What is a Silver Certificate? How were they redeemed?
Silver is sound money
We need to stop thinking about silver in terms of profit in dollars. Silver is a vehicle for preserving wealth, no matter how much or little you may have. The dollar is very near to collapse. When that happens, all the dollars in the world won’t buy a happy meal. 1,000,000x0=0. Silver, however, will always retain its value. Here’s an example. In 1964, regular gasoline could be purchased for about 10 cents per gallon. Today, that same dime from 1964 can be sold for the value of the silver it contains and yield enough dollars to buy about a gallon of gasoline. Neither the value of the silver nor the gasoline has changed, but the value of the dollar has decreased to almost nothing. Therefore it takes more dollars to buy the same amount of goods and services. That’s what happens when you print currency out of thin air with nothing to back it up for 50 years. And here we are. My advice is to buy as much silver as you can afford as often as you can and hold it no matter what the dollar price of silver is at any given moment. If the price goes up, it just means the dollar is worth less. If the price goes down, it’s an opportunity to buy. BUT NEVER SELL YOUR SILVER. 😊❤
My favorite design out of all currency from the US Mint is the Winged Liberty aka Mercury dime, I like it so much that I have it in gold, silver, copper and palladium!
@@michaelangelobergeron5980 wow! I’ve seen the gold 1/10 oz one, I’ve bid on a few on eBay but always got outbid!
You missed the most important reason to stack silver dimes, when the crap hits the fan, you can spend it to buy another Hot Wheels car.
@@zzyzxRDFwy15 yes! Haha. When people realize that the dollar is just paper clothes with numbers on it and that silver and other commodities are real money barter trade will start to commence and dimes will buy anything is the $2-5 range maybe even higher, depending on conditions.
Cool! That store is not far from me at all...
@@slb5150 I love Antiques and More, I go almost every Saturday.
Another buying opportunity. Bought some junk silver on a decent Black Friday deal. It’ll come back up again.
@@joshuakelleher-bw5dg Good to hear, I try to to by a little each drop.
Me too… when I can SAFELY afford to.
@ ya the key is to only buy what you can afford so you don’t have to tap back into it and sell. Long term hold is the way.
@ I 1Million% agree!
Cool video. Thanks for the history. Merc dimes are my favorite to stack. Very important for fractional bartering.
Be careful with too many mercs. Last year I stacked 50 slick mercs next to 50 1964 rosies. I was 12 dimes short in my merc pile. I promise if we are bartering they will weigh the silver coins. I went thru my 800 mercs. Took all the really slicks to LCS and traded straight across for good rosies. If I was 12 dimes short every 50 dimes. So I probably gained 140 dimes worth of silver on that trade,
@@Userhfdryjjgddfya it’s definitely good to check that. Barber dimes are notorious for that. Mercs not so much. I prefer merc because Rosies were made both from silver and clad. Mercs are the perfect balance imo.
💯 F.y.i. This dang y.t. wont let me hit the like button for some reason ! Just wanted to let you know. Something on the Balboa video.
💯 I love and shpuld ha e piced them up at the antique shop when I seen them ! Nice lil collection of them !
Lots of great info
Wow, thank you for the support. I thought I was the only one that has been keeping up with my sub count. I’ll continue to bring more videos, and each one should be better than last.
Terrific video and story. watching your push to 1000 subs. keep up the great work.
No dealers that I know of are currently paying “melt value” for .900 fine pre-1965 Constitutional Silver coinage because STACKERS have been selling it in huge quantities for more than a year to pay their bills - especially insurance and property taxes.
@@rogerkinard7446 yup that sucks but it’s part of the cycle. Buy, Hold, Sell, Buy Again. Silver price has risen from $22 in Feb 2024 to $35 in early Nov 2024, so people are taking profit. Also so many people are broke rn. But that is a reason to buy and hold in case you need an extra few bucks in the future. Imagine if those people didn’t have coins to sell. The sentiment is low. When the sentiment is BUY! the price will rise. If you are buying silver to resell, cost average and stack sell On the next pop. If you are buying to hold til $50, $150 an ozt or higher, buy now! Dimes are the first coins to go. There’s almost no premium rn. If you are buying to potential trade, no time is bad just don’t pay more than 1.25x over melt.
Tell us what you're long on Robin Hood for. I'm going to build a base with all Global ETFs Global Copper ETF Global uranium ETF Silver Juniors ETF Gold Juniors ETF Texas oil ETF
@@OzkAltBldgCo-bv8tt I honestly only hold a small position, just to keep it easy to track when I open my app. Robinhood is really just play for me. I enjoy holding and handling with my physical assets anytime I want. Less about daily/weekly trading.
I pick up several coins at yard sales too,my wife doesn't like going to yard sale with me,lol and antique malls are great to,last week I bought a 1909 s over s wheat penny in an old anacs soap box holder at a local antique store,great video and keep going.
Silver is the most boring thing to track by the hour ngl, lol no offense.. it's just so stable :(
@@EvolutionIsles there’s time when it swing 5% up in a day or 3% down the next day, but that’s one of the best things about silver. I buy physical silver and I plan to hold it for years, if not decades. If I ever need to sell some, I have a shop they’ll buy it 10mins form my house. I can have unreported, tax free cash money in 10-15mins. Very liquid. But I am one of those people who study the fundamentals and expect the price of silver to potentially rival gold one day.
@@SilverGarage 💯 on that note ! I'm new to metals ! I very curious on what the fundamentals are of silver . Now I definitely want to buy the paper market as well. You have showed me that a lot of people do this and make and take from it . I see how this works now as a newbie to metals I have a regular amount taken out from. Work . But I want my own so I can use it to gain more physical One day ! My desk will have piles on it of hopefully A.S..E. atleast a monster box of them. You got something figured out ! Thx. For showing the rocking chair ! Definitely a keeper from Arkansas ! Thx. For showing me a ton of silver.
@ thank you I can tell you paid attention to the video. I just released a new video that talked about the fundamentals a little bit and why I think silver is a better choice over gold. I will keep trying to make videos to explain the fundamentals as clear as possible for everyone to understand, but the video I released today should help a lot!
Are you saying Robahood or Robinhood?
Use your brain, you’ll invest better. 😜
@@SilverGarage And the answer is what?
Awesome
First
Super Shop you found. TYVM for sharing. Liked and new sub. Great math about great silver!
Oh yeah i stack most constitutional silver people are always looking for junk silver 💪🏽 great info
I've never put coins in a tube like that ever.Even old worn down staight up junk silver.I keep my high grade coins in choice Unc. Mint State condition
I usually bring in what ever amount of cash I want to spend, buy rounds n top it off 90%. It's an easy way of building them up n knowing exactly what you are spending "per round"
@@Sjp1985 Do a Google search and find all of the shops in your area that sell silver rounds, Buy at least one at each shop to build a relationship. Tell them what you pay at other shops. Then you’ll find out The one that gives you the lowest price Will most likely also treat you the best. An honest dealer will know for a fact he is giving you the lowest price and treating you the best.
90% silver quarters are the last item I buy. This is because you can make any silver amount, except 1/4 and 3/4s of an ounce without quarters. Thus I stack dimes first, then halves, and finally, quarters.
I agree with you. I am about to my a video about dimes. I have around 240 dimes. 60 quarters and 40 half dollars and only a few Dollars (my least favorite). So definitely love dimes the most, but I decided to start with quarters because I just had recently finished my quarter tube. A goal that took awhile because I slacked on buying quarters for years. Thanks!
Your math is erroneous. It takes $1.40 to equal an ounce of silver. If you pay $5.50, that's $30.80 per ounce.
@@CharlieJacob-u9x Thanks for commenting but which part did I say that, I always count 90% silver by ASW.
If it was notes written on a sticky note, those change all the time and might be old. Sometimes I get lazy. As you saw, there are more than 5 Quarters in that book, yet I didn’t update the sticky note. Also, sometimes I scribble over notes so it might look confusing. I appreciate your attention to detail, it’s a really important skill.
Oh wow! There's some really neat stuff in that store!
Yea, I plan to do another walk thru, with their permission. Check them out. The owner is a 94 yo man named Charles and his wife. So much stuff. They’ve been in business since 1988. He’s a collector at heart.
@SilverGarage too bad, I'm in NY
@@marymastromauro8164 I’m pretty sure there are some amazing shops in NY. 😊
Lol, I grabbed a stone mountain quarter from that shop in college. Still in my box. Haven't been out there since school.
@@hippiehillape Half Dollar? I have one too. It was a birthday gift. They are really nice. If you can get them under $50 buy them. I was in Northlake Stamps and Coins in Atlanta looking thru coins and an older man came in, looked at a PCGS graded one, the shop owner told him $189 and the guy paid!
Nice im doing 1 oz coins rn ima buy my first 10oz pack friday
That’s great. Keep it up. I bought my first 1 oz Buffalo 2 years ago and I feel I love instantly, I keep buying because I felt 1 oz of silver is worth more than $25-30 cash in the long run. It will add up faster than you think. Good luck.
@SilverGarage thanks man. I also do videos if you wanna collab on ideas or whatever
@@USdebtbytrentok cool. I’ll subscribe and consider it.
@SilverGarage thanks man
That is pretty good price with the recent spike in spot price. Only problem I have with them is that mostly they have no numismatic value unless they are high grade.
Yea, I treat US coins as 90% Bullion, you can get 1.4x spot usually if you list online, but i use them to stack volume, so that when I am ready to sell I have A LOT!!! I won’t sell Bullion or US Coins until $50 an ounce. I am holding. Thanks!
Also, if you buy only what you can hold for awhile, then when that time comes you’ll be happy. If you buy with money you might need soon, you end up selling for less. Just stack and wait until you are happy to sell at a good price or you can barter with them, depends who you run into and what they are willing to trade for.

He also tried to buy Luxembourg. The Grand Duke(Lux is actually the only Grand Duchy left) said yes but the Prussians and British forced him to back off. Yep his Uncle may have conquered half of europe but he was gonna purchase Luxembourg.
I never knew that. Good looking out. 🙏🙏🤙🏻
Steel and iron is magnetic too. Take a magnet to a steel penny or a Euro.
Nice 🥈
Didn’t know nickel is magnetic ! A few other metals are too.
Average income in 1968 was just under $8000.00. Here is the interesting part. 8,000 x 20 = 160,000. The reason we had silver and gold as money, was so the government could not inflate and print currency until it became worthless. If we were still on a gold and silver standard, the metals would be worth many, many multiples, of what its worth is today. Thats because there would be less to go around. We have out of control printing now. So with more dollars there are more to go around every day. In all of history fiat currency has gone to zero.
Yes. I have silver coins from many different countries that I plan to post videos on and discuss the different currency inflations and collapses. The Peso is a great comparison to the USD. It’s actually rising in valve as the USD is getting weaker. Also the effects of WWI, WWII and even Vietnam are easy to explain in world coins.
@@SilverGarage nice.. be sure to add in the income tax that started in WWII. promised to be discontinued after the war. Keep stacking..
Interesting… Thanks for the info. I’ll definitely make a video on income tax.
Why did it spike and then crash and spike again?
The price of Silver spiked between 1968 and 1980 partially due to a new investment demand in silver and The Hunt Brothers. The Hunt Brothers bought up all the silver they could buy and caused it to skyrocket from $1.29 per troy oz to $50. In 1980 the Government caught on to their tactics and caused a crash. In 2011 silver spike again due to world conflicts and the mistrust in the USD.
The hunt brothers. They bought so much silver it pushed the price up. Then the government and others manipulated the stock market, changed the rules and cost the hunt brothers millions.. They also owned hunt brothers pizza you see at the gas stations. Very interesting story..
@@SilverGarage Thank you! I learned something new today.
