Gotta say doesn't buying silver eagles at current prices seem kindof dumb? Sure any tax benefits from buying them is nice (Florida charges sales tax on all coins and bullion except for US currency unless you're buying over $500 worth as an example) but it doesn't seem to be that great of a deal for US silver.
>2022 silver eagle: Currently $35 on JMB (most local places are charging way more)
>one troy ounce of silver
>2006 silver proof set: Current grey sheet catalog price of $40
> 1.338 troy ounces
>an extra third of a troy ounce for only five dollars more, with much nicer looking coins
I guess the only real benefit is dealers are much more willing to buy a tube of silver eagles than they are a shitload of silver proof sets. But if you want US by weight are eagles so special?

>No shield, no more protection from foreign forces (see the border)
>No arrows, no military might (unless you count "I grew up with two moms" recruitment as strength)
>The whole branch of the government is seized by the eagle, to show we no longer are a free republic with balances but a mishmash of proxy structures that unanimously implement the rule of the fed and of ZOG
>The wing of the eagle is clipped, symbolizing our crippled state (or the nigh-mandatory circumcision culture we suffer, kek)
>The relief on liberty is now almost completely flat, just like the American dream being a mere facade
