  5. Any US junk silver is smart, it's still legal tender. When silver rises to it's true value, dimes and quarters will be more useful for common purchases. Halves and dollars will be for bigger commerce.
    I was told by a PM trader that there is more gold than silver. I am wondering what he knows that I can't find on line. Is it true? These days, anything is possible.

    1. True Story... Still legal tender, and the easiest/simplist way for an underground economy to get started, when the CBDC's Schitt the Bed.

  8. Watch who you buy from. The Chinese make knockoffs. They even make knockoffs of non-silver coins, including my all-time fav, the Indian head penny.

  9. Monthly, for more than 2 years now, I have been purchasing "junk silver" from this place:
    https://www.jmbullion.com/

    Dimes, Quarters, Halves, and Dollars, from US Mints.
    Free shipping for purchases over $200.
    Silver is HEAVY.

    1. I use them also, and haven't had any kind of problem with them. The "junk" is the best deal, but they also sell 5kg bars if you roll that way. Or for the ultimate in granularity, there is silver shot (roughly 1/4" beads).

    2. JM Bullion is good. SDBullion.com also top notch. APMex.com best selection but higher premium

    3. Interesting. JMBullion and SDBullion have nearly identical web pages. Are they just two sides of the same coin?
