    I always suggest Silver Eagles for new OR long time stackers.


    Loves me some shiny!

    My preference is silver eagle tubes, then 10 oz. RCM .9999 bars.

    But, silver is silver.

    I like bars within a dollar of spot. (name brand of course) or junk silver.

    90% silver dimes, quarters, or halfs.

    ASE are solid and usually easily transferrable (sold).

    Make a couple or more date sets to make it interesting.

    I wouldn't do a date set since some years carry a higher premium. that premium may disappear in the future.

    stick to common date silver eagles with as low of a markup as possible. $2.50 over spot is the absolute most you should pay.

    At this spot, gov bars on a sale, any gov mint rounds on a sale for ozers. Anything 5+oz whatever deal is on for close to spot. Should be able to get something for cheap if you pay attention and don’t impulse shop.

    ASEs are a safe bet.

    I recommend ASE's for stacking... excellent liquidity...I do have some silver rounds, acquired because I liked the theme or design. Certainly collector bars offer premiums from other collectors...but if you are stacking with a view to the precious metals market, be careful of authenticity. Cheers, RickO
