[QUOTE="Clawcoins, post: 2609148, member: 77814"]You realize Copper is fairly cheap. A 10lb bar is about $64. versus 4oz rounds of Silver. That's 10 lbs ... think of the shipping cost related to that when you go to sell it .. it's not going to be a $2.30 shipping cost as with coins. Since there's not much movement (by comparison to Silver and Gold) you will have to buy a ton of it, literally & physically to make a good profit. I hope you drive a pickup truck, dualie preferred. [IMG]http://www.kitconet.com/charts/metals/base/spot-copper-5y-Large.gif[/IMG] You could develop a loose correlation between copper and silver on long term trends but I would treat both of them differently and follow the news about both of them separately. Then you'd be more accurate. [IMG]http://www.kitco.com/lfgif/ag1825lf_ma.gif[/IMG] and you will have limited buyers. I don't think many people collect copper except indirectly with their copper cookware and brass in watches, etc. If you take a copper & silver round to your neighbor which would they be more likely to buy ?[/QUOTE]
