    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.

    Governments can print currency. Only the people can print faith in it — and they’re running low on ink.

    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
