    I see a few Jefferson war nickels in that pile. I recently picked up 2 original bank rolls, 1943 S & 1945 S ... Great information, and thanks for the upload.

    Interesting stuff. Bit of both.... I have a couple of collection coins and a little bullion.
    I collect fossils too.
    It's strange... I just put a coin and a fossil on freeads, opened up the tube and this video was at the top.

    Good balanced understanding.Years ago when I was in a position to do so I collected exclusively coins of numismatic value. When personal issues arose I was able to use them to survive financially. Recently I have returned to the wider precious metal coin community though the price dynamics have obviously changed. I would probably be considered more of a stack mind now and primarily focused on bullion rather than numismatic,but I love the coins and their history so I expect to include both in the future.

    Very interesting as always. I’m the same. I collect from a numismatic perspective (personally I like Crowns, Half Crowns and Florins + some Morgan’s and half dollars-silver). If I get an upgrade in conditions on a coin, then that replaces what is in the collection, but I keep the other coin in my ‘stack’ if you like. Not sure if that makes sense!

    I stack and collect. On my collecting side I like foreign silver coins, especially crown size silver foreign coins. Also key date Morgans and Peace dollars. On my stacking side I collect US and Canadian junk silver. Silver Eagles. Morgan and Peace dollars common dates. Also love tokens. As you see, I’m all over the place with my stacking and collecting. I like to mix it up to keep from getting bored.

    I been buying a lot of 50% silver of various conditions off eBay lately. Half Crowns can be purchased at near spot if buying in bulk. I have paid about £5.50 to £6 per coin. I got 51 of them so far. Got a load of sixpences and threepences too. Recently bought a job lot of sixpences and threepences off eBay for £42 plus post at under spot but they are in worn/slick condition. one threepence was a Edward 7th coin. 50% silver coins are very cheap to buy off eBay right now. Hoping to acquire more over the next year.
    I buy 50% silver now because it is VAT free and almost zero premium. There is no point buying silver Britannia's and other 1oz coins as the premium including VAT is as much as 40%. You will never break even on such a purchase or it could take a life time to break even. Same with platinum bullion. The premiums and VAT makes it not worth it.
