Great post. I never bought those bags of guilders or rijksdaalders but those are the cheapest form of silver normally. I bought only Philharmonics and all with the silver mountain in Netherlands. They also buy back at spot all normal bullion coins.
(My upvote is low nowadays as I took out most of my Hive)
Well that was exactly the comment I was looking for, hence nevermind that upvote but knowing that this is indeed the cheapest way to build a stack was really what I needed to know.
But I should have known you were Dutch after reading @thisismylife s post with the package from The Netherlands, but what makes it more fun is that you own a Spanish casita. Not sure if I mentioned it anywhere in the post but those package from the OG stacker were sent to Spain as itยดs been my country of residence for quite some years now. But that makes having these guldens and rijksdaalders here even more fun.
Anyway nice to meet you and thanks for the very useful comment, I probably get me some more of those coins when I am in the Netherlands this summer because finding it here in the south of Spain for some reason is not that easy.
Very interesting to see your beginning story. My positive outlook on life stops me stacking very much. ๐ I probably need to read more rich dad poor dad..
Wow, that's pretty awesome! I don't think I know anyone who would ever leave anything to me. Not that valuable anyway. Maybe records or something like that, but that's about it! Best think you can do is keep stacking! This is a great community!
I was told it is a great community indeed. Been lurking for long, but I think I got the silver and gold fever now so I felt it was time to finally join the stacker party.
The first rule of Stacking; Tell No One.
I respect that.Welcome to #silvergoldstackers@whywhy I'm glad to see you step out from the shadows into the light. In real life around Coin Clubs and Collectable shows there are always a few anonymous Stackers who quietly hover around the gold or silver coin dealers, they often offer a price between the buy and sell price set by a locally know retailer. A few whispers, a nod or two, a deal is made and the buyer leaves the building all within minutes.
All of us Stack more or less the same reasons, being aware of our crumbling economic system we each prepare in our own way. My journey started by enjoying the quality time with my Father and his silver coin collection.
Having a Mentor is priceless, I learned real economics, getting my own financial house in order, and starting small and modest goals. I found learning the history behind certain coins turns my crank, making me a numismatist as well as collector. The fun part of Stacking. While we may share a silver coin; that's passed down by a grand parent, acquired by a trade, bought at an auction, gifted from a friend or dug up on a beach, we believe that in all it's forms, silver and gold has been always Real Money.
First of thanks for a wonderful welcome!
Secondly, I love the comment.
Thirdly, thanks for giving me a new word: numismatist, I will make good use of that one.
And last but not least, the real money reference, that one is valuable and will also be re-used.
Really awesome comment but with Raven in a name, I guess I should expect nothing less. Itยดs my son's 2nd name ;)
I liked your story about the OG Stacker and how he impacted your life. He sounds like a good friend and mentor. Many of us in the SilverGoldStackers (SGS) community also see the charm and value in old coins and their fascinating history. Thanks for a delightful read! ๐
Thank You! l I am not gonna spoil the next post but he was a great guy indeed, now you bring up the point where I struggle...old coins history, I really hope to get that one day. I am a business baby, always have been. Been stacking sats before I started sticking silver but I never truly got in it for the tech. Same with stacking coins, so far. I am in it because I do not trust the world and where itยดs going, but hopefully I will see that beauty one day....more to come on that next week !LOLZ

I believe the day will come when One Ounce of Silver will get me Two Ounces of Gold... So, if I had to sell some of my Stack to pay Bills, I'd sell my Gold before ever thinking of selling my Silver...
That's a great post! I can understand not selling, especially something left to you. I'm not selling that is for sure, it's nice to have like minded people around, that's what's great about our community. Keep on stacking up the shiny!

Now you made me curious! I am sure you have a post to explain that POV
Yes... Most of my posts are about the U.S. Monetary Correction...

Thanks mate. Planning on stacking for quite some time and this community has been really nice so I am sure to hang around.
That's one sexy bag!
Unlike with my crypto bags, with this one I truly feel a Bag Holder!
