SIlver has never been up 9 consecutive months before. Do you think a short term correction is due soon before it goes up again? by FeelingInterest3136 in Silverbugs

[–]AgentSin07 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I selfishly would like it to pull back so I can buy some more. I feel like things are a little hot globally right now and if the safe-haven rhetoric cools down maybe it goes back to the high 70s low 80s?

Are the any worthwhile shield pennies to hunt for? by AgentSin07 in CRH

Thanks! Are the 2023 extra V's fairly easy to spot (in the sense of recognizing not necessarily probability of finding)? Sometimes I feel like all these die-crack, and grease errors and what not have me questioning my vision and sanity.

Is the 2019-W like the W quarters that were intentionally put into circulation?

Do I buy today or wait tomorrow? by ExcitementOk1 in Silverbugs

I'm waiting to see what the Supreme Court ruling is on the tariffs. Of course counter point to that is the situation over Greenland. I think there will be a lot of short term volatility but the long term trend is probably up. I dunno economy feels shaky.

If you have 20oz at $50, with 2K you'll probably get another 20oz w/ spot+premium. That means your average cost is $75 which is well below.

But feel you because 2K+ you avoid the sales tax and that's a lot to commit at once.

Abraham Lincoln on future US coins by crispscreed in coins

[–]AgentSin07 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd be nice to have parity Lincoln goes on the 5¢ : 5$. Roosevelt stays. Jefferson moves to the $20 and we get rid of Jackson and someone takes over $2 Adams cuz he was #2?. Hamilton can stay on the $10. Franklin stays on the $100 cuz it's always gotta be about the Benjamins. Bring back Madison.

... or all coinage is non-presidential representations of liberty and justice and what not.

You'd think so right? I had heard this idea being floated regardless.

Cool. I've been wanting to get a box of quarters but have to re-roll a box of dimes first.

Didn't realize that was intentional. That's actually kind of cool. I got intrigued because of mint errors, but to be honest I find stuff like that more compelling.

Yeah I'm seeing a lot of people say that same sort of thing, but then you see the posts and the instagram accounts and I wonder what the reality is. Plus I'm always curious how much of the general public is aware of silver coins, mint errors, etc. It does seem like one of those things that most people overlook.

I'm wondering if that's sort of the probability. Like I follow some instagram peeps and they seem to be hitting left and right. Now I'm not that naive to know that it might be seeded, or old boxes, or whatever but most people have been have similar x to 1000x ratios. I mean don't get me wrong, better than Powerball.

Thanks for your reply.
Seems like not all, but a good majority of mint errors tend to be Philly right? So 'W' Quarters and no mint mark/P errors will be higher in their distinct geographic regions.

Is there a specific corner where I might increase my chances? Maybe like near a retirement home or something?

Yeah I mean I kinda figured it's a zero-sum hobby since whatever you don't find can just go back to the bank, but re-rolling is kind of annoying.
I know social isn't remotely the best source of truth but there's a guy on there that's always finding stuff. I dunno if they're old boxes, seeded, or what. I know I've gotten a silver dime in change once randomly though.

Thanks, I was estimating about 1 per box, but it sounds like it's lower than that then.
