If Teflon Don dies and has an estate sale with all his gold plated stuff will that lower the price of gold?

>>22996252

>>22996251
Thanks fren. I wonder why no one made any bread before me. It was almost an hr of no new bread.

My dad died not too long ago and he had a £1000ish metal detactor. How likely am I to find gold or silver with a metal detector in the UK or even just old coins and shit?
I don't really want to sell it but if it's got no use and it will just keep depreciating I may as well just sell it.

I know right, what a question. Not really the best place to ask I suppose.

>>22996272

kek if you had it you wouldn't be that stupid. it affects the lungs. I've had it and would compare it with a mild pneumonia.

The Netherlands is moving its entire central bank gold to another place tonight. What did they mean by this timing?

>>22996205
I asked this question in the last bread but worded it poorly and got misunderstood.
How common are counterfeit U.S. junk silver half dollars? If I buy then off eBay how likely am I to get scammed?

>>22996365
It means you should whale asap. I just got another 20 oz. Love the onzas.

>>22996408
nice

>>22996348
Sorry to hear about your dad fren. If he spent that much on a metal detector, I think you should at least learn how to use it then go out hunting for coins a few times and see if it’s for you. If you just flat out don’t like metal detecting you could always sell it then use that currency to buy PMs

Counterfeit junk is rare unless it is highly praised on pneumatics. I would not buy it on eBay because the chinese can send you chocolate silver, and you can not do anything about it.

Where my NAKchads @?

Are nitrile gloves safe to handle pure silver?

>>22996349
Getting over it as we speak. Had zero respiratory symptoms which the health department told me was the vast majority of current cases. I'm talking zero. I'm sure it can happen especially with older people, but it seems it did mutate to a less lethal form like they said

>>22996758


I don't really care desu. I use my own hands.

>>22996719
>Counterfeit junk is rare unless it is highly praised on pneumatics
Are you sure about that? I remember watching a JewTube video showing fake walking liberty halves from China, and they were all culls that has no numismatic value whatsoever

Just want to mention again to all the mining stock newbies, myself included, what I’ve learned from the PM industry experts like Rick Rule and David Morgan: junior miners will be one of the last things to move in a precious metals bull market, especially the silver juniors. So don’t fret if your mining portfolio seems initially to be unresponsive to increases in gold and silver prices. It will come.

>>22996758
silver isn't poison it wont hurt you. matter of fact it can purify you

>>22996808
Again. I do not trust ebay with junk silver. Read the next sentence. I am seeing silver on amazon, and avoid that as well.

>>22996788
I would rather use something to not get oils on the coins and I can get the blur nitrile very cheap from where I work. Just want to know if it is truly inert and won't react with the silver. There is no consensus when I read message boards online..

>>22996841
Shit, I was looking forward to buying a bunch of foreign silver on eBay to spice up my stack. Do you know of any reputable online dealers that sell foreign silver, like the 2 and 5 Reichsmark?

>>22996839

>>22996889 >>22996919
Niceee.
>>22996909
Idk fren. I never look for that stuff since I am prioritizing getting as much generic and junk possible until I hit around 1-2k oz of both.

>>22996719
>Counterfeit junk is rare
Wrong, I own a store and I've seen many fake 90% silver coins.

>>22996841
I agree with the not trusting ebay, but seriously? Who is going to counterfeit a coin that has .1-.3 troy oz of silver and then try and give it "natural" looking wear or patina? That is a whole lot of effort per coin. I would say constitutional is a safer bet then buying rounds from random sources on ebay

>>22996399
very common, Chinks counterfeit cents, so they can definitely counterfeit a 90% silver coin with a melt value of $18

>>22997004
You just need to look at Britains old money. Britain had millions of fake six pences, which had a weight of 2.8 grams. Where there's a will there's a way, if they could counterfeit 2.8 gram coins in the 1800s you can bet your ass the Chinks can counterfeit anything now.

Picked up a few pieces at my LCS today. Thought this one was interesting

>>22997243

>>22997054
I just bought a lot of 36 canadian 50 cent pieces off of feebay and I am not worried but I will doubly check each one over now when they show up, I will ping and weight them but circulated constitutional weights seem to vary so much as it is

>>22996719
Not trying to be a smartass but I remember someone in /pmg/ saying "pneumatics" instead of numismatics several times already before so I'm just going to give a friendly reminder here.

Greetings beautiful /pmg/ regulars and /smg/ salt lurkers.
I come to you tonight with a question:
Which of the following do I purchase next Thursday on payday?
>- 2x5oz bars (Sunshine mint)
>- 5x1oz Asahi Bars + 5x1oz Canadian Maples
>- 1x10oz Royal Canadian Mint bar
>- 10x1oz assorted bars (lowest premium)
I'm so stuck and need your guidance

>>22997322
Oh shoot I forgot to post a contribution.
I should also note "get whatever you like" doesn't apply, I like them all ;)

How the fuck do the joggers in South Africa manage to mint Krugerrands anymore? I just simply cannot believe that negros are capable of using complex machinery to mint silver and then guarantee the fineness of said silver to .999 purity

MY STUPID SILVER IS FUCKING WORTHLESS!!!!!!!!!!

>>22997322
It’s all silver

>>22996205
So apart from the Swan Bullion, Perth mint and ABC. Anywhere else good to buy from if you live in Aus. I am just looking to not get seriously fucked on postage.

>>22997406
No just every time I ask everyone says "Get what you like"

>>22997415
I prefer pure, but not a bad idea

>>22997451
Yeah but maybe someone has experience trying to sell 1oz vs 10oz bars and can provide insight or something like that. That's all I ask...

>>22997054
The payoff was better then. Brits had a massive counterfeit problem - here's more info on the subject- tl; dr 2/5ths of the circulating coinage was fake
http://www.thecoppercorner.com/history/evasions_hist.html

My dilemma: i have this cheesy "Maple of strength" 2010 $8 Silver coin, i saw one in the LCS for around $100... The Silver content is less than an ounce and I'm not particularly into numismatic shit especially ones marketed towards the ching chongs like this.
So should i just liquidate it for a bunch of mercs?

>>22997619
My opinion is hang on to it ultra modern nonsene proofs appreciate well

>>22997322
Asahi is the nicest to look at
Otherwise just get the lowest premium 10oz

>>22997633
Yea I guess you're right... this coin is so gay tho

>>22996889
Cum on it

>>22997079
Nice kilo and tubes Yuki-chan. What was for lunch?

LCS gave me this when i asked for a 90s maple... The plastic shell is bulky and annoying, any reason why i should not remove and get rid of it?

I have it right now and all I had was a fever and felt a little shitty for like 4 days

All the talk of counterfeit junk has me pinging all of my junk lol. Is there a trick to pinging smaller coins like quarter or dime size, it is so hard to get a consistent ping out of them because of size

>>22998840
>all I had was a fever and felt a little shitty for like 4 days
Sounds awfully similar to the common cold...

>>22996349
I have it. It's been 5 days. Sore throat, lowe back ache, headaches, and nasal congestion. Absolutely no fever at all so far. Lower back ache is fading but the rest remains.

>>22998355
>>22998294
>>22998443
love you guys. we will take back what is ours.

>>22998854
The returns of smaller coins is so small that counterfeits of quarters, nickels and dimes are very low except key numismatic-value dates.

You should be worried about Peace and Morgan dollars. Kinda for half dollars to but to a lesser extent.

>>22997383

Pretty much was a slightly worse cold for me, this whole thing is a scam, but atleast the shutdowns and stimulus (and trump getting the wuhan virus) will make silver moon... I guess

>>22998890
Are there any statistics on the amount of gold coins that were actually turned over to the looters? I’d have to imagine there was a large minority of people that buried them or kept them in the safe

>>22998965
I would guess almost none was actually turned over, it was more about the posturing that made people like GLR disgusted. They took our ability to save for the future, if you can't prepare the future for your children are you even free at all?

So I only have 100 bucks to spend this week. Just buy 4 ounces of silver, or split it up between a few ounces and a bag of junk silver?

>>22999113
Canadian junk is definitely cool and has a good price, but I’m a stacklet so right now I’m focusing on bullion and US junk. I did find a 1968 Canadian quarter once, but my soul shattered when it stuck to a magnet

Should I spend my money that I've been saving for a big dip to buy a tube of eagles and some other silver in the next couple days?

>>22999141
The only thing you listed you need is a job

>>22999227

I am starting to lose faith in the ping test, Old maples I have that I bought from a reputable dealer do not ping very well at all. a %50 quarter ping lasts much longer and nicer

>>22999227
Personally, I've just been grabbing 4 - 5 oz at a time and I'm keeping enough liquid for either a 20g or 1/2toz gold, a roll of silver, or a pile of barrick.

do women love men the same way men love women?

>>22999348
Yes but also no but also yes

>>22999317
Yea I'm starting to think it's a boomer myth too. There's so many other factors that probably affect the ping like shape, thickness, composition of other alloys, etc. I bet an older coin of the same kind and composition could sound different from how it was made etc

>>22999412
>I'm starting to think it's a boomer myth too.

Decisions, decisions. I kinda wanted to go to my LCS simply for the conversation, and to get my money's worth. But having some actual leaf silver (which I imagine they have it as well) is tempting. I'm a stacklet like >>22999207 so really it's whatever I can get my paws on right now. Maybe just the one ounce and a bag of junk is key right now (I have 20 ounces atm).

>>22999485
Not even once

>>22999555
I forgot to mention LCS because mine is fucking garbage, but if their premiums are less than online bullion dealers it would make sense to buy from the LCS

>>22999633
I bought about 3 ounces when it was 30, and he only charged 33 for it. It seemed reasonable enough at the time. My average is still around 23 since most of my stack was bought at 22, but I'm honestly not really concerned with that. It's my store of value and savings account in my eyes now anyway.

>>22999326
Have $1000, kind of want to get silver but I don't have any gold, does a 1/2 ounce gold piece make more sense right now?

Depends on your leverage and the amount of silver you have currently. If I had over 120 or so oz of silver, I'd be tempted to grab a fractional piece of gold at a low premium.

>>22998965
From what I've heard 48% of Double Eagles and 55% of Eagles were melted down. I can't recall what the percentage was for Half Eagles, but Uncle Sam didn't go after Quarter Eagles, Gold Dollars or Three Dollar Coins, but a lot of them were turned in and melted down as well.

>>23000255
Yes smooth edged. You know anything about the minting of the coin?

I buy all mine in the midwest- the river towns used to all be rich and people unload all sorts of foreign treasures for cheap here. I've bought like 6 1/2 rolls of these since July for all around 27$ a coin.

>>23000301
If I buy this $1000 worth of silver I'll probably have about 130ish ounces of silver so I think ill just get silver, I recently tried to sell off some of my more miscellaneous pieces and I can honestly say that people should just stick to Government minted, Junk silver, and generic, anything else is impossible to sell and you won't make any money on it or be able to do anything with it, once silver goes to around 30 I think I'm gonna sell most of my random shit and most of my generics and buy eagles and junk silver and just keep that as 99% of my stack

>>23000510
My personal take would be to hit ~110 oz silver, and then the rest into barrick, newmont, kinross, SLVP, and FNDF. But that's me, not investment advice, subject to risk, no guarantee

Reposting:

I remember seeing people discuss mining in Finland here a dozen threads back, on the topic of changes to Finnish mining legislation. Pan Man for example pondered the political risks that might be involved in the future. I've been searching for a while and I've come across a lot of interesting articles and documents. Without going into too much detail, here's the facts in a nutshell. Public sentiment on mining is mostly neutral but on the negative side due to a couple of mining-related debacles in the near past. The Finnish Association For Nature Conservation however states that they're not explicitly against mining and that they simply want ecologically sustainable mining. In 7/2019, a citizens' initiative to amend the mining legislation reached the Finnish Parliament's Committee on Finance. The initiative proposed major changes to the mining legislation, which the Committee rejected, although they made their own proposals.

Proposals include: a mining tax(!); adequate resourcing for licensing/permitting authorities and transparency regarding licensing; and clearer mining legislation to protect environment, housing and other industries.

Other notable Committee statements relate to: minimizing environmental impact; assessing the need to clarify legislation related to indigenous rights in the Mining act; strengthening the influence of locals & landowners and the role of municipalities in mining-related decision-making; and forbidding exploration in nature conservation areas


---

The mining law update proposal is still being processed, and currently it seems like the new law is being watered down. A draft of the new law by the Ministry of Employment and Economy that was proposed recently got a negative response from the Greens, according to whom the new draft violates the Government program on 4 different accounts. The Ministry promises to update the new law accordingly.

The new law will be presented to the Parliament in December.

False advertising, defamation (which is nearly impossible) and threats against government officials are all illegal in the US. If you didn't post anything of that nature you may have somehow gotten banned for posting something that violates the laws of your home country.

>>23001216
You forgot
>anything concerning our jewish overlords
you low IQ, traitorous nigger.

>>23001164
I wonder how much of that already exists in mining law and isn't necessary. A massive problem with Canada's mining regulations is that the same areas are constantly brought back up with new legislation that doesnt change anything or really effect anything in a new way. Recently for example, water discharge regulations were emended here in BC to require additional testing of waste water and other effluent discharged into the environment, especially when dealing with mine waste related sediments. However this has already been law and in practice for 5 years. I would not be surprised if regulations in Finland have similar issues.

So /pmg/

Should I buy gold/silver now as the market is closed and price isn't that bad or wait until Monday?

because shit could get wild on monday

>>23001216
>you may have somehow gotten banned for posting something that violates the laws of your home country.
that's probably it.

antisemitic speech is legal in the US but illegal in much of europe so 4chan probably got a request to ban from the EU.

either that or he's been ID'd as a russian or chinese paid troll but that seems unlikely since they usually present simple arguments and his seems to be legitimately paranoid schizo. Impossible to follow unless you're part of his club.

>>23001324
A lot of it does exist but they want to clarify the law and improve it for environment, local community influence and indigenous tribes. This is because of a few mining-related debacles such as the motherfuckers at Dragon Mining who told their investors that they would "drain the metal from the ground before complaints from locals get processed" and the significant environmental impact caused by state-owned Talvivaara mine. The environment is a natural resource and an important value for us Finns, and damaging it is costly for us taxpayers, and this law is a reaction to mining-related problems in Finland

I bought pic related for less than a 90% Kennedy. It might not be worth it for the time being, if you really want a Kennedy right now you can get almost uncirculated 40% Kennedys pretty close to spot.

>>23001612

I wish someone would clarify our mining laws and regulations, there some of the most convoluted and misunderstood in the country, second only to our firearms laws.

Hope my stackers arrive before the 2ACW

$48 for a one ouncer of this. Should I cave? I really love the design. Kind of for myself and less of an investment (unless fiat hits the fan).

>>23001524
Just buy junk silver and ask for half dollars kennedys. Chances are you'll get a decent looking one. I have one i keep in my pocket that i've thought about grading

From a recognised coin dealer? The cheapest one I think. Silver is silver in the end.

dropped $1060 USD today adding to my stacklet. Hit 84 ounces today. Goal is to hit 100 at next paycheck.

Has anyone actually ever invested a significant amount ($5,000+) in silver at a time? What's the most efficient way, just buy some 100 oz bars?

>>23002102
>>23001612
So for junk silver, it’s best just to get the lowest premium, then what makes it decouple from spot— sometimes with a greater delta than Silver Eagles and other typical “high premium” coinage.

Guys let me ask you something.

If Biden wins, will they crash because all stocks are going to crash and Biden will give the epa more teeth to go after American miners?

Or will they skyrocket because Biden is going to print more money?

>Excuse my ignorance, but what are the point of proofs?

Originally, prior to the commodification and retailing of mass-produced proof coins, they were limited runs more honestly representing exemplary "artist's proofs" of the fresh hand-polished coin dies and planchets struck for a select list of recipients or in sub-1,000 quantities. 19th century proof coins are indeed rare and numismatically noteworthy so are worth collecting because of their scarcity and accrued historical interest. They weren't made specifically to be put in plastic encased sets and hawked through Littleton to millions of boomers, does that make sense?

~1950 through 2020 proofs were often mass-produced and certainly tend to be nowadays, so while attractive the modern proofs will never really appreciate in value due to their proofiness alone because of how obnoxiously common they are now.

Sorry for sperging on the subject but it's very important and most of you kiddos haven't been around coins long enough to really understand that there is a fundamental difference between an actual rare "artist's proof" coin and merely proof-grade coins mass produced for consumption by millions of plebs. Don't pay premiums for modern proofs unless it's entirely for personal pleasure, in general they are extremely poor investments and of absolutely no interest to the serious deep-pocketed collectors you need to have around to ensure your collection or investments appreciate.

>>23004703
I don't think Biden winning will have much effect as you think it will, the Fed will print trillions regardless of who wins.

I've had some counterfeit 40% kennedies, if they fake low purity silver they'll definitely fake higher purity stuff

>>23005063
Wow that sucks, where'd you buy them? Private sale?

>>23005063
>counterfeit 40% kennedies

Absolutely disgusting, but considering how China will counterfeit cargo containers full of chewed up clad coin (the Mint or Treasury buys back damaged coin at a set price per weight) the prospect of faking 40% halves would be a goldmine in comparison.

How bad or noticable were the counterfeit clad silver halves? I haven't come across any fake halves yet but have seen plenty of fake dollars. I've always wanted to collect the 1883 Hawaiian series but even worn dimes I'm suspicious of now. If nothing else the Chinese can always be counted on to really shit everything up.

>>22996205
Now that I found out there’s glowniggers openly posting in the thread bragging about the fact that they’re glowniggers I will not be posting my stack

I agree that you gotta have some 10% of your portfolio in silver of gold but if you don't want to miss out on gains you gotta have some tech share of the cake, and the most promising share is ChainLink

They were intentionally designed to look worn. The Chinks aren't as stupid as we think and can fake wear and tear, patina and etc.

>>23005178
I run a store where I deal bullion. I have a device that tells me the exact composition of any coin someone gives to me. Quite scary to see even 35% pure war nickels being faked honestly. But the most faked are 90% pure coins, gold coins and etc. Recently I have ran into more and more less valuable counterfeits.

>>23005484
>Quite scary to see even 35% pure war nickels being faked honestly
Holy fuck, if they’re faking war nickels can you imagine how many they’d have to be faking to make a profit? It’d have to be in the millions if not the billions

>>23005543
Nothing is safe, nothing is sacred.
Does specific gravity tests even work on 40%?

>>23005543
The counterfeit metals cost maybe a few cents. The tools to make the coins cost alot more but they are a one time investment. After that they can churn out as many fake silver coins as they want. They turn a few cents worth of alloy into hundreds of dollars worth of coins. I buy kennedy halves for $3 each, so they are turning a profit of $3 for each coin they make. The hard part would be getting the counterfeit into the USA and Europe, but it seems they've got over that hurdle and fakes are starting to appear on the market in huge numbers now.

I buy kennedy halves for around $3 and war nickels for around $1. Chinks are making thousands of these coins as we speak for pennies.

>>23005484
scary.
what's the device and how foolproof is it?

>>23004932
>Good point
Well that's not good, can someone else chime in here?

Anyone have predictions regarding the trajectory of industrial metals? Because they're easy to melt down I've passively stacked lead and pewter (tin). Lead seems to be seeing decreasing usage and demand but tin is clean/safe and has always been a relatively valuable base metal, almost like "the poorer man's silver".

Pewter is generally 92% tin and above, I've seen up to 97%, and at $17,545.00/ton or about $9 a pound it adds up.

There is plenty of competition for silver at sales/markets but many overlook pewter and often big wall chargers or pitchers weighing pounds can be had for a buck or 2. You can literally just melt it in a pot on a stove if you wanted, then pour ~1 lb bars to sell on eBay for $10-$12 each to people casting nontoxic toy soldiers or whatever.

Scrapping silver is sexier but hoovering up cheap tin is something else to do when out hunting around for more exciting things, there is definitely a market for it and it's very easy to work with.

>>23005611
I think specific gravity would work on any purity of silver, you’d just have to do some research and high school level arithmetic to figure out the exact density of the alloyed coin in question. But I think buying a few different sized chemistry beakers would be a lot more precise than just doing the gravity test on the scale

>>23005622
https://youtu.be/rYLxmRsFIWE
Caught alot of fakes so far, tells you the exact percentage

>>23005611
>tests even work on 40%?

They are clad silver with a shell of 80% and core of 22.5% silver if memory serves. I've tested the edges of them with nitric and the high copper core reacts noticably, I doubt the Chinese ones react similarly.

>>23005354
chainlink is 2018. parabolic gains have already been had. will it continue to appreciate? certainly. but the opportunity for 100x returns are gone.

those gains are now present in silver miners and a few other small cap cryptos.

>>23005761
That thing is awesome, how much fiat did you have to pay for it?

>>23005851
5k, I handle alot of gold so it has saved me more now than it has lost me. Another interesting little fact: I had someone bring in Silvertowne rounds, and while they were mostly silver, they were definitely not .999 pure. They were in tubes and he showed me he bought them directly from Silvertowne. I advised he complain and tell me the outcome. He told me they issued him a refund and gave him a free 10oz bar.
So they are probably a company to avoid.

>>23005940
I think there is a cheapo one. I'll try and find it I'm pretty sure APMEX sells it. Honestly aslong as you buy junk silver from reputable sellers I'm pretty sure you'll be fine. But when you buy from anywhere else you should just expect to receive counterfeits.

>>23005977
I bought mine used because I'm a frugal bastard. They are very very expensive if you want one brand new.

Update, can't taste anything now. Joy from eating food is now gone.

>>23006066
About what year did you start seeing fake common date junk halves and smaller?

Also, have you ever been presented those legit 90% silver planchet chinese fake key dates like 16-D mercs? I browsed the website of one of those higher end counterfeiting outfits and was equally horrified and impressed with their attention to detail and ability to convincingly "circulate" them if desired by the customer. Probably some telltales in-hand but from the pictures that stuff spooks me.

>>23006273
Can you not taste maybe because you've been taking zinc? Just 1 of those cold eeze zinc lozenges killed my ability to taste for a few days, I was a bit alarmed desu but it all came back. Hopefully it's something like that fren.

>>22997079

I am financially ruined

>>23006375
It took me almost a month to get my taste back. But now the taste(and smell) of Garlic, Onions and one other thing I can’t figure out yet, are awful. It’s the worst thing ever. It’s been about 4-5 months now and there’s no sign of this going away. It makes me sad when I eat.

>>23006375
Damn that sounds pretty severe, 28 hours is still early though so hang tight fren. Not sure if you've heard of "Miracle Fruit" but it has a chemical (miraculin) that binds to taste buds and makes everything sour/acidic, like vinegar or lemon juice, taste quite sweet for an hour or so. Used to be popular for hipsters to have taste parties with the stuff. If desperation strikes you can see if that brings life back to your senses. Good luck m8.

>>22996205
Is that pandesal?

>>23006286
I've seen just about every trick in the book. I've even seen key dates made with the proper precious metal composition, but fakes.
I started seeing fake Kennedies back in 2012. But now they are so common I check every single one. 90% silver dollars and half dollars were always faked before, but now its getting to a point where they are faking dimes to the point where I cant tell with my naked eye. Silver plating and their counterfeiting techniques are becoming very sophisticated.

>>23006465
Thanks anon.
>>23006463
Please no, I love those.

>>23006523
Now I’m really glad those Mercs I was going to buy off eBay got purchased before I could pull out my card

>>23006622
I'm not trying to discourage anyone from buying precious metals but about 1 in 40 kennedies I handle are fakes. And 99% of the fakes the buyer admits to purchasing from eBay / other shady places. Same with the higher purity silver.

>>23006523
>I started seeing fake Kennedies back in 2012.

Thanks for sharing anon, the timing makes sense. Looks like I'll be stocking up on more nitric acid and Schwerter's solution.

I didn't expect to have to scrutinize 90% Roosevelt dimes let alone damn war nickels, the Chinese really do ruin everything.

>>23006877
You'll be fine assuming you avoid eBay. Better to pay $2 over spot instead of $25 over spot for Chinese counterfeit metal lol

This time it's different.

My portfolio is spread thin between miners, all down 10 - 20%. I don't mind holding still but it's hard to add more money when I see those losses. What would be a true catalyst for another explosive price increase? Timeframe?
