[QUOTE="coinaline, post: 5290901, member: 115811"]Another thread got me wondering what everyone's current favorite type of silver investments/acquisitions are. And how they may have changed over time. I just got back into coin collecting after a few decade hiatus. I am a cynic by nature, so silver seemed like the best option for me to feel safer in case the SHTF as other coins might not go as far in a bad situation. I hope we never find out! To start, I myself am currently enjoying "junk silver" like pre-1964 dimes and quarters for their affordability (and now I understand why they were impossible to find in circulation as a kid) and modern US commemorative dollars because sometimes they can be had closer to melt and they spice it up with a little variety. Proof silver is something I'm partial to because, if you buy online, you can at least count on a previous collector not damaging it too much (although I've been surprised :)). It seems easier than trying to grade from a bad photo. How about you (if you are comfortable sharing)?[/QUOTE]
