56 ounces of silver or 1 ounce of gold.

Which is the smarter play?
Seems like my ounces of silver have a better chance of increasing in value but I like the ideal of making more room in the vault.

    Silver sounds good to me but not much room

    I like the way you think.

    Sounds like either way is fine with not much difference aside from space.

    I’d rather the gold.

    Alrighty, then thanks guys.
    That takes a shoebox down to an almost empty tub with a few clankers.
    obviously, not enough to get in the bathtub with but maybe I could just rub them on my face. 🤣

    Just buy an oz of gold, and add more silver on the dips.

    @TwoSides2aCoin
    Good plan. Basically rinse and repeat each time I have enough silver to trade for gold.

    Good Luck trying to find anybody to do the swap. I've only had one taker in the past 5 months and I'm willing to give the advantage to the trader.

    Yes but they both go up and down together. So I need to wait for the pop to sell the silver (missed the window yesterday), hold the cash then buy the gold on the next dip. That might save a few hundred help cover the premiums I paid buying the silver in the first place.

    I don’t know maybe I’m overthinking it.

    I have pretty shiny silver coming from mint and proof sets and usually sold easily on the BST in the past. Ie 56 proof Franklin raw etc. etc.
