One of the craziest things about bitcoin & crypto in general is how the elephant in the room gets ignored; the price can be easily manipulated. There's so much evidence that most of the volume on these exchanges is faked with wash trading. If a handful of groups are able to consolidate most of the bitcoin supply, they can manipulate the price.

We already know the spot price of precious metals can be manipulated through derivatives and stuff, but there's a good chance that will come to an end, just a matter of when. With crypto it's completely different though. The price of BTC seems to correlate to the stock market but there's usually no reason for the crazy pumps other than hype and/or wash trading from whales and/or exchanges that have their bitcoin supply divided among many different wallets. There hasn't been any widespread adoption at all, most people should of recognized how worthless it is during the first crash. But now it seems like it's being pumped to distract retail investors.

Think about how hard it is to actually talk with the crypto crowd in general about gold/silver. They laugh and point at the constantly pumping price of btc and say "look at how much btc has appreciated against the dollar compared to gold!" and while of course a pumping price doesn't mean it's proven itself as a true hedge against inflation, it's extremely difficult to argue with that line going up. It's the perfect distraction. Pump, pull back a bit, pump, pull back a bit on some news, huge pump; make it seem like there's real trade volume and keep people enamored with it. The banking cartel knows the dollar is on it's way out and is having a hard time selling the "economy is doing great" narrative in the media. So what to do ? Funnel that dollar rebellion into something the general public believes is "decentralized" and outside of central banking control.

yes if it wasn't for bitcoin, PMs would have skyrocketed by now. total psyop. but we will win in the end. there are real world pressures that will reveal PM's true price. conversely, there's no reason why BTC can't just dump back to $10k if enough whales (which includes the US government and other unsavory parties) want it to

It's also why guys like Peter Schiff get more attention than someone like Andrew Maguire. Peter is one of the major faces for precious metal bulls, he's one of the first personalities people see when looking at the precious metals discussion online and on TV. But Peter doesn't really do or say anything interesting other than gloat about gold when the spot price is up and he actively antagonizes the crypto community, especially on twitter. While Andrew Maguire on the other hand, is an actual whistleblower who's a big contributor to first revealing JP Morgan's fraudulent activity. Andrew doesn't get nearly the amount of attention that doomer gold bulls like Peter Schiff and Mike Maloney do, which is one of the main reasons normies take one look at the gold/silver stacking community and have a hard time taking the accusations of COMEX manipulation seriously.
Andrew doesn't make big grandiose price predictions, his videos are long, drawn out analysis of what's going on with metals on the global level that most people, even many stackers, don't find nearly as interesting as the chauvinistic attitude of youtube channels like Wallstreet Silver. If you look up Andrew's wikipedia page, it's entirely focused on his activity as a whistleblower and nothing else.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrew_Maguire_(whistleblower)

There are so many subtle distractions, so many different voices in the stacking community but only a handful actually have knowledge of what's happening at a macroeconomic level. It's why nobody in the stacking community is talking about the BRICS+ meeting coming up this october which is hinted at pushing forward with gold revaluation. Guys like Peter are still obsessing over the changes in spot price. Only real heads understand the current spot price doesn't matter when half the world is preparing to agree on a revaluation of gold.

>how do I get a fair price for them?
Most local coin stores offer reasonable amount, depending on what you have, and can explain their rational for the price of each item. It's okay to shop around if you don't like what you hear.
>>
>>58428342
Nice work. Feel good about your purchase, and never doubt yourself. Most financial advisers would feel comfortable with as much as 10% of your wealth in precious metals. Most in this community would also argue that the more the better, regardless of any other factors.

Unlike many other things, silver and gold are relatively easy to resell if you ever need, but try not to overextend yourself.

between now and october we might see some serious shit lads. BRICS is openly talking about their new stablecoin backed by gold. They've been announcing new membe and have spent the last decade loading up their vaults. What needs to happen now is a revaluation of gold. People laughed at this but it's becoming more and more real, they got the Saudis and Iranians sitting at the table. I hope this turns out to be a nothingburger but it genuinely feels like big things are in motion.

I'm assuming the percents you gave are for fiat values, not mass ratios.
For allocation, I'd say you're heavy on the copper. I'm guessing you got a good deal, or robbed a house of its plumbing, so maybe that doesn't count. I like your other ratios.
If I were starting over, I'd go more heavily into gold. I'm at 66:1 for Au:Ag mass ratio. You're at 43:1.

Heck if I know, I'm just another schizo, but some are speculating it's going to be an overnight thing with the price of gold. They really can't peg a currency to gold while the price can be manipulated by the western paper market, so it's a 100% necessary step. Based on what Russia and China have openly talked about so far, they're likely going to publish independent audits of their gold reserves, ultimately putting pressure on the US to do the same. We know for a fact China has been upping their arbitrage in an effort to suck in as much gold and silver from comex/lbma as they can. There's also notable silver buying from India, over 2200 tons in feb of this year alone. Physical demand for silver has taken over price discovery, premiums have stayed above 10% and remained consistent despite the spot price getting beaten down. So anyone who said silver decoupling from the spot price had already started when premiums increased and stayed that way - were most likely correct.
>>
Is it worth buying some metals living in Aus?

>>58431845
that gold buying is to pay back real estate debts and foreign creditors suing through the worlds central bank. China is not fucking around and any cent given to them spells America's doom

of course, you have fiat like everyone else. infact a large majority of silver bullion coins i see available are from aus. pic rel.

says, silver price has decoupled from the spot price, premiums are large right now and in the UK we have 20% taxes on top of that, so you need to find people selling it for less.

This is too much fun. Anyone else accumulating historical coins now that they're basically being sold for their bullion value? They all seem to be listed for the same prices they were being sold for a year ago, when bullion spot was 20% less. A 4% premium on a coin with historical value is just too good to pass up.

Newest of newfags here. What type of % overhead do you find acceptable when buying bullion? If a coin is worth $100, what is the highest you'll pay for it?

>>58433287
Let me clarify:
A 1oz silver bar on Apmex runs you $2.49 over spot, or roughly 9% over spot.

Why the difference? And what are you willing to pay?

I'm just trawling the Norwegian equivalent of craigslist. I must admit only a few of these were bought at such low premiums, the 5Reichsmark, the DDR Hegel coin and ofc Kennedy and Washington were all bought at pretty high premiums (especially the Hegel one). The florins and half crowns averaged a 25% premium.

The Swedish/Norwegian coins were the ones with a very low premium (the 2kr was actually 15% under spot), the 10kr had a 4% premium, and there are more listings like exactly like that, so I assumed most people could find historical coins from their respective countries at equivalent premiums.

India and China (over a third of the world population) are encouraging their citizens to buy silver now. Big industry manufacturers like Tesla are funding silver mines to secure their own supply because they're unable to acquire it otherwise.
Keep stacking and keep your eyes on those premiums boys.

Not that dude, but I think it's a pic of a gold bar with tungsten or similar metal inside. Mimics the weight of the bar but increases profit margins of the chinese (or whoever) that sold it. This is why I generally buy from my LCS or one of the big distributors like APMEX.

I think you're on your way. Most here would encourage any amount. I think most here would also encourage maintaining the current gold/silver ratio. The old Silver Ends the Fed kids would suggest 1:100 ratio, meaning 1oz gold and 100 oz silver for each member of your household, but it's whatever you like.

At a bare minimum, you should be putting at least 10% of your income into precious metals.

Attention, /pmg/ retards -- you have all been duped into buying archaic rocks that produce nothing and will make you poor. You have the mindset of inefficient 17th century mercantilists whose economic position died as a result of Adam Smith and capitalism. It turns out that actual wealth is defined as the abundance of goods and services a nation has to produce happiness and welfare. When your needs are met, THAT is wealth. Wealth does not come from owning gay rocks. Even if the USD were to collapse, too few people today value silver and gold as "real money" to ever take off as "real money" again. You all live in a bubble and deserve to stay poor until you realize you've been had.

And if you think we are ever going back to a gold standard, think again. The reason the US and so many other nations took themselves off a gold standard is because metal-backed currency stifles economic prosperity i.e. as economies grow, so does the money supply. Therefore it makes no sense to tie money to a scarce resource like gold or silver. When money is liberated from PMs, wealth goes up for everyone.

Did you know banks don't even stack silver because it's too volatile? LOL but go ahead and keep stacking useless rocks. The PM exchanges make a fortune off you retards! HAHAHAHAHA!

some believe that we will return to the gold standard?
Not me anyway.

some people think they will become rich with their coins?
Not me anyway.

Some people think they will be able to sell their coins to other citizens who don't even know how to tell a man from a woman?
Not me anyway.

the first reason why I bought metals (in 2009) was in anticipation of the freeze and the drain on savings, and that is indeed what is going to happen, at least in Europe the governments don't even hide it.

The second reason is to get my savings out of the clutches of the banks before we can no longer do it, and that is also in progress.

But you should try to understand what these metals are used for, you should discuss with breeders, farmers, in short the real professions, they will explain to you that in the event of a financial and monetary problem, they will prefer gold and gold. money rather than a piece of paper or a digital token whose value is not real.

These people feed us, and these people have always known real money.

You lack historical culture, open some books instead of wasting your time here.

Hey I'm back, just received another 3oz of silver (Britannias). I'm thinking of buying an ounce of gold next, would that be a good idea for a beginner stacker such as myself? I kinda want to get a Buffalo but the premiums on those seem really high, at least here in Canada. Might just get a generic bar or something instead.

Does jewelry count as part of an inflation hedge? I have a few ounces of pure gold in the form of inherited jewelry, mostly 14k bracelets and necklaces, TONS of rings I haven't bothered valuing in the 10-14k range and a bit over a troy oz of pure gold in some 18k chains and bracelets, and some 22-24k pieces coming soon for super cheap. I know 22k+ is preferred but if you just have a few ounces of pure gold lying around in old jewelry it's the gold that can be extracted that counts right? I know jewelry guys (maybe not coin guys) don't give a damn if a Cuban chain is in 10 14 or 18 as long as it's got an ounce of gold in (and they usually have close to 2 or more because of the nature of Cuban chains being very thick and heavy)

Also thinking of getting Britannia 1/10s in gold every now and then because they're cheap.Thoughts on getting 1/10s vs 5 gram generic rounds in gold? Thinking of leveling out my gold treasure pile with a ton of little coins since it's what I can afford right now, and of course silver coins.

I mean I know there's a lot of nuance with the price of silver fluctuating by a few cents every few hours and coin shops are really autistic about this coin vs that coin for verification purposes but I figure if I get it from a quality mint and it's pure gold or silver that's all that really matters right? I only have a few ounces of silver, I'm getting more, I have some sterling jewelry and I'm gonna start getting a couple ounces each month, probably rounds or eagles depending on what's available for cheap where I normally look for gold and silver.
>>
>>58441087
>Does jewelry count as part of an inflation hedge?
sure. the gold has to go up a lot though, to offset the jewelry premium you probably paid

Vast majority of it is inherited so it's free money if I ever needed to get rid of it though I'd rather not. As far as premiums I have family who can get pure gold in Asia for way cheaper than the in west. I just decided to value what I could of scrap jewelry I had and I came to around 32 grams divided among 4 18K chains and close to 2 ounces more in 14k. I have so many rings with various stones I haven't even tried valuing.
>>58441122
What dealer do you recommend? I had it in my head to just get rounds if I can to avoid any possible risks with having a government mint attached to metal so they can claim ownership through some maritime admiralty law type legalism.

You get into diminishing returns because refining costs go up sharply below 22k. Depending on the alloy and the scrap guy, you could reasonably eat a 30% discount vs gold content on 10k.

>>58441129
>so they can claim ownership through some maritime admiralty law type legalism
These coins are high enough gold content that you could refine them into legal bullion in an apartment if it somehow came to that.

true but you should be selling it as jewelry, not scrap gold. then you can add a hefty premium to it. of course, it has to be good jewelry, not some ugly piece of shit lol

10k tends to be kinda trashy though

>>58441273
>>58441292
Eh I honestly don't even count 10k as part of my hedge but I know shops will still buy heavy or high quality 14k chains and flip them. The majority of my gold is in 15+ gram 18k, 10-30 gram 14k chains, some bracelets and bangles of both around the 10 gram area and some old 21/22 and 24k pieces.

I like Krugs but I will NEVER seek out shit like silver eagles unless I find one lying around for cheap, I'll get whatever is cheapest. When it comes to silver I just want as much pure metal as possible. When it comes to gold I'll be going no lower than 22k from now on and probably get fractionals regularly. 20 rounds are like what around 600 more or less in silver so a 1/10 or 5er in gold is like 10 ounces. Whatever. I like yellow rock

USPS makes me nervous, and for good reason. I caught the delivery driver pretending to deliver my silver today, went out and picked it up from him directly as he was filling out the "attempted to deliver" sticker.

APMEX had a sale of random mint silver 1oz coins, so I picked up 20 at roughly 2% over spot. Looks like I got a tube of 20 Samoan 2023 Green Lanterns.

gold will crash.
adjusting for inflation, silver stays roughly constant.

>>58446512
both is more secure as a hedge and silver has potential to gain you some money even if its a gamble's chance
easier for some people to afford a few ounces of silver a month than a chunk of a dub or 2k for smaller fractions or a zip of gold
