What's your definition of a PM stacker?

How do you define a true stacker? By quantity of PM's accumulated? By quality of PM's accumulated? Is there a universally accepted definition of a stacker? What say you?

Purchase of more than one piece of silver (one piece is not a stack) that was procured to protect against loss of dollar purchasing power. One that has a collection of silver coins is a collector, not a stacker. One who speculates with silver prices strictly for profit is not a stacker, he is a speculator.

I define a stacker as being someone who buys physical precious metals in the form of bars, coins, rounds, scrap, etc on a regular basis without regard to any collector premium over the bullion value. Being a stacker does preclude one also being a collector of rare coins or rare vintage bullion bars, rounds, etc that is worth a premium over their bullion value.

I’d say a stacker is more focused on quantity over quality. By that definition, I am not a stacker - I have a collection. It is stackable however.
Systematic accumulation.

I was there then I became a phat old dude. Not counting the paper SLV I'm probably a bit short if measured in the physical gutter. Time for a diet and some trips to the gym. RGDS!

Wooooha! Did someone just say it's officially "TACO™" Tuesday????
That’s 100% me.
I’m more of a collector, but a lot of the stuff I own could be considered a “stack“

I'm More of a collector, but 98% is vintage silver.

I like the older stuff as well.
I view myself as both a stacker and a coin collector. I long stacked generic gold and silver based only on price - available funds dictated purchases as the metals themselves were readily available. Simultaneously I acquired vintage bullion bars that I occasionally post here where collector interest trumps melt value. My signature line $2.50 PCGS/CAC set is numismatic - when I can add coins depends more on availability than cost.
