First for boobies

Using my tax return to reach 500 total oz of silver and giving my wife the rest so she can buy dumb woman shit. After that I’m going full on Goldmember until I’m at least 1:100.

>I LOVE GOOOOOOOOOOLLLLLD

>>53766171
How many OZs of gold do I need to retire?
Am Amerifat.

I know some of you guys are gonna get mad at me for this but check this out
I found out you can tone shit overnight really easily
Came out great!

>>53766244
As much as possible and a small cabin made from natural materials and rain catchment and a permaculture garden and enough guns to Ruby Ridge the government and…

Enough is never enough, anon. But that first gold oz is a nice start.

Here’s the Aztec round i did

I put it back in to see if it’ll get any red
I’m happy

>real capitalism has never been tried before
>you see, what happened is that every society that has claimed to be capitalist in all of history was actually corporatist, or as I like to call it, private-communist

Does anyone have the gold silver tier list? i need it.

>>53766207
Holy shit that’s a nice coin. I’ll keep an eye out for that.

>>53766359
That was never the argument being made. The argument being made was that communists always mistake corporatism for capitalism.

>>53766367
>Does anyone have the gold silver tier list? i need it.

> Under 100oz silver

Good boi, smart investor, high IQ. Fren.

> Over 100oz silver, or any amount of gold

>>53766462
I find that the more frothing the anti-capitalist, the less their understanding of how capitalism actually works. In fact, they rarely even understand what capital is.

>>53766476
well yeah but I need it because of the pepes

>>53766207
Ok. So only 500 made and it’s 2oz, thought it might be a bit expensive given it’s size and limited run… but I can’t justify £1200 lol.

>n-no just disregard the hundreds of millions of deaths caused directly by communism in such a short time, it wasn't REAL communism
>n-no you can't have 1 single capitalist country, every single country needs to be communism or it won't work because that one capitalist country will flourish
>n-no there won't be any corruption or greed in my system, everyone will have the best intentions for everyone else and there will be no wrongdoing

>>53766291
I'm curious what the Marxist stacker would say about this picrel.

I've never had quite a word to put on it but I've always felt that a "true capitalism" would necessitate sound money based on something like gold or silver. Fiat currency--where money is essentially a legal instrument and not a tangible store of value--seems decidedly not conducive to a free market. Rather, fiat is a natural consequence of a command, top-down economic structure.

>>53766498
I can understand the confusion because capitalism and corporatism do blur with one another the more people you add to a business. Even with that in mind, I think the most definitive difference is when a company has public shares vs private shares as the latter only applies to the workforce in the company.

Hi scrapfren!
>>53751011
>I can't find the nice bronze coin I have floating around somewhere but these are my very oldest "French" silver coins.
That's amazing stuff scrapfren. That big Massa' coin on top is in a really great condition too! I've yet to take the ancient numismatic pill, i started to peek around here and there 2 years ago but i've been discouraged by the fear of fakes. Idk how prevalent they are, but since i've zero knowledge i always assume the worst.

How much did you pay for those coins for example? Since you live in the US, it must be adding quite a premium to anything helenic/roman, right?
Do you have any lil tips to recognize a genuine coin from a falsely aged repro?

That's something i really want to get into eventually. For now my budget is really tight (especially with my car breaking down), but i find it incredible 2 millenias old artifacts like this are still so cheap. Imagine spending 500K on an ape jpg while you could have an amazing collection of ancient civilizations' time capsules who somehow miraculously survived until now, it's like Hephaistos-bonding with our ancestors. But no, nfts and shitcoins... we truly live in late stage clownworld.

>>53762232
>what I recommend you do is look for a solid-sterling "fish knife", they were 1-piece construction with a solid silver blade
I recently bid on a "fermier generaux" one to go along my old silverware, not quite the same as a fish knife, since it was only silver blade + other materials used for the handle, they are often referred as "butter knives". And they seems to be quite rare and sought after, because the auction ended up at x6 spot -and that was for the gross weight- so.. far above my means, and the handle was in mother-of-pearl iirc.
Those fish knives you talk about, do they are the ones with a different shape than normal knives and no teeth?

>I found somebody that was actually willing to directly trade me my tube of 20 Silver Eagles for tube of 25 2020 Canadian Maples at the coin show last weekend.
Was it the right move to make?

>>53766558
>Fiat currency--where money is essentially a legal instrument and not a tangible store of value--seems decidedly not conducive to a free market. Rather, fiat is a natural consequence of a command, top-down economic structure.

Exactly. It is a centralized instrument with a monopoly over the store of labor. The left needs the central bank for their central planning and distribution of goods. They will argue that it should be receipts instead of cash for specific food items so it limits everyone what they can have, but that is exactly what CBDC will do as that store of labor is programmable so everyone will be limited what they can buy and when they can buy it. It's the ultimate collectivist tyranny.

>>53766603
>get 5 extra oz and a better design
What's not to like here?

>>53766580
Corporations are artificial people created by statute. They are fictional entities that can own property, go to court, enter into contracts, just like real people. But they are immortal, immune to punishment, and can issue equity shares that can be spent like money for buying up an infinite amount of other businesses and assets. None of this is true for real individual humans.

>>53766603
Did you not get an answer last time? You have more silver and some boomer has his eagles. I’d be happy, but I know what you mean. “What I’d they go up in value more…”

You can’t predict the future but you now have a larger stack.

Does a fren can help me out with this one? I don't think i've ever seen these hallmarks, and i've issues decyphering what it says. The kinda "Pi" got me thinking it could be greek, but it's not corresponding from what i've seen online.

>>53766646
I know, but again the line is blurred even with a limited company because you could be the sole trader of that company. You would still class that as capitalism rather than corporatism.

new thread new mail box pickup

>>53766637
But on the other hand, suppose we were in a society where we bartered with one another using things like Best Buy and McDonald's gift cards, which have a store of value that are based on a corporate determination rather than a government one. Even if this occurs in a free market setting there's something about this that strikes me as equally fraudulent because the money doesn't derive its value from a tangible good. The only difference in this scenario is it's made up by a corporate entity rather than a government one.

>>53766707
That's dirty filthy communist Russian silverplate fren, I think I've read that the numbers refer to the Ruble and Kopek cost per piece set by the kike central planners.

>>53766637
If more people realized that their “money” was printed blindly by a private entity and loaned to the actual government there would be politicians hanging from street lamps in Minecraft before the day was done.

The concept we have of capitalism has long since been replaced and the exact time and date as to when that happened is argued. Maybe the removal of the gold standard, maybe the birth of the federal reserve, maybe the removal of silver from a bimetal economy.

Nonetheless, assuming that our modern system of capitalism isn’t anything besides a centralized and despotic means of control is adhering to an idealistic hope that the Monopoly man has your best interests at heart.

Fuck me drive through any deindustrialized town or city and you’ll see that gutting their own country in the pursuit of maximized profit is the sole focus of our long nosed masters.

I still feel communists aren’t just so bitter at their standing within modern society that the answer of total revolution tickles their balls because at least their abusers would be dead even if they’re now condemned to starve.

Fuck Marx. Heil Kruger.

God some of you people seem to have no fucking sense of what numismatic premiums are like with +100 year old coins in Mint State condition.
It's not like slabbing Silver Eagles where you're paying more for the plastic and only the plastic.

>>53766850
I'd say it'd depend on the price. When it's modern rounds/coins, i don't pay much attention to the design, i simply want the best bang for my bux. What's certain is i wouldn't shell extra money to get my hands on those tho. But if you got them for cheap, then it's all to your honor!

A lot of derision for slabs for no reason. There is a difference between someone sending in a Morgan where you can’t even see LIBERTY and a coin like this. Let it stay in its mint state. It’s like if I wanted to fondle my state proof quarters, why would I?

There is a cognitive dissonance between crypto-maximalists and their comparisons between the evils of fiat/CDBC and Bitcoin.

Do they really think that the ever growing transition to digital currency isn’t going to be met with ever tightening restrictions on crypto?

Without going down the schizo rabbit hole of how crypto is all just a CIA/NWO/WEF red herring to normalize the initial introduction of digital goods or how Sam Bankman-Fried was tied to major members of government:

>why the fuck would a government whose active goal is to restrict and control your spending allow you to use a “decentralized” alternative currency?

Bitcoin in Niggeria is being used in opposition of the new CBDC being rolled out and enforced by their government but we are such gaping vaginas in the West that we’ll likely embrace it immediately.

Called my well guy every 6 months for an update on the market for hand well pumps.1 year ago none in stock, 6 months ago waitlist, today they are saying the hand pump companies want a 50% down payment on their current quote for the equipment and don’t guarantee a final price. Been trying to get a hand pump for a long time. Not sure I’ll ever get one unless people stop panicking, my only other option is solar tied into my pump and pressure tank and I don’t really want to go that route. For now the plan is to go to the town creek and haul water back lol.

why is 1oz Au = 100 oz Ag for all these?

fucking shit boys, i really fucked up. was bidding on a coin just to keep it on my watchlist, figured it would go higher. Hit the confirm bid without looking too hard, or thinking about it much, it would for sure go over my bid. Just as I did that, i realized the 20% buyers premium on it. Its too late now, perhaps Ill get outbid tho. A little pissed at myself tbqh.

>>53768221
Because at the time the ratio was that. It has been left like that because it is easier for rough calculations.

>>53768253
its mormons. they are historically a prepper society, and they recommended families to have at a minimum starting point the 1-100.

lmao you'd have to submit a quality design to a mint so they can etch it in to a specially prepared die and then order 100 rounds MINIMUM to be minted to make it worth the mint's time. I'd say it'd probably take like 3-5k depending on what type of finish you want on the coins and how many you order. there's a reason most of the runs in the past were crowdfunded on kickstarter

there's also the 6.25 gram silver version from the 2020 silver proof set

It wasn't silver or gold, but recently I got coins in my change that are as old and older than me.
Also, I'm tempted by this cheap "cyberpunk" note just because of the times we live in:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CR7iLv9t0uQ
It's got an interesting amount of security features including either UV/blacklight features.
Only a shame that it doesn't feature any PMs as far as I can tell. I've seen Nadir put 1 gram and 1/10th of a gram of gold into a "Karatbar" which is basically a card/note surrounding the gold.
Would've been cool if similar was done with silver on this product (unless it is and I just missed that?)
But to stay a little more on-topic here are some coins that seem to be in the same series:

>>53768488
>order 100 rounds MINIMUM to be minted to make it worth the mint's time
Also to make the coin price lower, two dies with complex design can cost $1600. It would be a shame if you minted only one coin.

Asking again for more replies.

Question: I can get pic related for ~7% premium; if I want a state minted coin it’s closer to double that. Is it better to stick with smaller premiums to stack weight, even if it’s an unusual format?

I figure when times comes to sell I’ll likely get SPOT anyway. So may as well keep premiums down in the front end. Thoughts?

>Also I live in Canada where Crown gold and anything <98% pure gets taxed 13% AFTER numis premiums. Which is BS

>>53769229
Don’t buy that

>>53769229
Stick to coins for gold, the premium is so small and dealers want to work with what they know. If you want the dumb gold nut just buy it, but it's not at all a good purchase

>>53766766
I just bought a new tacoma fren

>>53769229

22kt gets taxed in his retarded country so the nut is probably his best bet

>>53769332
the stupid nut distracted me I forgot the pic

>>53769346
He can still get britannias, buffaloes, maples, Kangaroos, or an at least recognized generic like valcambi or pamp. You'd have to be a nut to buy the nut.

>>53769371
he also said the premium for a state-minted coin would be double the nut's premium. I think he should go nuts for the nut

>>53769398
But what about a 24 karat recognizable generic? Those also have low premiums. Generally speaking I don't see gold buyers say "oh yeah, let's go buy a $500 nut" usually they buy jewelry, coins or bars. Liquidity is important!

>>53766367

>>53769323
pics?

>>53766367

>>53769229
It helps to know where you are, as local taxes, VATs, and maybe other restrictions come to bear.
If I have any misgivings, I don't buy the piece.
My personal preference is to buy things that I like now, rather than buy for what I speculate will appeal to others in some distant future when I might sell.
If you're just stacking, go for low premium. You might be able to get the best of both worlds - buy old European gold coinage - francs, ducats, pesos(?), coronas... They have very low premiums, are fractional weights, are alloyed so they' can withstand fondling, and have no numismatic value.

>>53769229
nice hexane molecule
theres quite the rabbithole you could go down with that shape
id avoid it personally
it is cool, but just stick to your country's minted bullion.

>>53769411
IMO gold is gold, if it's clearly a quarter ounce of pure gold then I would have no problem buying it off him. even if it wasn't stamped appropriately a quick scan from a sigma tester would verify it immediately. all this fuss for a 7% premium is funny as hell though because if he were able to buy coins without tax he could probably get a 5% premium or even less.

I saw these in person today. Incredibly beautiful. 10 oz each. Basically $100 per ounce. Cheapest in the same store is $35 per ounce. Still, it's tempting. These photos don't do the in-person experience justice at all.

I can tell by your pic you're a canadian leaf from the maritimes, N.B or N.S, i been to their shop in N.B and its a nice shop, i don't recommend those dealer-made gold hexagons though, they also have a shop in N.S

I'm a member of said church but have never heard of this ratio being touted there.

>>53769700
SUPER!. Right now I think only: goldbacks are issued in four states: Utah, Nevada, Wyoming and New Hampshire. 13 is a good step!

This Combine? Or am I missing a reference that's older than me?

>>53769829
Speaking of PMbacks, I saw a Lord of the Rings themed silverback today. Interesting that such a thing exists. Then again outright 1 oz rounds and coins do, so why not a cheaper option?

>>53769452
>ability to share his wealth with those who didn't make it
I really like this point and hope it's true if the most extreme scenario propping up silver happens in my lifetime
Still planning to get some people started on their stacks, I hope they accept their first ounce wholeheartedly.

That chick on the third row from bottom, third column from the left had a banging body back in the day. I remember when /pol/ first discovered her nudes from when she was young.

For the ones potentially interested, there is a quite rare and remarkable item on sale whose auction is ending soon on ebay. It's a pair of prussian Augsburg candelabras, second half of XVIIIth c..
They weight a total of 1.724kg, the base may be weighted, but it's not specified in the description.
So far the highest disclosed bid is at 826€ ($880), it will probably end up higher, as ancient candlesticks are really sought after from what i understand.

I was planning to snipe it initially, but i don't have enough cash for the moment, so i prefer to share it with the frens.
Here's the link :

I can “dig” the hole with specialized equipment that I rent 500ft down but I cannot manufacture my own system from scratch. Before I get a lecture on how I should do everything myself, my time is very much split between raising/training animals, small businesses, and children. This is a division of labor issue and the market ought to demand that I can pay a fair amount for this equipment as long as enough people quit going along with the greedy schemes of these companies.

>imo gold is gold
That’s not even an opinion it’s just fact, but gold minted and hallmarked and recognized is quite different from some random gold homebrew or we wouldn’t even be discussing this topic.
>>53769829
There is no reason not to mint a gold coin or a silver coin and do the same thing, this is passing a novelty as some economic innovation. I’m not sure if there is some legal hurdle they are overcoming by doing this so I cannot speak to that.

>>53770044
This talmudic dark magick doesn't exist over here, so that's why i'm all confused. But by all mean if you have the means you can add a bid or two and try your luck. If not weighted, it's currently at 15€/oz, which is stupidly cheap for such item. That's why i share it. But realistically i don't think it will end below 1K+, for the moment it's just boomies warming up their finger and getting ready to outbid this bad boy with only 2sec remaining kek.

Th- the numismatics. The desire. It's taking hold.
I kid, but today I understood more about how people could get swept up in that.
So easy when it's still some PM/real money you're getting.

>>53770351
Interesting location. That area seems to get considerable mention in fiction.
Anyway, "paeonia coin" brought up a lot of interesting results. Good mention.

>>53770597
That’s how I justify my impulse ounce buys. It’s just turning paper into money.

“My” river finally returned to normal water levels.
All the good gravel bars are gone now. Only the big ones that have long been picked empty remain.
RIP in pieces, /diy/-stacking.

>>53771045
On the plus side, however, I’m finally got an excuse to try the small creeks out of town, or the old gravels on the hills (if I find the time for it…) to maybe find the source of the gold and I still got some bedrock spots way above the water level (pic related ) that are kinda weird. Loads of lead (good sign, I’d say) but so far boy mediocre gold, should keep me entertained for a few days.

>Those fish knives you talk about, do they are the ones with a different shape than normal knives and no teeth?
Yeah, some makers offered sets of forks and knives that were specifically made for fish. This is my only one, I'd like more but they're kinda scarce so cheapies don't show up often.
>How much did you pay for those coins for example? Since you live in the US, it must be adding quite a premium to anything helenic/roman, right?
I approach numisfagging the same way I stack; I usually buy only when it's a good deal significantly below retail value so I can generate a profit if I was ever forced to liquidate. The big one was only $34.26 USD shipped, and I got a batch of 5 silver obols for 35 or $40 shipped then sold 2 individually to pay for what I kept. The bronze was $28.78 and definitely worth it, when I figure out where I put it I'll show a pic. Even at retail price ancient coins feel criminally undervalued for how interesting they are, and when you can get them cheap there's no comparison to the boring mass-produced sovlless machine-made modern junk most people collect.
>Do you have any lil tips to recognize a genuine coin from a falsely aged repro?
Unfortunately no, ancient coins are a complicated realm that only an autist can really wrap their mind around, the best way to avoid fakes is to buy from reputable ancient-specialist sellers, but those coins usually cost closer to retail. The good deals are usually from people who don't have an established store or customer base who are selling collections or consignments, but determining whether the coins are legit and if the chances are high you'll get good deals takes experience and intuition. You are definitely wired right to do it but it takes a while to build the core knowledge and experience.

Almost at 200 ozt ag, hitting up a coin show later hopefully I can find some nice cheapies

>>53769119
>$1830
Why so cheap for 100 koronas?

>>53772546
luv me some poured/cast loaf bars, good luck hunting down some cheapies. Keep in mind that the earliest birds get the underpriced rarities, and the latest birds can haggle with dealers just about to pack up and leave for better deals on both rarities and generic stuff that they didn't manage to sell. It's similar to a flea market just about to close, the sellers are often much more willing to sell cheap to get a final sale and avoid having to pack it up and bring it back home to languish until the next show.

>>53772787
Redpill me about the loafs, anon. Why do I love them so.

>>53772787
I love the look of those two-color coins.
I want a gold-silver bi-metal coin with the interior gold of equal value to the exterior silver. Not by current GSR, but by either actual or enforced GSR. 1/15th or 1/16th.

Is it really silver? Seems weird to make some marketing thing out of silver.

didnt people say the economy would crash last year because of the government stimulus? Why hasnt is crashed, why are they now saying it is this year? Is this a case of:
>Two more weeks.

>>53774750
Hm. And yet...

I got my tax refund recently so I went and bought out the silver coins in my maternal grandfather's coin collection. Price wise, the vast majority of it was 19 silver dollars.

I live in my paternal grandfather's house and just finally dug through that coin collection today. Only a few silver dollars there, but like 25 or so half dollars. I'm going to have to seek permission yet to buy that out.

>>53774764

>>53774764
Knowing a system is unstable and predicting exactly when it will collapse are two different things. The first question can be answered with reason. The second question has too much chaos in it.

Just ordered a single 23 Lizzie and a 23 Charles 1oz silver so I don’t miss out.

I’ll probs be grabbing 50 or whatever is cheap later in the year, but the 2023 Lizzies are a little higher in price now so I thought I’d grab one. I’m also on the lookout for a 2001 Britannia but the premiums are very high.

80% silver it Was even used as money during certain times in 60's and 70's when there was a lacking of circulating coins in those times u could recieve anything as change for your purchases: stamps, candy, etc, at a certain point private banks printed mini-checks of 50 and 100 liras to cope

>>53774764
Not everyone, just the simple minded. There's only speculation when it will happen exactly, however there are some key things to take note of that will lead to it crashing:

>Draining the COMEX
This will expose the derivative futures being used on the market to suppress silver price. If you've got nothing in the vault you can't use a derivative on this silver. This would cause the true price discovery to be known that would cause a migration out of fiat into a silver monetary system crashing fiat value. It nearly happened in the early 80's which is why so many people are focused on it.

>BRICS
Has the possibility of partitioning the world economy and dethroning the US dollar as the world currency. It's still years away but appears to be a sure thing, going full steam by 2050. When new nations join BRICS and drop their US dollars, the currency will come back to the United States and flood its market with massive inflation.

>Crackup Boom
When the United States population views the US dollar as worthless paper, as a result of currency printing and nations around the world dropping their US dollars. This here is the event horizon moment, but when it will happen is anyone's guess. I personally think it will happen within the next ten years, but you never know, the United States might have something up its sleeve like debt trapping Ukraine through BlackRock rebuilding program.

Nu Pepe is an alternate depiction of Pepe in which the frog is drawn with crossed arms and wearing a blue long sleeve shirt.

On January 24th, 2015, an edited version in which Pepe is wearing a Bane mask was posted on the Russian imageboard Двa.ч[5] (shown bellow, middle). On March 1st, an unedited version of the image was posted on 4chan's /qa/ (question and answer) board,[4] referring to the reaction image as "nu pepe" and nominating it as "the official meme of /qa/" (shown bellow, right).[4] The next day, the image was stickied on the [s4s] (shit 4chan says) board.[3]

I remember another anon posting greek/macedonian coins featuring Medusa's head, i thought they looked neat.

I’m back from the show lads, finally broke 200 ozt. Feels good. Got a Buffalo round, some mercs, FDRs, and Franklin halves. Prices were aight, pretty close to online but without having to pay the tax Jew. I feel like they were comparably cheaper when spot was higher, but if I was into numismatics I think I could’ve found some decent deals.

>fuck the wef

>>53776740
>Hood crops
Sorry anon. Should have been * Good crops*

What are some *good* crops to grow?

>>53776771
My chickens are still laying. I feed them scratch and crumble from the store. They could just live off scratch and bugs, I reccomend just feeding them scratch if your worried (the hens not the chicks).

>>53776788
Squash anon, you can’t go wrong with squash no matter where you are.

>>53776771
I will transition the baby chicken nuggets to whole grain seed (sunflowers, oats, rye, millet) that is soaked overnight and broadcast until piles of compost. The chickens get slightly fermented whole grain immediately and what they miss becomes sprouts that grow in nutritional content. I think the starter feed is untouched and shouldn’t inhibit their ability to lay later in life BUT I’ll be transitioning them to the good stuff ASAP.

>>53776788
If you’re talking about personal consumption than a couple of beds broadcast sown with leafy greens, herbs, and root vegetables (make a mix of whatever you like) and directly sown with whatever fruiting crops you like (okra, squash, tomatoes, cucumbers, etc.) will create a garden space where you get to harvest salad greens and root vegetables while your bigger crops use them as a living mulch.

Staple and storage crops like potatoes and sweet potatoes can take up a whole bed or multiple but I split them between beds with wildflowers and cover crop growing to limit immediate pest pressure.

Regarding market gardening it is all about where you are. City folk will happily pay out the ass for salad greens but out here in the county folks are scared of red okra since they grew up on grammy’s green okra and are terrified of change.

I know a guy who exclusively sells potatoes in spring and okra in the summer and that is literally the start and stop of his entire business model.

This is our first year here so I’m not planting for market; focusing just on building the soil, getting a personal kitchen garden built, and bringing in chickens.

Moment the house is done I’ll build a greenhouse attached to the south side of my home to regulate temperature like a DIY AC unit. We’ll start thousands of perennials (fruit trees, fruiting shrubs, and herbs) that might see demand locally but I think will definitely have an online interest. Folks charge way too much for my liking for certain plants when I know it doesn’t take much space, time, or effort to grow comfrey or sunchokes.

>>53776108
>I remember another anon posting greek/macedonian coins featuring Medusa's head, i thought they looked neat.

Yep that was me too, if you want a cheap ancient silver Medusa coin look for a Drachm from Apollonia Pontica (also spelled Pontika), they are common for ancient silver coins and go up for auction frequently, be aware that there are fakes though.
Here's a cast fake for sale, this is a notorious scammer seller: https://www.ebay.com/itm/165937660228
Here's a genuine one up for auction, the seller has other nifty coins for sale too: https://www.ebay.com/itm/385414622961

In scrap news today I won 10 different auction lots from a single seller, a mix of .830 and sterling silver items. The largest lot was this batch of attractive .830 silverware which cost about $140 total, no weight or dimensions given but I think chances are good they're full size dinner forks and soup spoons and weigh ~500g. A few lots for single pieces I won were ridiculously cheap thanks to combined shipping and the lack of stated weight/dimensions scaring away noob scrappers, I'll post results when they're delivered. Happy hunting fren.

COPPERCHADS RISE

What is the use case of British sovereigns? Why do people buy them over pure gold coins?

>>53777207

Managed to score about 500grams of copper after they refitted some stuff at work a few years ago. This has been in my drawer for 5 years. Now I think it was worth bringing home.

>>53777207
They're recognized by a fair number of people and I'd be surprised if any LCS didn't know about them.
At the LCS near me at least I can get 1 ounce of gold by buying those for 100-200 less than buying 1 ounce coins.
Additionally it's fractional which could come in handy. Also often roughed up to the point where you're not as worried about handling it.
Finally a seller (LCS, online shop or individual) might let a prized date slip by, which you can then flip for more than the average price and then buy a sovereign plus some more.

It is a fact that it's much easier for us burgerscrappers than for anyone anywhere else in the world, there's so much old unloved sterling here and so many ignorant retards who don't recognize its value. Anyway I'm confident you'll find an incredible deal sooner or later, just a matter of time before you get a full silverware set with dozens of pieces for like 100 euros. Here is one of the most egregious cheapies I got from the seller today, I'm pretty sure it's an ~8" serving fork that weighs about 60g, shipping for all 10 lots was $20 so with its share of shipping it was under $5 total kek. Look at the seller's other sold items to see the kind of prices the silverware went for, only pathetic chucklefucks think I need to make anything up: https://www.ebay.com/itm/304803032123

It sux here. You ever watch American pickers or stuff like pawn stars. In the UK we never have anything. Anything of value or use was melted down during the war and no one had space to store anything. It’s hard to find anything interesting.

Watched a British show. The lady has a decent return from going to “boot” sales. Which means trunk I think in bongspeak.

Yeah it does. I only ever find silver plate at those locally.

True. I should emigrate to the slurp paradise (tho i wouldn't want to tread on your toes), but there's still your stupid kiked vax obligation to enter US territory, which is beyond insane. Aren't the US the only country left on earth still forcing ppl to get vaxxed to enter on the territory?

Got a nervous laughter looking at the price.

In the Midwest, the silver plate is priced like sterling and the sterling is way over priced because boomers “know what they got”. You have to get extremely lucky. Same with furniture. The beat to shit ugly 1970’s oak dresser or table is listed as “antique” and way overpriced. In general, everything being sold by boomers is overpriced. They rather not sell it than sell it at a fair price. Auctions are bad too because most things worth buying sell for market price. But then people find out that they have to pay tax and auction fees and just overpaid by 20%.

I run a few antique booths here in the Midwest. It’s decent money. I don’t gouge so my shit actually sells. I probably bring in $500 a month. Convert to metals ofc. My biggest obstacle is the high amount of theft. These are white people stealing shit because you couldn’t find a nigger if you wanted to,

The kilo is more is better price per ounce but still retardedly expensive.

My experience is with yard sales, Craigslist, and local auctions. They all suck real bad. The antique mall near me has decent prices, but it’s rare to find anything I would consider a good score. I’m 100% sure the boomers that run the place sell all the good antiques to their friends before it hits the floor.

You're not buying silver: you're buying art.

>>53777313
beautiful thank you, do you think i could sell them to the companies selling them for that much to make a profit?

Stick with the auction. I’m the youngest person with a booth everywhere I go, try the hibid estate sales. You will not score at an antique store, we all bought the item because we know what it’s worth
