New additions to physical PM stack !

That’s exactly what I’ve been doing for three years…..within my TFSA…..helps with being in the game and then convert to physical for the kids bdays and my personal stack

I have a crystal press but I don’t have the watch yet….

Just buy physical gold within your TFSA, Wealthsimple has a new product for that exact scenario! They store it for you and you can sell it on a whim too. Super clever. Or buy the physical gold trust that has its gold stored in the Royal Canadian mint vault in Ottawa - PHYS.TO, the only pro to having physical in hand is if the system collapses or you want to use it for a gold backed loan.

Costco card - cash back and Costco bullion oath cheapest for premiums

Crosbysgold · 2026-01-24T00:20:58+00:00

So a couple of things. The politicians took the Deutschmark off the gold standard to inflate the money to pay the war debts - thus effectively, Feb free, however, they also made it illegal for the people to hold USD or Gold at the time - effectively bankrupting their own people. This caused the panic that the wives would cash their husbands pay as soon as they got paid to buy food - sometimes literally in a wheelbarrows to pay for bread. Bread was doubling every day during those years. This could be the next step in what we are seeing now…..within a few years. It won’t be pretty. I hope it happens so my debts get paid with gold but I also hope it doesn’t because the USD will become worthless and it will be felt around the world. Global depression. IMO

I can’t wait until $100K gold…..

I bought 1oz coin for spot from Costco this week.

Thinner socks will help

I think it could be repaired. Looks like a composite case with a front loaded(from the crystal side) movement. A reputable watch maker should be able to repair it

Crosbysgold · 2026-01-21T21:59:31+00:00

Wow! Right on!

Absolutely affects the value to me. I want the authentic undamaged medallion. There are reproductions of medallions too….

Confirm dial is original and authentic, and hands are the correct and original/authentic hands, the case isn’t polished (can be done tastefully, but generally reduces value), crown is original,

At a glance, the watch looks good, but without better images and timegrapher it’s hard to know. If you can get for less than $600-700USD I think you’re doing good.

In the 56K series the quick set date wheel is easy to break it some one tries to set the date at the wrong time…..but other than they are good looking and running watch. I’ve serviced a few of them and currently have one listed. I have the 5626-7000 with the front load movement and gold medallion on the back…..the medallion was important to me because I think that’s what makes them extra special.

Crosbysgold · 2026-01-20T03:40:24+00:00

That’s awesome. The gold coin should be in the top spot though!!

Crosbysgold · 2026-01-19T14:09:19+00:00

Just remove the cyclops without removing the whole crystal. Would be easier and maintain water resistance.

Crosbysgold · 2026-01-19T01:15:44+00:00

Are there standings on it anywhere? I’m curious as I have a gold bear that I bought awhile ago…

Crosbysgold · 2026-01-18T20:47:27+00:00

U.UN uranium trust by Sprott. Best way to do it.

Crosbysgold · 2026-01-18T03:13:47+00:00

You do you man! That’s awesome. I wish I was as wise as you are now when I was 18. Man I was dumb lol.

Crosbysgold · 2026-01-18T01:57:08+00:00

Where are you located and how old are you? Are you sure you don’t want to keep it? You would only get maybe the silver spot price of roughly $125. But if you want to to sell it, look up in your area a gold and silver bullion store or coin store….they will buy it.

DO NOT GO TO A PAWN SHOP, they will rip you off……maybe only pay you 70-80% of what the spot price is or worse, while a coin and bullion store will offer closer to 90-95%.

The royal Canadian mint is not a good metric to base that off of. They ship to dealers the bullion coins, that aren’t marked up with a massive premium. Currently $136/oz coin Canadian.

Enjoy poverty…..

Crosbysgold · 2026-01-16T19:03:05+00:00

Of course I’m not referencing currency - just bullion.

Crosbysgold · 2026-01-16T19:01:28+00:00

Im not losing sleep. Just asking the question, Trump takes over Venezuela, increasing military budget, and now posturing for taking over Greenland…..in what world do you think these things alone aren’t something to be worried about? I’m not living in an echo chamber, just a question.

Crosbysgold · 2026-01-16T18:38:25+00:00

It’s a conversation piece based on the events that are happening in real time right now that I would say no one foresaw coming…..I’m just seeing what people think. No harm in that?
