For anyone calling op a retard I would like to point out that this small bag of pre 1965 quarters currently costs $1600 so its not like his thought process is completely unfounded.

That said OP you are a retard. Copper is a lot less valuable than silver rather than hoard nickles you would be better off sticking that money in an index fund or just buying silver.

I have a question about silver investments. A lot, and I mean A LOT of people say junk silver is a good type of silver to buy due to its cheapness...however I don't see that it's cheap at all. The pure .999 stuff is a lot fucking cheaper than the pre 1964 stuff and it takes a lot of junk silver to even make an ounce. Why do people say to invest in junk silver when I can just buy more refined newer silver that is a hell of a lot cheaper?
