A milestone 500 t oz

[ifing]

After joining the PM market, and the forums discussing it. I have started to buy more bullion/bars, semi-numismatic coins, but still have main focus in the numismatic area.I have redone my spreadsheet for my coin collection to also show the PM content in the coins.

This month I have reach and past 500 troy ounce of silver, more exactly 539t oz.

Wonder if that makes me more a stacker then a collector now?

[JunkBond]

congratulations on reaching that milestone stacker

[Agpanda]

Congrats!

500 toz is great goal, how much is 999?

And yes, you are now a certified stacker

[ifing]

I have no easy way to see the total of each silver finesse. I think I would need to make a whole new spreadsheet to sort that out. There are from crappy un peso coins with .100 to jubilium coins with .999 in.

Wow. That’s some serious weight. 

[ifing]

Can also say I have coins from 59 different countries

Yes this is a decent weight of silver. Well done. 

i have an Excel file for my coins. i colour code different types so i can see at a glance what is junk silver, bars, coins etc. The software works out the running total of silver weight with each addition. i would have no idea how much i had without this file, i ran out of fingers and toes to count some time ago.

Congratulations mate. I think we are sitting Almost identical for weight but sure you will have more Numis in your stack. Think I have 1 proof. Have been eyeing up a roll of anniversary Brits for months now so may leap frog you very soon? Keep on stacking mate, there is little real cash in your country I understand!

Well I surprised myself, with how much I really had. But most of the coins I did not buy because they contained silver. REAL money contained PM back in the days.

With that we come in to your other question, my favourite. That is not a simple question. I have so many, I really love coins with shields. I sign of power, glory, lost struggles.

But I also love corcs/alligators, and there I have many lovely coins. Also the Privateer series, or the the Swea, or the Legends of Asgard series, or the Libs, or...

There is no end.

For storage I have choosen a expensive solution, bank vault. 850SEK/year ( ~ £78). But that was the best solution I could think of for the gold and silver bullion coins. But I need another one. Then you have to try trick another bank that you will not store money/PM or such things because they don't allow it.

[Pipers]

Welcome you are  a STACKER, we and i now include you are a dieing breed on this forum!!

Really congratulation well done, it can take a long time to get to the big numbers.

Be careful. Although some may consider me paranoid be careful. If the bank locks the doors you will not be able to get your coins. If the banking system collapses they will steal your coins.

A “Reasonable” Confiscation

The EU has declared that a “reasonable” confiscation might be all deposit amounts over €100,000, but there can be no certainty that they will ultimately limit their confiscation to that amount. Further, the IMF has recently run another confiscatory idea up the flagpole—an across-the-board percentage-based confiscation on all deposits. At this point, there can be no certainty as to how many different confiscations will occur, let alone what the total rape of deposits will be.

Banks are now a time bomb for depositors. Wealth storage in safe deposit boxes looks to become a thing of the past.

Indeed @sixgun, surely the whole reason for stacking physical is to be in control of your assets.

Yes, I'm aware of the risk. But I don't know how to else handle storage of the most valuable.

We also had an incident here in Sweden, a bank closed down the vault section,and one person said he didn't received the notification and lost all of the cash he stored there.

i said in a previous thread, where i used to live i had a small section of skirting board [plint]. i could pull it away and i had some gold coins wrapped up and hidden there. No-one would ever know it was there. Even if the house were burgled it would be safe. You have over 500 oz of silver. This is more difficult to hide but it is not so much. If you started investing more in gold i feel sure there is a place to hide it so it is safe. The other alternative is to have a safe. You can get wall safes that are accessed from an electrical socket, there are floor safes, there are way to hide your valuables that would not easily be found and you are in control of. When you have a very big stack it becomes a significant headache but you are not there yet.

Nice stack good to see in times of low sentiment like this that there are still those with the wisdom and determination to stack and not get suckered in by the old hype and gouge. Well done brother

Hi

I am back in the UK now, have been since 2015. Still buying silver, I have a spreadsheet but must admit I have not kept it up to date, but I will be around the 2500 oz mark. Just gone back to work in the Petrochemical sector again contracting. I am still around and visit from time to time. Just bought my eldest son a 10oz Australian tiger coin for his 40th in December. I could write an essay on where and what I have done but I won't.

Cheers

I would be interested in seeing the spreadsheet format.
