<p>[QUOTE="adric22, post: 1542010, member: 38146"]The 1-oz copper rounds and bars you can find are pretty much a rip-off. I did buy a tube of 20 round once just for the heck of it. They do look nice, but they cost way too much over spot. However, if you go for the larger bars of copper - you know, the ones measured in pounds or kilos rather than in ounces, you can get it much closer to spot value. Look for 5 or 10 pound bars, or even 10-kilo bars. If you are going to bother investing in copper at all, I suspect these are the way to go. </p><p><br /></p><p>I have bought bars made of titanium, nickel, copper, brass, niobium, lead, zinc, iron, stainless steel, and even aluminum. But I bought most of those as novelties. I doubt I'll ever get my money back on those. Well, maybe on the Niobium, but not the rest. Silver seems to be the best way currently to invest in metal if you don't have a lot of money.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
