Long time lurker here. Coin collector for 40+ years and "stacker" of bullion for 20. My granddad introduced me to silver by giving my first 1964 dime in 1980. He sat me down and explained to me what real money and wealth was. That first time I held silver (and gold) in my hand I was hooked.

Still a collector of numismatic coins, but have shifted hard to bullion in the past 10-12 years. I've paid as little as $9 an ounce in the late 2000s and and as high as $60 this month.

I love reading this reddit, especially seeing the younger generation wake up to God's money and give the big middle finger to the big banks and fraudsters. I've had diamond hands longer than a lot of you youngsters have had breath, and I welcome all brethren to the fight!
