Anyone have an old receipt for silver or gold when the prices were cheap that they want to share?

This could be interesting.
I ran across one of my first silver bar purchases with receipt today as I sorted stuff.


Fire up the time machine, I'd like to have a few more at this price point

How did you get it for under spot?

 

Wish I saved them.

I used to buy 1/10 th ounce eagles, maple leaves, and the occasional Australian nuggets in the 90s in lots of 10 for around $300-$350. I would keep 1 for a date set and sell the rest of them for a few dollar mark up to people at work and the coin club. The profit paid for my coin. I had a nice run of dates, including some platinum pieces but sold them in the late 2000s when gold hit $1000/ounce

 

I think it would depress me as I bought
allot of gold in the early 80 s , no receipt
or coins from that time period, but have
recently replenished my supply 11 OZ
of Gold in the past 12 months plus another 3 OZ of the 1/10 variety.

 

Great buy for you, may be time to take profits! j/k Certainly pays to hodl!

 

Yeah that’s all BTC foam, still keeping initial investment intact, looking for this
to continue thru next year

 

Only problem I've seen with holding is I added the 25 ounce constitution bar and 50 ounce constitution bar to the 10 ounce constitution bar.
There is still a 100 ounce version, but dang the prices

 

That’s an oldie !

 

Im what most of you would call a youngster(my daughter will disagree) but doubt Ill ever see gold in the 1200's again in my lifetime.

 

Edit

 

This will be a phenomenal thread. Can't wait to keep checking back in on it.

 

Foam you keep saying BTC FOAM, the only foam I get is off poorly drawn beer.

 

2006 purchased a monster box of Silver Eagles. With shipping and insurance they came to $12.72 each

 

Here's one out of the archives...

 

Big fan of the "The Scotsman" reciept above.

 

That silver chart is inaccurate, doesn't reflect real-world, market prices. Silver peaked at about $50 in early-1980.

 

Don't have a receipt but the price is on the 2x2

 

I slept through the PM and numismatic price swings of the 80s, 90s, and 00s. I could post plenty of amusing receipts for computer equipment, though...
