely to find any pre-1964 at this rate, but 1965-1970 Kennedys are still out there in some small abundance (40% silver.) It's 'free' in that if you don't find anything, you haven't lost anything.

Next, check out your local pawn shops. Folks like me usually sell at a lower premium than online retailers. Don't EVER buy at more than a 5% or 6% premium, and always be sure you know exactly what you're buying. Don't trust anyone who won't let you throw the coin/bullion you're buying on a scale.

Next, online. JM Bullion is good, as is Monarch Precious Metals. You're always going to be able to find whatever you want on higher end guys like APMEX, but you'll pay for that in higher premiums and shipping. Finally, avoid any and all companies that shill on TV or on radio (especially Republican talk radio.) Monex, Goldline, and their ilk have stupidly high premiums, have been known to bait and switch, and have actually been cited by the FTC for fraud. When Glenn Beck won't do business with you because you're a scumbag, that says something.

Finally, go to your local coin shops, jewelers, and the like. Some may have deals, but you'll normally pay through the nose.

One wildcard out there: eBay. You can sometimes get terrific deals. Most times, prices (pre-shipping) and premiums are the same as my shop, but combined with shipping it will be much higher.

Anyone know where I can buy silver in Canada?

GTA area?

I dont really want to pay for shipping from the US like Apmex

I had a bunch of free trades when I signed up, but otherwise its 10 bucks a trade. I bought these based on info that my friend pays for, some of these are potential "10 baggers"
Also was new to trading at the time and I just wanted to spread my portfolio out over a bunch of them in case that some never went anywhere because they were exploration companies at the time of purchase with no actual mining being performed yet.
If I had more capital I'd feel better at spreading it the way I did if I didnt have the free trades at the time.
If that makes sense

Numismatic coins very rarely lose all of their value. Especially proofs and proof sets. While you may not hit above retail you will definitely be able to recoup 75% to 85% of the value and will have something that will retain value if spot crashes.

>>1358717
well, its not that bad. When I started buying silver I did the same thing, but as I accumulated more I realized that 1 oz goverment minted coins always keep their mark-up, and the mark-up actually increases too

So when I needed cash once I sold the plain bars I had and since then have accumulated pretty much only silver and gold eagles, a maple leaf gold coin, some chinese pandas, etc.. All government minted

The only exception was when I got these pirate coins (pic related) because I wanted some fap material in my bullion collection

So no, I wouldn't cancel an order and pay a fee to do so, also, silver has gone up 1% since you made that order depending when you clicked buy

Well correct me if I am wrong, "Numismatics" are rare coins of limited edition,

But "Numismatic Value" mark-up over spot

A silver eagle isn't a "numismatic" but it has a numismatic value of $3 or so dollars over spot

>>1358962
Go to APMEX, Provident Metals, or even Ebay and look at older libertads.

I am looking at Provident Metals right now and 1983 libertad is 27.38
1985 and 1986 is 29.48
1987 is 70.53
1988 is 85.53

APMEX has more, with coins from the 90s being expensive but I dont want to type them out.

I guess its random but libertads can, over time, gather a semi numismatic value.

If you understand what I mean.

>selling collections
Dunno, i'm not selling anyway. It's still a nice feeling of having something good.

What about these estate sale coin collections you see on Ebay? Is this just a bunch of bullshit?

They make it out like you're buying a bunch of moderately rare silver coins and offer guarantees on getting some decent collectables. In reality it looks like they're selling 90% silver coins that work out to be nearly 30% over the spot price of silver per oz.

Example:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/HUGE-ESTATE-SALE-LOT-90-SILVER-GOLD-OLD-US-COINS-QUARTER-POUND-LB-BULLION-80-/321705091897?hash=item4ae71e2339:g:RPQAAOSw2XFUZlBy

I already have 50oz in bars that i bought at $17 but I wouldn't mind owning more. However some of the spreads over the counter are a bit obscene. 10%+ on spot minimum

where to buy silver in Australia?
I have 6 oz so far but they're all from numismatic coins

>>1359705
You can buy from Perth mint. The more you buy the smaller the premium.

Fair enough, and A$450 is extremely high for that coin. US it's retailing for about $300 (A$400,) assumed your mother paid about that. Mia culpa.

>>1356156
That is a negative. Numismatics are among the best investments for keeping and expanding wealth, simply because the coins don't exist anymore. That's why copper 1943 pennies go for $80k each. I don't know about you, but an 800 million percent increase is pretty fucking huge.

Good luck with that. It's not going to be anything over 50k when they NEED at least 170k to keep up

>give us an idea if the fed will up interest rates

You're fucking stupid if you think this is a possibility

silver-to-go
make sure you are ordering a good couple of ounces to keep your premiums low

>Silver in bars and coins, gold and gemstones in jewelry
none of that will be worth shit in in a SHTF situation

Someone will want toilet paper over some metal

140 tOZ of Silver
0.54 tOZ of Gold

not all of it is pictured though. I have some numismatic pieces in another box but I can't be bothered to take a picture of them


I have a spreadsheet that I keep track of everything on, but it's incomplete because I still haven't put purchase price on it

I remember when the feds said they were going to raise rates a few week backs and gold price took a shit and all my stock gains went to zero. Literally 2 days after that my stocks were back up higher than they were before they took a dump. Raising rates isnt possible.

lads would it be a good time to invest in silver now that i've missed it when it was 13.00

or should I wait for a drop in price

>>1364888
Wait. It'll probably dip again soon, silver is very volatile.

>>1364515
physical precious metals and gems have had value since the beginning of time and will continue to hold value no matter what.

because there will always be somebody with enough of something to trade for it

>>1365015
except for diamonds, that market is a monopoly and they're artificially kept valuable by limiting the supply.

>Silver in bars and coins
For speculation plays and as a liquid hedge against inflation.
>gold and gemstones in jewelry
This is for SHTF. In an immigration event, you have to declare bars and coins to your new accepting government. However, you can claim jewelry has sentimental value (keepsakes, heirlooms, etc.) to keep it from being confiscated by your new accepting government, allowing you to transfer some of your wealth without filthy jew hands ever touching it.

It's for getting out of dodge when SHTF, not for bugging in and getting through SHTF.
