Can't recall if this has been done before or not, so I apologize if it has been. I thought I'd create a thread where you set a goal for yourself in "stacking" and acheived it at some point. You no longer have to own it, but you DID have to own it at one point...that's the only stipulation, you had to have owned it at one point and of course since there's no way for anyone to tell for sure I suppose, you're on the honor system. Fair enough?, and I'll state the obvious, pictures help and it's only for silver please.
Doesn't have to be rarity, can be quantity of common stuff. It's a whatever you set out to acheive in silver stacking and at some point you got there thread.
I'm sure there's some that have some incredible collections and thought this would be a way to share your acheivement in collecting.
Here's some goals in silver stacking I set out to accomplish and did for the level of collecting I can afford.
I once went crazy an accumulated over 150 of these chunky 1 oz Amark bars. Here's a pic at the point of owning 126 of them.
Again I once went crazy and had to own every 3 oz Foster bar ever made. This is them, there are no more, the complete Set.
I purchased 4 of these complete 1969 Foster Hercaimy Sets before I widdled it down to the one I wanted to keep. I still own this one and do have the original boxes it came in. Incredible electric blue/green toning.
I really regret letting go of this complete Set, but was offered what I felt was a "can't turn it down" price.

Is it really that hard to take a few pictures and upload them here?
Isn't it a good idea to have a few pics of what you own for Insurance purposes if nothing else?
Are some so paranoid that they think if they post it the Govt. is going to come seize what they have?
Are some so paranoid that they think if they post it thieves are going to come steal what they have?
Another idea that I thought would liven this place up a bit is one that the majority seems to not want to participate in
<< <i>Hard to believe with all the collections that are said to be owned here are by a majority that apparently is unwilling to show it off.

I have pics of my stack, don't cry because you don't.

Who's crying? I get it, it's a personal choice to share. Apparently there's a bunch of selfish people here since the thread didn't get much response, or was it because of who the idea came from? (sarcasm)
Either way is fine by me. It was just an attempt to liven up what has become a hang out for grand political schemes and how they relate to PM's rather than showing a cool piece or two of silver that is claimed to be owned.
I view my metals as an account. So posting pics of my PMs would be as personal as posting bank/investment statements. That's just me.
I do from time to time participate in metal porn threads.

I've been into gold as of late.
I knew it would happen.
