It’s FRIDAY!...any new metal for the new year?

Downtown1974 · January 18, 2019 6:33AM

We haven’t had a metal porn thread for 2019 yet, so I thought I would drum up some business here. Let’s see what you’ve added to the stack so far this year. Been a slow start for me because we are remodeling our den, but I did pick up some gold and silver.

asheland · January 18, 2019 7:53AM

Nice!

I’ve only gotten my Golden Analytical bar this year so far:

Ahhh, you got me on the Draw...
I got a couple copper bars as novelties, but need to image them still... oh and my item in the "other friday thread"

Cheers!

I've finally broken the spell and have some cool stuff coming. But it's probably still a week or more out

In the mean time, here's one of my favorite "bullion plus" targets: Late-19th to early 20th century Mexican silver...

ricko · January 18, 2019 8:55AM

You guys are out of the gate and running.... I have not acquired any PM's yet this year.... Still waiting for Weiss to sell one of his silver tankards... Cheers, RickO

asheland · January 18, 2019 9:37AM

Oh yeah, and I got the toast rack, too. Forgot about that one...

WildIdea · January 18, 2019 10:03AM

My purchases so far this year are actually cast iron medals from Weimar Republic, not technically precious metals but definitely precious medals, lol

tneig · January 18, 2019 10:52AM

Lots and Lots of these. Good on the C/S ratio:

Ended up buying 2 rolls (any denomination) from APMEX using eBay's 15% coupon. Net was 10x fv delivered. Here's what I got:

Two rolls of Washington's in mostly VF/XF condition.

Mesh · January 18, 2019 3:26PM

it's been kind of slow, not to many good deals to be found in the new year .

asheland · January 20, 2019 5:56PM

Great stuff everybody!

Stuart · January 20, 2019 6:08PM

Purchased this attractive 5 Ounce Silver Octagonal Proof Panama-Pacific Medal for a small premium over Bullion at this weekend’s Houston SW Money Show in Conroe, Texas.

It’s a beautiful design that commemorated the 100 year Anniversary of the original 1915 (MCMXV) Gold $50 Pan Pac Union.

asheland · January 21, 2019 9:21AM

I’ll go ahead and drop it in here too since it’s likely my last purchase for a little while.

mapleman · January 22, 2019 4:45AM

I think I mistakenly posted this in US coins. $15.60 per with bucks
first bullion of the year.

cmanbb · January 26, 2019 3:25PM

I've been adding to my poured gold pile lately.

Looking for more if anyone is selling.

Weiss · January 26, 2019 6:20PM

THAT is an absolute fantasy treasure pile, @cmanbb

Weiss · January 26, 2019 6:35PM

Finally received the piece I'd been waiting for:

1849 First Republic Mexico gold 8 escudo
Guanajuato mint

My odd size/manufacturer collection of poured bars.

jmski52 · February 8, 2019 5:28PM

ooops, I did it again. I bought some more gold this afternoon.

rte592 · February 9, 2019 8:11AM

I really haven't been out much or seen any odd looking bars yet this year to add to the casino themed section.
cmanbb, I do have an extra bar to fill that empty spot in your picture.

cmanbb · February 9, 2019 8:30AM

@rte592 nice. Do you have any poured bars?

cmanbb · February 9, 2019 9:39AM

Very busy past 7-10 days buying up these w series 10oz bars

Downtown1974 · February 9, 2019 10:44AM

Great looking bars fellas. Been focusing on gold lately but I did grab this piece the other day. An impulse buy that I thought was neat.

Must say you have quite the collection.
I really like the colonial bar.
I picked up a few JADE assay bars at my local G&S store last year.

Downtown1974 · February 10, 2019 9:43AM

Love those Jade bars. Super chunky.

asheland · February 10, 2019 9:58AM

Awesome bars in here!
I got a plain Sunshine 5oz yesterday, nothing exciting, just adding ounces...

Jinx86 · February 10, 2019 11:50AM

My stack of refined scrap is growing. Not sure what the end goal is. Will be having a major refiner convert it to 999 market good product eventually.

tneig · February 10, 2019 1:06PM

Can't say that I am not crazy stinking JEALOUS.
BECAUSE I AM!
Nice....

Go for one big trapezoid bar with a custom hallmark! Or a run of stackable 1oz ers! Whatever you do, don't stop now!

LukeMarshall · February 10, 2019 2:53PM

Here is the image of that copper bar I picked up the other week.

I really like this little thing, and the serial number matches the atomic number, nice coincidence.

CannuckCollect · February 13, 2019 6:11PM

I got 2 1/4 Troy Ounce RCM Maple Leaf Coins one on new year'seve and one a week ago, Random Year from the Bank I got a 1985 and a 1994 ... although after I get 1 more I'looking to trade and add cash for a britania bar or coin as fractional coins are a little small for my liking but fun to get while saving for the full Oz

Downtown1974 · February 13, 2019 6:14PM

Welcome Cannuck! Nice looking gold!

If you are a member of the VFW, the last magazine had an U.S. Money Reserve offer to purchase 2019 ASEs for $15/each. Max order is one 20 coin roll. Nice addition to the silver bullion stockpile.
