Question about silver coins...

[Tpoints]

I found some silver coins at my local dealer, they are all 1 troy oz, .999 fine silver but they are all Christmas coins with Santa Claus on them. Does having a design like that (Santa or otherwise) make them harder to sell when you want to sell them?

yes, coins and bars with no mint name on it are generally harder to sell.

I would be more inclined to pick up 14 uncirculated early 60's dimes for $2.50 ea , but that is just me ....

I have never used APMEX for anything , but last ad I saw had Silver Eagles @ 36.84 , a generic.999 silveroz round @ $35.34 and a 10 oz silver bar @ 346.40. One of the reasons I buy local , I can beat any net price I have ever seen , I pay no tax, no shipping , no minimums etc.

I've used Apmex several times, and have never had a problem with them. Buying local would be the best bet, especially if you can get good deals. But for those who don't have any good local sources, Apmex would make a good second place option.

Kind of what I was thinking .

I know interacting with society is one of the great collective fears of the liberty movement but you guys really need to start hitting estate auctions and such. Why pay over spot price for silver when you can wait for the right auction and but up a lot of it for next to nothing? Not to mention gold, sterling silver, coin silver and gem stones.

I agree , I do auctions etc, sometimes you can get a decent deal , sometimes not , does not cost anything to walk away, go to the house , make a bacon sandwich ...

yes, not a bad idea, although not as pure, they're harder to counterfeit, easier to verify, and easier to sell.

I guess I like guying local just cause I like no record of my buying anything.

Nothing wrong with that, but I must admit I do not get this seemingly excessive need for anonymity. Your call, of course, but I have no problem buying anything of the sort online. I bought 10K rounds of 5.56, for example, just as Bammy was getting into office. I don't give a mouse's shit if they know about it because if things go toward pending confiscation, I can assure you that my assets are going to mysteriously disappear from the house. "They" are never going to see anything of my possessions. Weapons, metals, ammo, liquor, machine tools... all ghosts if the time comes. They can come and demand until they are blue in their faces. I will simply stand back and have a good chuckle. I am no longer afraid of "them". Perhaps I should be? I don't know. I just know that I am not and will not make any extraordinary effort to hide my opinions and so forth. If they do not like what I think or do, let them take me to Gitmo if they dare. I could use the change of scenery.
