>Yes, that's my issue with gold. Gold is valuable because high level kikes decided it would be the standard. While silver is valuable because it actually does stuff. I can't help it, it's my practical mind who always have the last word in my brain.

I completely understand where you are coming from because I had a very similar pattern of thinking (Unfortunately I own a larger % of silver than gold right now). Practically, logically... silver should be the winner based on the facts, assuming they are true. Idealistically we all want silver to win because it's the underdog and money of the people. Symbolically silver reaching near parity with gold would mean a triumph of truth and justice and the death of lies and manipulation. It's a good story and one would hope after all the financial suffering that is going to occur there would be some silver lining to it all.

Unfortunately I don't see it playing out that way anymore because I believe this move to a commodity based money will be under the control of the same people that caused the destruction and manipulation of the last system. Whoever has the gold makes the rules and it does not benefit the ones in power to allow true price discovery of metals. This manipulation will continue because after the coming financial trauma, the populace of every country will be begging for some solution and they will accept whatever is presented because they will not be in any position to challenge it due to their economic vulnerability. The rollout of the new system will be so swift and global that it will seem like it was the natural thing to do and the good thing to do.

If you believe the power of the financial elite will be constrained by this transition then its reasonable to believe silver might escape their manipulations but I suspect this transition will only make them more powerful, wealthy and capable.

The capsule is a CoinSafe RC-39-2. No it does not fit well, the depth of the coin is too large for the capsule to close leaving a fingernail thickness gap. My primary concern with the CoinSafe capsule is that it is allowing more air in because it can't close all the way but the seal appears tight (very hard to pry apart with fingers). Maybe I should try a water test on a capsule to get a better idea of what is going on. If I had to do it over again I would consider the Air-Tite X6D which has the proper depth but those capsules are huge in diameter and depth compared to the CoinSafe one.

intaglio doesn't charge tax but they only sell silver and sometimes high premium gold. Every couple of production runs they sell reject rounds at $3-4 over spot. Your LCS might not charge tax.

Silver bug series is unmatched. 2oz coin with minor premiums and relief comparable to coins 2-3x in price. Very hard to buy new ones cuz intagalio is too busy making alien rounds.

This thread is going to be super comfy. I can just feel it.
