Silver is outperforming BTC right now and all people can talk about is that scam coin.

>>18930396
Cope harder dude. BTC & Gold is the winning combo. Both have fully recovered. Silver is down big still.

>>18930396
>goes up 20 cents
>next day goes back down 20 cents
repeat for the next year until hyperinflation kicks in

>>18930475

Silver was down for two years in 2008 before it outpaced gold. Exercise a modicum of patience. In 2020, BTC will be worth as much as a penny stock. >>18928234

>>18930475
Exactly, you buy the undervalued asset then get gold when the gold/silver ratio normalizes.

30 oz of silver, setting my sights on some gold ducats next.

>>18930657
This strategy works with paper metals. The prices for physical will go back to normal when it goes back to $17-18. 1 ASE will be the same price as it is now from an online dealer.

Do you not keep your silver in a sour patch kids tin?

I cashed out my 401k and bought 35 thousand dollars of gold, silver, guns, ammo and a safe back in 2015. Would do it all over except I would not buy the numismatic shit. Just straight gold because I feel like the gold dealer is gonna fuck me in the future when I decide to sell

Common law states that any rivers or creeks may be walked like 3 yards in.

I have a lot of creeks near me & even a small transportable canoe.

>>18933676
comparison

>>18934233
all you need to do is look around on the banks, digging material from the bottom of the creek usually isn't as effective as gold is heavy and gets washed off your shovel as it comes to the surface.

>>18934522
I'll try being active on these threads from now on with you.

I tend to have 3 days a week off, but am hoping to break into Realestate soon. That said this can certainly yield a trade like skill & ensure another form of income with long term investment or rapid wealth if done correctly.

I dont think anyone goes into this without wanting to be in nature more & experiencing the hunt let alone actually enjoying small creeks.

>>18931327
I got a 2 pesos gold coin coming in the mail today.

>>18934931
Being a prospector means you are a jack of all trades. It yields skills that float over into surprising areas.

As something you should know, most of the gold you will be finding will be very small particles, however there have been cases where these particles were surprisingly concentrated, do lots of research about your local areas geology, look up gold rushes near by. work from there.

Opinion on vrenelis?

>>18934705
Just out of interest pan fella, how many ounces do you have to find to call it a good year?

>>18935096
thats that coarse gold

YOU KNOW WHAT IM GONNA SAY

>>18935525
best year hand mining was 70 ounces. I hit a wide crack on bedrock in an ancient high channel and worked it for the whole season. Really really nice gold.

Best day of panning was on McDame Creek sniping on bedrock, I got I think just over an ounce in 40 minutes.

My last season was basically a failure in my opinion, I couldnt properly work, water was too high and I couldn't access my claims until half way through the season. I still got about 20 ounces though for my troubles.

>>18935096
I am aware that you're typically finding specs at a time. I have people friends who asked if they could set up a small smelting area at my property with whatever copper I had & they had just to smelt for eventual SHFT or when copper spikes again.

Do you smelt/process your own gold?
With that said its one step at a time here, like getting the equipment & getting out there & doing it.
But yeah I can look at some geography records. I know Michigan has a huge amount of copper toward the north, but I've not heard of a gold rush.

>>18935618
Sounds like good work if you can get it. I'm a bong so, you know, all treasure in the earth belongs to the lizard queen.

>>18935618
>70 ounces
>Gold per oz as of date
>$1,712.95
That's about 119,906.50 without including your costs in the process of digging or what the buyer is paying you. That's great.

>>18935822
>Sounds like good work if you can get it. I'm a bong so, you know, all treasure in the earth belongs to the lizard queen.
They take any gold you pan? I didn't think it was that extreme honestly.

>>18935724
I don't usually smelt my own bullion unless I am doing assay work on hard rock ore that I am testing. Most companies buying flake gold want it as flake gold, either for jewellery other reasons.

There is a massive copper belt in Michigan ending at Royal Island in lake Superior, one of the strangest mysterys of the US. Almost 10 million pounds of copper are missing from the island, after European explorers discovered hundreds of ancient mines. No one knows where the copper went, but recently samples of copper ingots discovered in the mediterranean have been discovered to match this missing ore. Gold does appear near royal island, and nugget gold has been found mixed in glacial material all over the region.

>>18935822
There have been some very interesting gold nuggets found in Scotland and Cornwall by Canadian and British snipers. Never hurts to look, especially if no one cares your digging.

Good to know. I've only ever seen traders turn in flake gold.

>There is a massive copper belt in Michigan ending at Royal Island in lake Superior, one of the strangest mysteries of the US. Almost 10 million pounds of copper are missing from the island
Talking to the quire on that one sir. I'm pretty aware of a lot of the anomalies here & the midwest. Can't say Im an expert, but I follow the fringe news pretty closely on that stuff. Weird stuff happens in Michigan history & new discoveries among the community happens once in a while.

We could go into a lot detail in such dicoveries, but they would ban us off to /x/ instead of /pol/ or /his/. We tend to get mocked for pointing out these discoveries & theories. I'm not going to talk about this again unless I find something odd on the trails.

>>18936049
Fuck off with your perfectly reasonable price targets faggot

Silver $1000 EOY BOYS

>>18936099
I'm aware of the London River having a small search group on the banks & having to always turn their finds in. I'm also aware of the archaeological finds given over to the crown.

There's benefits to this system like ensuring that history is written correctly, but when the history is suppressed & manipulated you no longer wish to hand over anything you find.

Lastly, handing over artifacts is one thing.
Handing over raw ore you harvest is another thing & tyrannical.

Do i take the trade? I'm trading 92oz of generic silver and 8oz of coins for 2 1/2oz goold eagles

Interesting. I'm in the arse end of southeast England so it looks like the closest areas where gold has been found is at least 250 miles away. Might be worth a punt when I'm back in Wales though.

>>18936503
who knows, so little of English mining lore still exists today, there could be gold all over the place and no one knows it.

>>18936388
They make you pay a licence fee to go fishing here, let alone panning. And they enforce it too, little clipboard wankers pacing the river banks looking for people to spot-fine.

>>18936503
I've seen a documentary of an older English woman from the 90's possibly where she just hops into a river in an urban area & starts collecting gold from her pan within minutes.

There's still an active community in England doing it I am sure just by remembering the documentary off the top of my head.

>>18936572
One of those links you shared mentioned a book some bloke has written documenting gold mining in Britain. I'll have to check it out.

I know Wales has a few found deposits but other than that, there's not much in public knowledge.

>>18936633
and see this is why I live here, I have hundreds of kilometers of wilderness to wander through with no shit heads in my way.

>>18936639

Nah. Welsh gold is a royal thing, mostly. Super rare and a shit load more expensive than generic gold.

>>18937380
gold eagles have some copper so I can't do that

>>18937453
>cant bend a wee bit of copper
I bet you cant even bench 600lbs

>>18937453
Bring a real one with you and compare side by side. Or just buy from a reputable shop or dealer. Not worth saving a few percent if you're concerned about getting a fake. I only buy from reputable dealers.

Gold went up today. Think we're gonna plateau again, drop a little, or is it finally going to be the golden moon reckoning we know is coming down the pipe?

>>18937721
Im trading 100oz for the 1oz is gold, he’s nailing first and is providing receipts. I’m not sure if that’s proper proof tho

>>18937105
[confused]

>>18937869
definitely not moon yet. Plateau or drop maybe 50/50

>>18937894
Sounds too sketchy to me. I wouldn't do it. Just keep your silver and save up to buy some gold. It's a good idea to have both and now is NOT the time to sell your silver for gold.

>>18935618
Can you post pics of some cleanups. How do you store the gold when mining? Do you cast your own bars?

>>18938424

>>18935531
https://youtu.be/59j0qw0L6UA you can find gold in Switzerland's sewers, don't tell pajeets this!

>>18937894

wouldnt do that if i was you famalam. taking a 2000$ risk (all your silver gone in case the gold is fake) to make an extra 200$ or so on the trade

>>18938424
I don't think Gold will ever go lower then did in March for a long time. Confidence in the eternal bullmarket has never taken a greater hit then this in recent memory, and owners of said Gold and Gold stocks will have this on the mind for years afterwards.

>>18931130
Nice stack you go there! I also have a couple of coins featuring creepy creatures who suck the life essence out of smaller beings for nourishment

Few of these came in the mail today.

>>18938699
Checked. Nice, how much were they? I've been snooping around for some

>>18938699
Think I paid around $35 or so. I picked some more up cheaper today, ebay has plenty.

>>18930311
Im in colorado, got all the shit including a slueice but I cant get anything worth too much since I cant dredge. Also tons of flour gold and worried Im losing it out of sluice or pan

>>18938586
Well the idea is that I would be able to verify first bc he’s mailing

>>18938909
i suppose if you could verify first, but something about the transaction doesn't add up. why would some1 mail you gold on the chance that you never send them the silver? also why would they sell their gold for less than what it's worth? surely they could go to a local coin shop and get spot for it or trade it for silver? why are they taking so much risk?

>>18938770
Cool, I wasn't sure what a good rate on them was, the prices are all over the place

>>18938450
I have a bunch of simple gold photos but for the longest time I didnt carry a cell phone or camera. I was working, and wasnt on the internet much.

After a cleanup I usually will roast my gold to remove local mercury from the flakes, than i would put it in a plastic vial and hide it. No most companies when you go to sell ore gold want it as natural as possible. I ll sell my flakes to one guy, the nuggets to another than keep any interesting pieces for myself.

>>18938984
Agreed. Something feels off about this. Not worth the risk.

>>18938842
if your worried about loosing gold, lower your water speed and volume / material volume going through the sluice.

If I am dealing with very fine gold, I ll double pan the material and redo it a few times, than keep the remaining concentrates to play with over the winter.

Have you tried bedrock sniping? Thats where I ve done best.

>>18939053
Do you know of any resources to figure out where I could pan/snipe in the southwest US? Never done it, but it sounds like a ton of fun. I own lots of physical metal and mining shares, but actually finding it sounds like a blast.

>>18939053
well if i lower water speed it wont clean out the sluice.
what do you use to snipe? how do you get deep enough?
any success mining culverts?

>>18938984
because I have a reputation and selling history, The GS Ratio is 113, and we are settling for 100. He was a dumb boomer who couldn't navigate reddit and is just trying to get a silver position, probably bc the GS ratio being so high, but he's a stupid boomer and didn't account for the fact that the stack i'm giving him is generics

>>18930311
Got any info on Oklahoma? Not thinking there's much gold in our red dirt shit but you never know. Used to pan for gold when I was a kid in Colorado with some luck

>>18939122
heres a handy site.
https://www.desertusa.com/desert-prospecting/where-to-find-gold.html

>>18939192
what angle is your sluice at? what kind of material are you running through it? are you classifying the material before putting it through the sluice?

For sniping, Get a pry bar and a bent screw driver, or any other hooked tool to scrape deep into cracks and crevises. Use kitchen spoons to help clean out the tops of cracks, there just the right shape for the job. Yes I ve had great successes with digging culverts, the old corrugated steel ones are the best.

>>18939260
Oklahoma doesn't have much mate, but you have that same blue gray clay silt material that much of the US has, glacially moved gold is locatable in it, but its mostly microscopically small.

>>18938622
I'm pretty certain $1550 is the lowest it can go with a major stock market crash

Everyone saw what happened in 2008 so even big players will be waiting in the wings to scoop up on some minor discount

if you think we dont have fishing loicenses here youre in for a big surprise my dude

>>18937339
you could do a density test but some faggot on here is going to start REEEEEing about tungsten even though tungsten in coins is extremely rare and would probably cost more to produce than the gold is worth and would look like shit

There's always a buyer, fren. Question is, are they buying at your price?

>>18937894
i think i saw you on reddit silver

Just got my dos pesos coin, tiniest gold coin I've owned so far, about the size of a milk chocolate m&m in diameter. Pretty neat, only a 30% premium lmfao. Seems to be that way for any pms you buy online right now, in other news though I got 1$ constitutional silver from my lcs for 10$ today.

Just got my first 1oz gold bar and 10oz silver bar today. Am I gonna make it?

>>18939769
No.

>>18931321
>>18939769
Its a good start.

>>18939666
okay satan thanks for the tip

>>18930365
The western UP has a lot of mineral wealth including gold and silver.

I know of a volcano that has huge deposits of nuggets surrounding it. It's in a pretty underdeveloped and dangerous nation though. Any anons want to go?

>>18939755
Smaller the coin, higher the premium. It's barely worth going under a quarter ounce.

>>18940042
love this channel, wish gold was that easy to find.

>>18940042
That is the most retarded channel ive ever seen. So many views.

>>18940082
Pretty sure ive reverse engineered the location from some background plants and things they let slip. My concern is that they are faking it for the views like many of the other nugget channels. If so they do a reallll good job of it. But a quick cut here or there and they could shove some bronze "nuggets" in the hole and then find it lol.

>>18940088
Go on, im listening..

>>18940212
Also the location is half blurred out on google maps, but not on bing heheheh

>>18930311
Alright I've done some research and know that people have had success in Llano river, however I've heard that baby head mountain has some finds as well. Know of any other places in Texas preferably by DFW?

>>18939306
Has being in prospecting ever gotten you laid? I can see chicks digging the masculinity factor it brings, here in the age of the soiboi.

>>18940051
I like the novelty, if I could have at least 10 of these small gold coins I'd be satisfied.

Imagine pouring buckets of paydirt with her all day in a river and after a long day she makes love with you, right there in the river.

>>18937782
You should throw a dos pesos gold coin in one of the grab bags totally unexpected, you do that you will get customers for life.

>>18940212
It is fake as fuck. They aren't pulling out $50,000 nuggets.

>>18940212
if for sure faked, I recognize the way they made the nuggets. cast lead plus copper + yellow gold spray paint.

Its almost as bad as the russian guys who had nuggets sitting in beaches on a creek lol. Gold never shows up on surface like that unless its on bedrock.

>>18940776
Never been to that part of the world but let me do some further research, problem is I cant access a lot of the USGS reports as I am not in the US.

>>18941334
Also a lot of fake metal detecting videos online too.

I rescued a cute geologist chick a while ago. She drove her company truck into what she thought was a turn around and sank up to the axles in mud. She freaked out because she was out of radio range, it was october and she thought she was going to have to walk back in the dark. I picked up her call on my radio and gave her a ride back to camp. Had a fun relationship going,spent a lot of time together by atlin but she moved on back to australia and I was busy working here. Still keep in touch though.

>>18939306
how far down before its bedrock? im in granite and i classify to like thrid of an imch

>>18941355
depends on the locations, the aussie miners get lucky a lot more than us north americans because of how the gold is in the ground there. but yes there are a lot of bull shit channels out there for sure.

if its solid rock your in bedrock, keep looking for cracks filled with silt and gravel, gold likes to hang out at the bottom.

>>18941437
What the fuck, and you got to do all this in a town with this kind of view??

>>18941566
yep Atlin's paradise but so horribly remote in the winter. Lovely people but again way to hard to live there year round. Wells BC, Stewart and Mayo are the same.

>>18941641
You have it made pan man, too bad you don't own any LINK.

Just ordered a perth mint 1oz gold bar.
Puts me at about 120oz silver I think, and 1.5oz gold.

>>18941667
i would get into cypto but its just such a gamble. I mean what I do for a living is a gamble, but its an educated gamble. With crypto I feel like i am playing a game I wasnt told all the rules too and the dealers behind a wall ringing his hands.

>>18941354
If you need access let me know I can share that info if need be.

>>18941781
try this, mindat has some info on the area i think https://www.mindat.org/loc-9986.html looks very promising.

God revealed to me that LINK will bring great returns anon, you should go all in.

>>18941960
your telling me to go all in on a digital currency with a history of volatility with only limited back ground knowledge?

I mean fuck it I could put a few hundred in and see what happens but I might forget about it for a few years like i did with that bit coin.

@Pan Man I'm that San Diego anon you helped out a few days ago. I'm thinking of heading out to Julian with my sluice and metal detector.

33°03'58.2"N 116°33'12.2"W

How do you go about finding specific public areas that might be good? I've gone a few dozen times and learned some about how to find decent dirt once I'm in an area (bedrock, iron rich sediment bands, moss, etc.). But I'm pretty autistic so going into town and asking around would get me arrested, but so will trespassing.

Also what's your general impression of hobby clubs, are they worth it to start for getting a handle on bigger equipment and faster learning?

>>18942000
Get 100 of them at least.

>>18938755
let me do you one better

>>18942016
i would start with the local facebook prospecting groups, they can help usually get your bearings. The hobby clubs are usually full of boomers, but everyone loves to share info and ideas.

Try looking around on thediggins.com for areas that arent claimed. i think theres a map layer on that site that shows private land too.

As for places to look for better gold, look for where bedrock, boulders and the water slow down. These points, especially around hard bends, tend to have the best near surface placer gold. Keep looking mate! your in the right area with the right idea!

>>18942026
fuck it I ll look at it tonight.

Sd anon here too. Im about to order some pans off amazon and have been scoping out julian on google earth.

>>18938755
These Atlantic mints are so good.
Theyre just selling as is regular single once peices though, so I can't justify purchasing them.

I calculated that we will see at least a silver to gold ratio of 25:1 once the world gets back to it's older monetary standard, when the gold window closed gold was being traded for $35 dollars an ounce, which in silver American currency is about 25 ounces of silver. That would put silver at about $68

>>18942374
Are you saying silver spot will hit $68

>>18942392
At some point, the dollar amount doesn't really matter, the ratio does.

>>18942278

Im about to start my own fake nugget channel and sell cheap detectors and pans for the affiliate cash myself.

>>18942432
its a good racket, but the actual experts will call your shit out if your not careful

>>18942328
I haven't tried anything down here yet at all. But I was in LA for a few years and even up pretty far in the mountains there was just so much sediment, could never get down to bedrock. I think it's a function of having no rain to wash anything away.

Anyone know why silver is pumping so hard today?

>>18942374
what of instead gold corrects to 225 instead and the 1 to 15 ratio is back

>>18942432
Twenty four karat magic in the aiiiiiiiiiiiiiir

>>18942741
ah man thats the dream right there. just have it sitting on surface, no digging required.

>>18942723
Then I'll buy a good amount of it.

>>18942710
Sales are just up most likely anon. I don't think its got anything else to make it shift.

What are your guys thoughts on copper rounds? It's nice to have rounds of silver from mints, but you're paying for the minting and nothing more.

You can strip some cords within a day & have about 10 ones just doing it by hand let alone with am electric stripper.

>>18942900
You just answered your own question.

>>18942900
If you are interested in copper just buy shares of the big copper miners. If you had any significant amount of copper you'd need a fucking warehouse to store it. If you want a copper round or bar for a gimmick, sure, but if you seriously buy it and stack it you're a fucking idiot.

>>18942741
actually sometimes it is that easy. The Turnagain Nugget was discovered by a group of prospectors trying to find shelter in a fall snow storm in the high country. Alice Shea, hid behind a boulder to keep warm when she spotted this nugget stuck between the two rocks behind her.

Jeeeeeeeeeesus

>>18942900
no point copper is a heavy industry metal and measured in pounds / tons. we produce tons of copper, and the US is expected to increase copper out put by 20% in the coming years.

>>18943022
what is that chonker worth? What does it weigh? What an absolute unit.

Could you just imagine? That's like finding a house on the ground.

>>18942977

>>18943063
51.5 ounces, its in the private mineral collection in Victoria BC. No idea what it would be worth now, but similar sized nuggets from BC went for 75k last year.

>>18943086

That would only happen if there were a daily inflation rate of 10% or something crazy like that. Other than that situation, people will just trade their metals for the local currency to make purchases as needed. It's much more convenient.

>1Surely there is a vein for the silver, and a place for gold where they fine it. 2Iron is taken out of the earth, and brass is molten out of the stone. 3He sets an end to darkness, and searches out all perfection: the stones of darkness, and the shadow of death.

Silver hits 26 this summer. Then the deflationary bust hits. Fed increases balances sheet by 10s of trillions. Hyperinflation later this decade $300+ Silver. Cap it

>>18944905
Can you expand on your theory? Genuinely curious. Does silver crash with deflation or hold? I’m wargaming the next decade too.

the most based people are buying platinum right now

>>18931608

This junk silver be turning me on... I need moreeeee

>>18944999
But why?
> ID says war

>>18945323
undervalued, lot more rare than gold.

>>18944999
based trips. copped a plat elephant today for ~$890 before everything spiked. still have reservations about whether or not i should have just gone all in on silver (or just bought a plat 1oz bar for a bit cheaper) but it's a cool coin and it will help my batbois protecc my stack. never forgive, never forget.

>>18945336
It is harder to liquidate and the buy/sell spread is larger. I like platinum, too, but I own it by owning Sibanye-Stillwater which also has exposure to Palladium and Rhodium.

How am I doing lads, I've begun adding diamonds and sapphires to my stack as well.

Copper Chads report in! I keep my most precious coppers in capsules for extra protection

>>18945493
I hope you aren't paying much for that copper. It's $2.37/lb. It's not worth stacking. Just buy some Southern Copper or Freeport McMoran stock if you want copper exposure. Silver and Gold really are the only two worth stacking and always look for the lowest premiums over spot price.

>>18945456
>Sibanye-Stillwate
nice one, I like GroupTen and Platinum Group metals. Liquidation could be a problem, but i own mostly 1/4oz coins which are more liquid and higher premoum

>>18945565
I like them more and more. #1 platinum producer with huge palladium and gold production as well as a bit of rhodium. I think they are a great bet if you want leverage to all PGM in general. I just added to my position around $4.50 and it's already back to $7.75. I'm up over $1000 on that buy already.

>>18945493
I would 100% get rid of the diamonds. Copper is the worst meme I've ever seen in my life. Do people just not realize how plentiful it is in industrial use??? Crackheads literally break into abandoned buildings to steal copper out of the AC units and electrical systems and plumbing, why the fuck would you bother stacking it?????

>>18945626
yeah taking a look now, not usually keen on majors but good for diversification especially one of the few if only PGE one.

>>18945493
>Silver shot
No thanks. Get more stuff you can for sure resell like the eagles.

Copper stacking is the ultimate tell of a poorfag who can't even afford a modest amount of silver. It's not even a precious metal, it was never seen as a store of value or currency (besides fucking pennies, lol), and the increase of production has no end in sight.

>>18945548
I like how it looks and feels. Also wanted my treasure box to look full kek. About a dollar each. Considering buying a press and a few pounds to make custom coins like pic related mentions and tossing them up on etsy ebay and amazon to see what happens. Easy 100x? I could also cast them but that just seems like extra steps.


>>18945628
They are fake lmao, going to cast some silver jewelery someday if the price doesnt moon, diamonds and sapphires for pennies each was the perfect addition to my treasure chest.

>>18945763
Have you seen the premiums on poured silver? If he poured his own he could sell it for $22+ an ounce.

>>18945775
If you want to fill up your shit box you are better off buying 40% half dollars and war nickels.

Forgot the pic. Jeez so many copper haters. Dont worry i averaged my cost down by stripping the copper out of bird scooter motors guys.

i agree bullion coins are a bad stack the premiums are too high. but i stack copper pennies because its literally free. i just keep jugs of them, one day copper will go up again and i can sell them to a recycler to melt yeah who cares about the dumb unenforceable law that didnt stop any melters of silver coins the last 100 years

Checked

Do you have a chart for Silver anon?

>>18948477
No sorry I just take the projected fair value price for gold and divide conservative historic ratio

So if Gold is to go $11000 + as this chart would indicate
that tells me my silver value in today’s FMQ is $440 per oz conservatively
But obviously if Gold is recognised for the real money it is silver will probably go around $1000 oz in the current environment

>>18943343
How many ounces is this?
