What is softer: ASEs or AGEs?

Indeed. I don't have any intention to sell it in the future. Afterall, you see people selling "uncirculated silver eagles".. Well I have a silver eagle that has been burnt, scratched, thrown, hammered (not yet), abused, and spent a few years in my pocket. Much more story than something that has been in a tube all its life!

If I wanted to have some bullion to store, I'd get a bar

Like I said... they're not that hard.

 

So you're planning to sell all you have to refiner once prices drop? Why not sell it now?

 

You wanna impress me? Bend a nickel.

 

arent you loseing silver

 

Oh yeah, can you bend one of these?

 

Redwin is that you?

 

In 30-40 years from now, when i no longer wish to own pm, then i will. My talking about the excessive pm's is not referring to dropping prices but dropping interest.

 

Mkay... why will you no longer whish too own PM's than?

 

It will be easier to bend silver than gold but I dubt you can with your hands.
If you happen to be sucessful, post pics but I doubt we will ever see pics.

 

Only an uncommonly strong man could do it. or a woman on a lot of steroids maybe.

But gold, I can rip through that with my teeth so easily it's like chocolate. It even tastes like chocolate actually...

 

Methinks thats the wrong type of gold, mate

 

Well, update.

I snapped my silver eagle in half! After putting it in a charcoal grille a few times. It got melty a small bit, and then it was mailable.

Next time I go to my LCS I'm going to buy a peace or morgan cull and see what I can do

 

just curious...why is it you are so bent on bending these possibly numismatic items? don't they have gyms wherever you live where you can easily take out this frustration?

 

I would pay big bucks to see that coin bent, even more if it got dropped in the smelter's pot..........

 

I don't see most, (99+%) of ASE's ever being numismatic. They bring premiums not due to numismatics but they are a recognized form of pure silver. The poster simply lost that premium by destroying it. I would never be one to advocate doing such things on modern commemoratives, real coins, etc, but to me a run of the mill ASE is only a silver round the US mint happened to strike.

 

Right. It is just silver, and it is just worth its weight in silver now. That's the only reason I did it. I still have the weight of what its worth.

 

so you have no slabbed/graded eagles...? and if you do, you would sell them for spot plus $1 like a standard silver bullion round...right?

wrong
