    I use to buy all silver when I started collecting about 15 years ago. My main purchases were the Silver Proof Coins, ASE's W/S/ & the UNC each year. Some of the time, I get tired of the clad coins and became more selective buying silver coins and silver sets. I think I bought 1 of everything that were Apollo 11 related, even the brochure I got in the mail. That got me started on collecting all brochures the Mint sent me.
    I am curious about how collections are stored. I collect everything about the coins that sent out. Currently, I keep everything that I buy in a year, in a box for each year. My gold is kept separately for security, but, like I asked, what is the best way to store coins?

    The best way for you to store coins is in my safe. ;)

    They screwed up on a fairly large order and then tried charging me twice for the same order. When I brought it to their attention they said I was wrong and tried charging me 3 times lol. Needless to say at that point I dropped several F bombs on the phone call with them and was banned for cursing lol.

    Putting silver on the back burner right
    now at any price, just way to bulky
    for the price, seeking out GOLD for
    the immediate future :)

    I get that it's bulky, has more upside potential... potentially :D

    It does ? even if it went to its ultimate
    highest point ever it wouldn’t come close
    to eclipsing GOLDS potential, dollar per
    dollar or cents to cents with SILVER…LOL

    What's the point of comparing silver's history ("highest point ever") to gold's potential?

    Even if you stick with comparing history, the gold-to-silver ratio spent a long time around 16, and it's currently above its 1-year and 10-year averages. That would seem to indicate that silver has more upside potential than gold. Of course, past history doesn't predict future results.

    Your talking cents to dollars, not a fair comparison, not sure how rich your going
    to get in $23 is OZ..LOL

    If you buy $1000 worth of gold and $1000 worth of silver, and both metals go up 10%, which one has made you more money?

    Your looking at investment here which will gain value over time, in my opinion you
    are limited with Silver based on the historical
    data as that is all you have to go by, GOLD
    on the other hand not so much as it is more
    tied to the dollar.

    Silver was just as tied to the dollar as gold was in the past….and historical date would point to silver being the better “investment”.

    You... you do realize that if you spend $1800+ on silver bullion you'll get more than one ounce, right?

    I fail to see your point..?….But if you are going to compare two things with different values you need to work in terms of percentages. If someone told me they would give me $1800 worth of PMs I would take gold only because it’s much easier to store/hide, but I honestly feel silver is the better investment.
