Cool video and I've subscribed to your channel. Feel free to check out my videos too. One thing you might consider for BU bullion coins that are semi-numismatic are the Royal Canadian Mint Wildlife Series coins. I've really enjoyed collecting those and the bullion Perth Mint Lunar Series coins. Keep on stacking!
@ANTIDALLARD the "Regular Issue" Ikes are just "Clad" , the Silver Uncirculated and Proof versions produced by the U.S. Mint for collectors (1971 to 1974) are 40% Silver.
@Silveready1 But if i buy silver and pay for it in cash, how would a government know that i own any silver? What are they going to do, send armed forces door to door to take the silver by force? And what if i say i don't have any silver?
Like NorseCrusader i don't really know what this confiscation involves.
When I started stacking silver I only purchased bullion but have recently been buying a lot of junk silver and now even buying some low mintage Royal Canadian Mint coins! I am in no way a coin collector but have come to the realization that I needed to diversify my stash! Personally I wouldn't buy any slabbed coins due to the prices of MS69 and MS70 ratings but MS64 may be a good option cost-wise! Just not for me at this point! Love you vids!
Great info. The confiscation issue really concerns me, I'll be buying less bullion and more numismatics. I appreciate your recommendations on the MS63-64, and the discussion of the grading companies. Well done.
the only bad thing is that numismatics such as morgans and other US coins are losing investors. goto and coin show and the majority of people are 45+.. the younger guys such as myself and many that i know are more into mint coins like kangaroos,libertads,pandas etc. i believe there will be more value to gain in buying a panda with a low mintage. not saying that high grade morgans will lose value,just that the market is changing. any thoughts?
@dcblyke actually, Higher Grade Morgan and Peace dollars are Hotter than they've ever been! I was at the Long Beach coin show last week and there were People of All ages including a lot of kids. as far as "what" to collect -it all depends on the individual, I tend to be more leary of Modern Collectibles as they have not stood the "test of time" value-wise like the Morgan and Peace Dollars have.
as far as people 45+ investing in Rare coins..that makes sense, it took me a while to wise up also :)
@dcblyke That's been my observation too. I'm fairly new to the gold / silver arena. Most of my stash is 90% silver with a few bars and rounds. After watching the video, I'm going to give graded coins a closer look. I wonder if the shift of interest away from graded coins is simply a lack of knowledge. I've learned a lot on this channel about the various forms of silver bullion. That said, I still prefer junk silver overall. My investment goal is for economic survival, not a kids college fund.
@videodude123XYZ in my opinion.. pandas,kangaroos,lunars,libertads and maples w/ privy marks etc will be a great investment going forward. theyre my numismatics. i only buy junk and eagles if i can get them at spot, but i only buy local. all though if youre looking for a rare mint coin you have to use ebay.
@videodude123XYZ Actually, you want to have a plan for both scenarios. Even if there is a total economic collapse, there will be a recovery at some point, so you want investments that will hold value for 20 to 30 years. Numismatics coins will do that because the peak prices of gold and silver will fall, just not back to their present levels. So graded coins will remain more valuable after the prices stabilize to fair market value.
great video mate , i own bullion and 90% American coins , ungraded , but i am about to purchase my first graded coin to nite , pcgs , ms 63 , this video has whipped me into a bit off excitement , which is what it's all about , respect ENGLAND , ps are old silver sterling coinage is so dreary compared to your's.
@firefox666moll Britain has some nice Coins too, I have a friend who has a beautiful set of old Sovereign and half Sovereign Coins. Morgan Dollars are a Big Heavy Silver Coin with a LOT of history (especially the Carson City ones), they've proven to be popular and hold their value very well over time -thanks for watching and commenting!
What about silver eagles?? I have been collecting them and have 2 collector books of all years inc 1996 plus another 20..Just missed buying a collector box of 500 for $21,000. last week.
Just brought some more Silver from the local Dealer last weekend. Three Chines Pandas, 2 Eagles, and a Mexican Onza that came with a nice sterling silver necklace and coin pendant holder.
While at the Dealers Shop some commotion took place because some Guy tried to sell them a couple of fake Silvertowne Rounds that he got burned on himself.
PCGS and NGC are the ONLY grading companies that are respected by everyone the world round. I would suggest folks stick with them only on graded coins. Of course this is just my opinion.
Would you say that 90% silver US coin bullion like Franklin and WL halves and especially Washington quarters are the just as safe?? i know you have Morgan dollar for numismatic value with the MS64 grades but would you say all types of condition 90% coinage is a safe buy and go up in value?
@Habeev07 I think Silver of ANY kind is a good investment at this point in time, and I also have a lot of 90% U.S. Silver -but it's basically Just Bullion value, most are common date and heavily worn so their Numismatic value is minimal. I decided on the PCGS ms 63 & 64 Dollars because they seem to have the best "Balance" between Bullion and Collectible.
thats my real fear is TSHTF, because i think silver as a decreasing availability will be a great investment under and scinerio (sp) mercs will always be recognizable and affordable for everyone to get into collecting some sort of silver, I was lucky to pick up a few hundred mercs that dealers hadn,t changed to adjust for siler price early in the summer. Ron Paul said it (i,m not a real fane) when he said he could buy a galoon of gas for a dime, a pre 64 dime that is. Great channel
@rocky315w thanks Rocky, im personally tring to diversify my Silver holdings as much as possible within the "Silver Bullion Family" and at the same time hedge it a little with Graded Silver Dollars, but I think Silver is a GREAT investment no matter what form you buy it in -take care.
I fully agree i have a few that were graded back in the 80,s and they have increased in value but not to match inflation, but I have many , some gold that are worth more today as bullion then they were as coins but not merely as much a difference as when i bought them in the 80,s. I have bought kooks for $5 over spot that are now worth 85 dollars so its a real crap shot that,s another reason i go to mercs as a rule.
@oldtimefreedom it depends on the Coin, if your Talking about an 1889 CC Dollar in EF ($2,800) then your more tied to the "Numismatic" value of the coin, if your talking about an AU 1887 Dollar ($40.00) then your more closely tied to the "Bullion" value. I chose the PCGS MS 63 & 64 Graded coins because they have an equal balance between "Collectible" and "Bullion" value, and in my opinion this makes it a better hedge coin.
I prefer mercs to everything and if you can get them for spot or just below your ahaed of game nobody wioll ever conterfit a cheap coin and nobody could afford to counterfit a merc. I recently bopught a lot of bullion 1000 mercs and 400 morgans and not one collectible unless you count some kooks and pandas.
@rocky315w Mercs and roseys (pre 64) are one of my favorites too, one thing I like about them is the small denomination will be easy to trade more accurately in a SHTF scenario.
Every coin you buy carries a premium, just try to buy one at any show or from any dealer then try to sell it to another dealer, I know what I,m paying for bullion and always know what i can sell them for. Rocky
@rocky315w that's true, especially for "Raw" Coins - however, PCGS Graded coins have become more standardized and tend to buy and sell within a very tight range -ive sold many on Ebay and have been very happy with the Results. as far as premiums, every seller is going to sell at a premium -even Bullion dealers -thanks for watching.
can you give just one sinario where silver will bottom out with demand outstriping supply. Now if your spending say 100 dollars for a coin(morgan ) or you buy three junk morgans, which would you bet is going to increase in value more, I,ll vote for the 3 morgans anyday. Please comment. Rocky
@rocky315w I do think Silver is going up, and Plain Silver Bullion will go up faster than Graded Numismatic Coins....But, don't forget the Risk=Reward factor, these Graded Coins have held their value through the years and ive had no problem selling PCGS Graded Coins, in fact, dealers trust the Grading standards of PCGS so much that they actually buy and sell these coins over the phone "Sight Unseen".
@pdlumina I guess it kinda depends on how bad TSHTF, if your talking Armageddon then Food, Water and Medicine are the way to go (I have those too ;) -thanks for watching.
The problem I have with morgan and peace dollars are the amount of fakes that are out there. I also read somewhere that there are also fake holders out there.
@dbztiki havent heard of any "Common year" PCGS fakes yet, I did hear of a guy in Michigan selling Very expensive PCGS Fakes (from China of Course), and PCGS actually went after the guy and had him arrested and prosecuted!!!
@stuzapusa it depends on the year, there are a few rarities in the SE series, most however are considered more of a "Bullion" coin than a Numismatic rarity.
