I never knew silver and gold could be so fun to collect! I only wish I could've bought silver back in 05-06 when I was making and throwing away 2k per week like a retard and silver was like 10 bucks or less.
Ron Paul has been declaring since 1971 that using gold and silver (as the U.S. Constitution states in Article I, Section 10) is the only sound currency. We are now seeing this more than ever as our Federal Reserve System currency continues to lose its value compared to the gold and silver it once contained. Currently it has lost 95% of its value.
I want to spark a debate about .925 coins and .999 coins. Obviously, .999 pure is more valuable than .925. However,...to acquire .999 you have to pay huge premiums. So let's start the debate,..at what point or price should one settle for .925 instead of .999? Where I live,..to acquire .925 I pay only about $2 above spot price,....no premiums no taxes,..very cheap. To buy .999 you pay almost double spot price including premiums, commissions, taxes and having to give ALL my personal info
@RyanB0011 No matter how well you wash your hands our bodies emit enzymes and oils that damage coins. Although the damage isn't apparent immediately, in 50 years it can affect your coins face. Either way, if you are serious about collecting get yourself a pair of white gloves, they are like $5 bucks on ebay man!
@largesatsuma lol, thats the mistake that i made when i bought my first silver coin, handled my silver eagle like i would with a worthless fiat currency, needless to say it now looks like silver from the 16th century that had just been unearthed.
You guys don't understand. This coin used to be used as actual currency. During its time it was worth 5 dollars consistently. Since most countries are not on the gold/silver standard this is just a historic coin. All future coins are just replicas with silver/gold content.
I cant wait to get my shipments of gold and silver. I will have 60 ounces of silver and a whopping 2 ounces of gold lol. I was thinking of selling my jewellery but I think I will hold all of my precious metals for the next 3-5 years and see where it goes from there.
@001MeTaBoLiC100 good idea there will be massive inflation... I just bought 2 more
2011 United States Mint America the Beautiful Quarters Silver Proof Sets for $42 each on the us mint's website.... they are 90% silver and you get 5 of them which come out to be an oz of silver in 5 nice proof coins for only 5% over the spot price of gold. why pay 50% over the spot price of gold for an american eagle proof??? The mint doesn't really make sense with their prices.
@p154831 Yeah we already saw Gold reach a new high at 1600+ a few days ago. I think Silver will eventually get close to $50.00 an ounce or higher only time will tell, you just have to be patient. I bought from silvergoldbull they are based in Canada and have great pricing just thought I would share :)
i have 2 of these 5 dollar coins from 1994, found them hidden away in my room and i dont know how the fuck i ended up with them and im from the UK aha
I am 23 and Since last year i have 100 plus of these in my colection with other types. They are my favorite, but so is NTR 10 Ounce bars, Scottsdale 1 OZ and 10 OZ stalkers. and anything else I can get my hands on. I will be buying all the way down. Or all the way up. I could see a movie, but instead i buy silver. I could go out to eat, I buy silver instead. I could get some junk food. I buy Silver instead. I could buy gagets, new computer, new clothes, beer, etc. I buy Silver instead (:

@RogueReplicant It is awesome when you get a reply to 8 month old comments (: I still maintain this, even after the steep correction. Keep collecting, and building your wealth bud (: SLA.
@StukityFarnsworth I had the courtesy to JIZZ IN MA PANTZ! I also ordering a sealed tube next week, hopefully the prices stay around 33-34 per oz until then.
@StukityFarnsworth Actually, last night early in the AM the price of silver dropped to 32.50 over here and I jumped to place my Whole tube order in just in time!
In my opinion, the most beautiful of all the silver bullion coins. And great purity. I wouldn't put it passed them to produce a 999.99 version at some point like the gold version. One thing I would say about the face value issue, it stands as a form of recognition to "official" minted money rather than a round bit of metal with a design. So perhaps it makes people feel more secure that it will be recognised as pure silver money rather than a sense of doubt hanging over it. Just a thought.
@boipinoi604 Then the face value would change every single year. What sense would that make? I don't know of any bullion coins or even circulation coins that have a face value that match there intrinsic value.
@RyanB0011 Exact;y. You just proved my point. Having a face value that does not reflect the real value is just wrong. It's better off without a face value.
@boipinoi604 But when you have a face value you have insurance. It will never be valued at under 5 dollars, ever. No face value means it could potentially be worth less than 5 dollars.
Nobody bothers with the face value it is irrelevant, but for the holder its a slight 'insurance' policy.
@RyanB0011 Hey buddy, just bumped into our old convo. You do have a point by having a face value would ensure the worth of these coins would no less than $5bucks. So I would much prefer these Canadian Maple Leafs over the American Eagles which has a face value of $1
@p154831 Mc Donald's has NO choice but to accept legal tender as long as it's Canadian gov issued coins, and with Maple leafs they would have to accept them for $5 each and that sucks as the price is just about to SKY-ROCKET...right about now!
@connectingdots1 I know that they have no choice but to accept it. However, most mcdonlad's workers have a very low intellgence level and probably would think it isn't legal tender because they've never seen one before. I just got a few canadian silver cougars when it was at $29 so I hope you are right.
@boipinoi604 Yeah I though it was odd too when I started coin collecting. American Eagles and Austrian Philharmonic have even lower face value of 1 USD and 1.5 Euro respectively.
