    A monster box will always be a hard sell on the forum - the obvious thing would be to break it up or fine it just doesn't shift.
    i was watching a video this morning where Steve St. Angelo and Bob Coleman were talking about prices, the retail / wholesale markets and COMEX in silver. Bob Coleman runs a US precious metal depository and Steve St Angelo is a commentator. 
    Their views are very US centric. There was no mention of the Global South and how India is vacuuming up silver at the moment. This isn't happening in their world and somehow or other Bob Coleman thinks the US stacker market is influencing the silver price. St Angelo thought people were selling silver to get into US Treasuries - which is beyond deluded.
    The price of silver is rising - there is buying pressure in the 100's and 1000's of tonnes especially from India.
    i don't actually think there are that many people here who are on the buy for silver. There is a good deal of gold and silver coming up for sale. i wonder if members are thinking now is a good time to sell and those who trade are getting metal offered to them. i don't really have any idea what it is like in the UK at the moment but i get the impression times are hard for a good few. The temptation is there to sell and so the market balance shifts. What happens on the TSF is a reflection on what is happening with private collectors but no reflection on the world. So if members are growing jaded this doesn't mean the price of silver is about to crash; there will be corrections but price rises are inevitable. It may well be the price is too rich for some people here and they are dropping out.  
    It would be interesting to have a poll - are you net buying / selling / treading water when it comes to silver.
    Personally i keep buying - some here, usually older bars and some silver inside the EU. The GS ratio is still over 85 - and this is cheap to me, so i keep topping up almost as a reflex.

    no - the leopard does not have a crown on your silver piece.

    This leopard face was on London silver between 1821/22 and 1836/37 - that's it. It has to be in that date range. A lot older than the OP initially thought.

    You had about 4 minutes to get in first. That's the way it is when silver is being sold at these prices - there are vultures circling all day long. If i hadn't been preoccupied i might have snatched this treasure first. I missed out this time but there is always another day.

    Personally I buy what I can in physical but I also have a goodly amount in gold and silver inside the Kinesis Monetary System. So i am invested in metal but at the same time I can liquidate at will. 
    I have seen TSF members post sales saying they have fallen on hard times, they have overspent and the car has gone kaput. Then they have to sell quickly and I have seen sales at fire sale prices. This is sad but it is life and I have taken advantage at times. 
    Kinesis has worked for me. When I took residency in Spain a few years ago I needed to show quite a few grand in my bank account and pretty quickly - i think i remember the cash had to have been there for 3 months prior to assessment of the Residencia application, so i sold some KAU (gold) and transferred the cash in. I proved the funds and then moved it back. Yes there were some costs but nothing comes for free.
