    I have been on the sidelines for the past couple of weeks. Maybe the longest I have gone without buying in recent memory in fact! Im waiting for gold to do a bit more of the following before I start adding to the stack again.

    In a year and a half, you'll be asking yourself why you bought that crap.

    I think those Scottsdales look pretty darn cool.

    Buy what you like and don't worry about off comments from the peanut gallery.

    Huh? I dont think you understand. I took my profits on those pandas, while the numismatic premiums were so strong. I basically took 17 oz of gold pandas and turned it into 21oz of AGEs. Was a terrific deal that I dont regret at all. Those Scottsdale rounds are 3rd tier at best, and just a half a step up from generic x-mas rounds IMO. Buy what you like, but beware of the ramifications.

    It's $400, I think I can live with it. It makes up 20 oz of some 3000+ of silver that I have. Thought the whole point of Metal Porn was so people could see all kinds of bullion. I'll make sure to consult with you next time to make sure it is up to your standards. I really do not give a image if you like it or not, IMHO

    image I think they look nice as well. I have a mixture of ASE, maple's, libertads, and prospetors for my rounds. If I found some Scottsdale rounds for a nice price, I'd get some of them too. Like you said, buy what you like.

    On a side note, I wish the emotions were in alphabetical order..... image

    I doubt it...Obviously you have no idea how popular that design is...Just follow Scottsdale bars and now rounds on eBay for a while and you'll "whistle a different tune." About 1 year ago, I had the same mindset as you, but it did not take long for me to change my mind. Best overall premiums on any recent issued bars ... even makes the current ASE's look bad.

    Got my rolls in several days ago, just got around in taking some pictures.

    Since when is 999 fine silver in any shape or form considered "crap"?

    I managed to buy 97 ounces of .999 silver today along with some 90% not shown

    Group photo below. Coolest piece for me is the two octagonal ounces.... the cost to make them must have been brutal.

    Actually it is a Hexagon silver oz. since it has 6 sides. I have seen that that before at a coin show. The Hexagon 1-oz silver was minted in 1980 by the Crown Mint. I see a Hamilton Mint art bar and it looks like it from the 50-bar series called the "Greatest Americans" but I am not completely sure about that. The Silver art bar that is beside what appears to be the Deak and Perera bars near the left hand side appears to be a "Nassau Balloon" silver art bar that was minted by the Madison Mint.

    Congrats on the "silver porn" purchases. image
    DISCLAIMER: I am NOT a '70's silver art bar expert but I try my best to play one on the Internet.
  • gdavis70gdavis70 Posts: 256 ✭✭✭
    You are right... there are some greatest american series in there.. 4 or 5 I think. and good point about the hexagon... image
