what was your first oz?

[alec86]

So guys what was your first 1 oz silver coin and what made you pick that one over the rest?

 

Well the first oz I brought was a 2013 Suriname $10, don't really know why I went for it I just liked the satin finish to it which to me made it stand out for the rest. the dutch mint which produced the coin was shut down after it came to light that it was producing counterfeit £1 coin which I suppose makes the coin a little bit more interesting   

 

The words "SERVA ME SEVABO TE" translate to "Save me and I will save you"

I don't have a clue what my first coin was, and I don't even know why I would have bought it.

I must have been bored on eBay [emoji1]

First silver was more than an ounce, I got what proved to be a disappointingly small 100g cast metalor bar. First 1oz coin was the ever-popular ASE which seemed far more impressive despite being a third of the weight.

Mine was this carded 1oz 2000 RAM roo plus another 40 odd silver 1 ozers bought at the same time.

My first silver purchase was 3 20Oz Perth Mint bars. Because the were lovely! lol Paid a fortune for them though. 2½ years ago! Sadly I don't have them any more as I swapped them for gold in order to facilitate travelling back to the UK. My first silver coin? Mmm, not sure. Probably a Kookaburra. I fell in love with them as soon as I saw them, had several at one point, but gave a few away as gifts last year.

I afraid I also do not know what my first oz of silver was, as I bought lots the first time.

 

I was also selling them on eBay but then thought bugger this I like these I will keep them ALL for myself.

 

AND I HAVE DONE EVER SINCE.

A 2014 maple leaf.

2013 Philharmonic together with 250g Hareus bar. It was a safe bet at the beginning and I remember wondering how can a bar be so small and so heavy

A 2014 Brit, from a little cash for gold concession shop (now closed) at Trago Mills near Newton Abbbot. I'd stumbled onto some silver stacking videos on you tube, a few weeks before and saw this while out shopping. Paid about £24 for it. Thought I'd got a bargain, (I hadn't), and 6 months later, I've got over 250 oz's of silver and 3 oz's of gold.

 

Bloody hate going shopping.........

Gold - 1oz kruggerand

Silver - 1oz silver maple

First silver coins I bought were the controversial £20 for £20 Royal Mint coins, fortunately they led

me to looking into silver for investment purposes so not all bad.  My first 1oz coin, a tube full in fact,

was the boring and sensible Maple leaf.

I bought some maples in 2012. Made the same rookie mistake.

[garthy]

First silver buy was 10 100 gram metalor bars in 2009, first coin was a tube of maples in 2011 for £28 each, i know

Just looking at silver to go maples now £12.50, funny thing is if I had've bought a roll of lunar rabbits then I'd still be about even, lesson learnt.

[UKSILVERCOINS]

First silver oz was purchased in spitalfields market. A 1819 George III Crown.

Hooked from that day onwards

Actually this was my first silver coin, albeit only 50% and a junk coin

it lead me on the road to becoming a stacker.

A coin you can slip on your finger? That's neat.
