Yankee, very good resource ? Two words.........Estate Sales. Many times I have scoped out a sale early, saw some nice PM's, and then I go back on the last day of the sale. The people running the sale don't want to have anything left over and they will negotiate on the final day. I got over 8 pounds of sweet junk silver for $300 a few months back. Old US mint halves, quarters, and Mercury Dimes. That is not the first, or the last time, that we have scored BIG. My wife came home from an estate sale last year with an 8 oz bag of 14 carat Gold casting grains, used by jewelers for making bracelets, rings, bezels, etc. She paid $20 for it mixed in with a bag of other stuff, almost 5 oz of pure Gold, Jackpot !
Very excited for you to have made a safe and prosperous in person trade of dollars for Silver & Gold. Excellent video. Keep building the musket! Yes ! Get more Maples!
Very nice score! My favorite way is to find jewelry at garage and estate sales. I found a pair of 14K earings last weekend in a bag of jewelry. Gold melt is @ $73.00, there were also a pair of sterling earings and a single sterling earing. The silver paid for the $4.00 I spent and the gold was free. It is my hobby, I guess I have found about 5 onuces of gold over the last few years and spent probably around $200.00 to get it.
@@YankeeStacking I only get to go on Saturdays, unless I take a vacation day. It amazes my how many times I find stuff at estate sales either after it has been open for a few hours or on the second day. The company holding the sale missed something and so did dozens of shoppers before me. Of course this years finds have been muted by lack of sales due to the pandmic. A big tip is to go neighborhood garage sales, (which there has not been any this year) you can hit a lot of them in a short period of time and a lot of people really have no idea and just put grandma's box of jewelry out with a sign that says $1.00 each, I look see some gold or silver and offer them $20.00 for the box. Last year I scored over $500.00 on one box for $20.00.
I really enjoyed this video. It was fun watching 2 guys get together in a parking lot and doing a deal. I think both of you seem to be making smart decisions.
Really smart move IF he does not leverage up with a mortgage. Buy outright and own instead of renting from the bank. Banks are heartless in hard times. Uh, really all the time. It is their business model.
I definitely know, first hand that the Buffaloes can have different finishes. I have a 2006 that is very flat finish in color, but definitely gold. I have several other Buffaloes and most have some level of consistency, but the 2006 I have definitely very blan. Purchased the 2006 and several others from same, reputable dealer.
I knew that is what your going to say, It is 100 % the best way of buying metals is through the community, Man i LOVE that maple leaf due to it being unusual! thanks Yankee!
You did it Yankee you convinced me! I watched this video this morning then went to my LCS and purchased my first gold coin😃 its a 1/4 oz george Washington proof. I doubt it was as good of a deal as you got but I'm happy.
I find quite a lot of sterling items (spoons, teapots etc) at antique malls for well under spot price. Not all antiques dealers are tracking on the rising price of silver and you can get some great deals. I've also found 14k gold jewelry under spot price too.
@@myes344 I picked up an antique Dutch silver teapot for $35 on Saturday at an antiques mall and sold it to an LCS for $270 yesterday. It was very easy.
@@myes344 Depends upon what melt price is. As long as you get under melt, you are ahead. True sterling in 92.5% silver so that times melt is what you get, anything under that to buy is profit. Do enough of that and use the profit to buy bullion coins for free!!! Not free but gain for your time only. Have a friend who did garage and estate sales before Covid and made good MONEY for the trouble. I say money because he converted the currency gain as soon as he could to metals. Of couse he has been doing this for twelve years and has a good relationship with his buyer/refiner. Tagged a few real diamonds along the years as well that he moved and bought metal. His stack is one hundred percent labor, no cash spent. He also watches for real jade and has an auction house that sells that stuff for him. Not a bad side job for his retirement income. Covid has slowed him down as he is at an age that worries him and he is in Florida so not worth the risk at this time.
I love this. I am also in Vermont, and trying to do the same thing as Aaron (hopefully that is how he spells his name). Land here is crazy expensive, and people moving here because of Covid has nearly doubled the prices of land. Hoping I can slowly collect and then cash in.
Maples are my preference but I encourage others to stack what they prefer. Nice video Yankee. If you want to part with any milk-spotted maples, I'm in MA.
@@YankeeStacking I wouldve been extremely tempted (well I think would've had to grab it :D) ..but I cant see a single reference to it online including the maple leafs' dedicated Wikipedia page!
I had the same problem. So I started taking my investment silver funds, an 25% to constitutional, 25% to premium collectors coins an rounds, 25% generic rounds an bars, an 25% to silver eagles or maple leaves. They seem to always be big hits in crisis. An you can keep the specific special ones you enjoy personally
I’ve always loved having silver, but just started stacking seriously as a hedge. I quickly learned to check antique shops that don’t necessarily stay on top of silver prices and aren’t concerned with premiums.Im buying silver eagles for just a tad over spot price.😀
@@YankeeStacking I think the antique shop I've been going to is catching on. Yesterday silver eagles were 28.50 today I went and they wanted 28.75 loving it
Yes!!! Do the CM monster box! I finished an ASE monster box this past winter and started another one in January along with a CM monster box. Still need 12 tubes to complete the ASE box and 10 tubes to finish the CM box. Have not bought any Bullion coins in several months. It will take a while to finish them. Not many options in my area other than online buying. I would be open to buy from the community but not sure how to proceed. I look forward to your videos. The content is very informative and explained so even I can understand it!
My favorite way is to find really good deals for silver. Then sell it a bit more expensive and keep a few coins that represent the value between buy and sell value. After some time, you trade that silver for gold and you kind of got free gold. You traded your metal knowledge to real gold 😀 Yankee, im a huge fan of your channel, since a long time. You inspired me to start my own stacking channel and you are by far the most knowledgeable channel around economy on youtube. Big thumbs up! Planning to start to melt by own coins next year, hopefully i can send you one. I hope you and your family is safe and sound!
@@YankeeStacking Thank you, thats a great. Its a great pleasure to have you as a sub. Been watching your videos for hours or days, and i very much looking up to you in the stacking community. Keep up the good work and keep in touch!
Great score, I have bought once from APMEX, not anymore. Now I buy exclusively from my LCS, I have made purchases from JMBullion & Ebay whenever my LCS can't get what I'm looking for, but I normally check with them first before buying online. Lately USPS has been really bad with delivery, I'm still waiting on a package I ordered 2 weeks ago.........still in transit. If you order any Gold online, opt for UPS or FedEx delivery.
That would be lit! I'm actually considering 1/10th ozt gold eagles. Though that is NOT my usual fractional due to the extreme premiums... But tomorrow at 12:30 pm ET I think I'll be buying SEVEN of them!!
Nice haul Yankee! Glad you helped Aaron out. I have a 1998 ten ounce silver Maple Leaf from the RCM. I wonder what the value is right now as it is more of a collectible than bullion I believe.
Yankee Stacking Yes, I stand corrected. You helped each other out. The Maple I have is a 10 ounce commemorative. I will email you a picture tonight after work.
Nice congrats. Yep buying from the community you can get good deals. I just got a tube of 2018 ASE for 400 bucks. Seller needed cash for car payment. Love rthat seller is buying land
Hey yankee great video! I was wondering your opinion on stacking pre33 double eagles. I understand less gold at a higher premium. But would it be worth stacking?
Way to pounce Yankee, so close to completing that maple musket you're already contemplating your next challenge. I'm still lumbering (on pause at the moment) on the ASE monster box challenge 🤣
I'm in Nashua and just starting buying silver. I've been buying from Manchester Coin and Stamp, but if you come across any deals you can't take advantage of, or you are looking to sell any, PLEASE get a hold of me!
@@YankeeStacking that doesn't make sense, 999 gold will always be exactly the same as other 999 gold no matter where it's mined or refined. The most that a .001 could do is give copper spots! The different look must be from the year/mint/finish
Watched ur gold vid yesterday..still new but struggling with rationalizing premiums.. just save for full Oz or bite the bullet on fractional...It kinda feels wastefull 😣
I did a little google search and came up with oxidization could cause the discoloration of gold. It's the other alloy they use to harden the gold that can oxidize and cause the gold to appear toned.
@@YankeeStacking it was a quick picture but that was the impression I got at a glance. I have one proof and one regular Buffalo and there is a difference. So I'm finished watching now, nice pick ups. Monster box for sure.
Great video and pickups. The only reason I wouldn't do a monster box on the CML's is because of milk spotting. I know its still an ounce of silver but I don't want to put my money into something like that when there is so many other options. Thanks YS~
Order on line and click, and boom your metal shows up at your doorstep.......2-3 or more weeks later. Every metal and coin order from the big names like JMB, Sunshine, Golden Eagle etc has taken at least a month to process, ship and actually arrive.
Good point. I guess it WAS "click and boom" back when I was doing more online purchases (USPS is having serious issues), but I did receive a box from MCM really quickly the other day.
@@YankeeStacking Yes, it's odd I can get a package from Ill to CA in 4 days but a package from inside CA takes 7. I know the big metal sellers are swamped with orders, but 3-5 extra days to process?? Oh well it is what it is and the choices are two, live with it or quit buying, neither is attractive but #2 is out of the question. LOL
I get them anyway I can. On the rare occasions an unbelievable deal will happen like the 2 rolls of 1967 , 80% silver quarters a friend gave me for face. Now worth $10 ea. $20 for $800 sure works for me. Another friend traded for a full set of Route 66. He knew 66 is on my bucket list as #1, Crazy eh. Ebay scares me. 2017 Maples are the hot ones now. I have seen them for $90 to a "C " note CDN. That is my kind of tailgate bud, WOOHOO.!
Helpful video - thanks - relative to the Buffaloes I have 2 with the exact same issue. Both have been xrayed so I know they're real but 2 totally different tones. Thanks to the comments that provided some closure! Lol
Just a box of double eagles from the 1800s would be a great find and pay for the land deal all at the same time!!! You never know what got buried and lost to sudden death. Can happen anywhere. Saw one that was buried around civil war and at the base of a tree. The roots had pushed through the metal box it was in. They had to hack the metal away to avoid damaging the tree roots. Only thing they could figure was someone died without passing on the location to heirs. Land had been sold several times in the interim years. Wouldn't that be sweet.
@@YankeeStacking LOL ok that makes more sense. I would have done it the same way. Deals like that, i just buy till im out of cash. Haha very cool. Nice score buddy
Buffalos are different because the copper is the base metal (eagles) used in producing gold from acid solution vs silver in the buffalo. Also krugerrands are 1oz pure gold but they have copper to strengthen the metal because they were intended for circulation. That’s why it’s a larger coin. Can’t have a pure gold coin unless you want Easy scratches. There’s always a slight additive of copper or silver to make it strong. Still 1oz of gold but weight is very very very slightly higher for that reason. Also why the gold darkens or lightens because of the copper/ silver. Tarnishes just enough to not effect design but have a darker richer color vs bland color new ones have. You will never see it. Yellow gold bright rich vibrant = silver darker orange ish and pale on standard finish = copper. Fun facts might want to research exactly which coins have which but I know the krugerrand is definitely copper based because it was an illegal import in the 70s to the us from South Africa which made them high demand. It was to do with racism and Africans not being allowed to own gold so they made it for circulation so that it could be owned by the people of South Africa. They were illegal in the same way a gtr is. Had to do with taxes on trade, made them even more popular in the us. They were smuggled and finally in the 80s or 90s or something there were like 4million+ in the us and the president made it legal to own
I know you like a little platinum, the 2008 Britannia 1/10oz ultra cameo, seems to be a very nice buy and it's going up in price, maybe you should take a look, stay safe my friend
Interesting video, watching from the Old World. Living in a small place, I tend to buy my silver from an online dealer, very trustworthy that I've used over many years. I order and get the bill on e-mail. Been stacking on and off for about 25 years. Unfortunately sold most of my gold in 2012, but got a nice return at that time. So been buying mostly silver since and never sold any. Wish I bought more earlier (doesn't many say that?) Gold is awfully expensive, even as the US dollar is declining, so I can't afford that now. Besides, silver has much more upside, so gold might be possible later on.
I like to buy silver using the cash back I get on my credit card because it feels like Im getting it for free 😎. I have not paid the CC company any interest in almost a decade either.
Wow Yankee nice trade! Agree the nicest way is trading with other stackers! Yankee I have two questions for you ...why you capsule the gold maples (know they are soft 9999 24k but they dont tone) and not the silver maples which will tone..even with the shield right? And second..what capsules you buy lighthouse ultra intercept or airtite from guyonfire?
Stk, toning isn't the issue, nor is milkspotting. BOTH will occur regardless of putting silver in capsules. I also don't encapsulate my 22k AGEs (except one I used to sign off with) due to them being a bit more durable and with the branding of the "Yankee Cannon". However, those 24k gold maples will dent easily, so I put them in capsules for storage. And I use onfireguy and Amazon for my capsule purchases. Hope that helps!
@@YankeeStacking also there is an eurpean company called thelighthouse that have capsules with ultra intercept teghnology that should avoid at least for 15 years toning probably you already new them
I don't! You would need to get them encapsulated quickly because the #1 cause of toning/tarnish is the sulfur in our post-industrial age air. I'll check them out! Thanks.

Cool video, it’s great to buy gold and silver from someone in our great community! Congrats on those pickups.
Thanks, man!!

Love it when Both parties WIN...Nice job to Both of you
It was a wonder exchange. 👌🏼
Another cool video! I’m surprised none of the 2014 had milk spots. That’s great! Beautiful gold.
Frankly, I’m shocked too! I’ve been only buying 2018s and newer. But this was too good to pass up. TFW! 👌🏼
Love this! Smart man. Exchanging bullion for land is always an excellent option! Hopefully he can recoup as well soon enough!
I agree!! 👌🏼
Really smart move IF he does not leverage up with a mortgage. Buy outright and own instead of renting from the bank. Banks are heartless in hard times. Uh, really all the time. It is their business model.

One of the buffaloes might be counterfeit since the feild looks like it was sand casted and rough and not flat like a press..
Tho he swears they tested out as legit. IDK.

I AM! 😂😂 But I only need three more. Thanks for watching, Bryan. Appreciate it.
Oh yes on the monster box !!
Thanks! But it won’t be as easy as it was last year with the ASE monster box!! 😆
@@YankeeStacking come on stimulus check!! LOL
I'm in Nashua and just starting buying silver. I've been buying from Manchester Coin and Stamp, but if you come across any deals you can't take advantage of, or you are looking to sell any, PLEASE get a hold of me!
Yup! I post stuff from Tim’s all the time. 👌🏼
That Maple Pounder!!!! 😳🤯
IKR?! Amazing. 👌🏼
@@YankeeStacking go get that for me. Ill buy it off you. Promise
My 2008 looks very similar also. Everything checks out on it too. My tube of 2014 maples look fantastic also. Weird huh.
Yeah, very weird. But others are saying it depends on where the gold was mined?? IDK.
@@YankeeStacking if it's a Buffalo should be in the USA.
@@YankeeStacking that doesn't make sense, 999 gold will always be exactly the same as other 999 gold no matter where it's mined or refined. The most that a .001 could do is give copper spots!
The different look must be from the year/mint/finish
Watched ur gold vid yesterday..still new but struggling with rationalizing premiums.. just save for full Oz or bite the bullet on fractional...It kinda feels wastefull 😣
I did a little google search and came up with oxidization could cause the discoloration of gold. It's the other alloy they use to harden the gold that can oxidize and cause the gold to appear toned.
Thanks!! 👌🏼
Hey Yankee.. if you use JM Bullion was your info compromised due to the hack that occured?
I just picked up 2 rolls of beautiful silver statehood quarters for .73 cents/oz over spot. Good buy?
Guy Still Nice buy! 👌🏼👌🏼
Go for it! Monster box of maples
Thanks! I'll try!
@@YankeeStacking but it's up to you what you want to stack! Are you in Canada or us? The base of my stack is silver eagles
That monster maple looks tempting!!!!
SOOOOOOOOOOOO tempting!!! Really. I almost snagged it. ;)
Yankee
One of the Buffaloes is a proof.
Still watching.
Are you sure? I’ve been hearing that the way it was minted changed over the years and that’s why the tone is different.
@@YankeeStacking it was a quick picture but that was the impression I got at a glance.
I have one proof and one regular Buffalo and there is a difference.
So I'm finished watching now, nice pick ups.
Monster box for sure.
Are Britannia 1oz silver coins popular in the states I’m currently stationed in Germany I started stacking about a year ago thanks in advance
Good score. Too kool.🤠
Thanks, Bob!
Canadian Maple Leafs are my favorite, besides Libertads of course which usually cost more. Can't go wrong with four 9s.
Four 9s is so fine!
I think the different color in the buffalo might be because they were dipped Cool video thank you
OH! Good point. That would have lightened up one of them, no?
Hell yeah! If I had the means, I'd try to have a monster box of ASE's, Maples, Brittany's, and krugerrands, etc.. (big dreams)
That would be super sweeeeet!!!! 👌🏼
Good morning 🌞 Yankee 🇺🇸☕ that is one beautiful pound of Silver would love to see a video on it🇺🇲🙏🏿👊🏿👌👌🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇲💪🏽🇺🇲
I think this video is as close as I'll be able to come for that beauty!!
Well YANKEE u would be proud got a bit of gold coming not much but it's a start
I am proud of you!! WTG, my friend!
Great video and pickups. The only reason I wouldn't do a monster box on the CML's is because of milk spotting. I know its still an ounce of silver but I don't want to put my money into something like that when there is so many other options. Thanks YS~
Completely agree! But none of my 2018s have spotted. I'm thinking they may have licked the issue. IDK.
Order on line and click, and boom your metal shows up at your doorstep.......2-3 or more weeks later. Every metal and coin order from the big names like JMB, Sunshine, Golden Eagle etc has taken at least a month to process, ship and actually arrive.
Good point. I guess it WAS "click and boom" back when I was doing more online purchases (USPS is having serious issues), but I did receive a box from MCM really quickly the other day.
@@YankeeStacking Yes, it's odd I can get a package from Ill to CA in 4 days but a package from inside CA takes 7. I know the big metal sellers are swamped with orders, but 3-5 extra days to process?? Oh well it is what it is and the choices are two, live with it or quit buying, neither is attractive but #2 is out of the question. LOL
I have two american eagles with different looking hues, but baffalos are odd to have different hues.
22K vs 24K. I agree!
Wow great buy! 😀
Thanks! 😊
I get them anyway I can. On the rare occasions an unbelievable deal will happen like the 2 rolls of 1967 , 80% silver quarters a friend gave me for face. Now worth $10 ea. $20 for $800 sure works for me. Another friend traded for a full set of Route 66. He knew 66 is on my bucket list as #1, Crazy eh. Ebay scares me. 2017 Maples are the hot ones now. I have seen them for $90 to a "C " note CDN. That is my kind of tailgate bud, WOOHOO.!
Would love to tailgate with you, Dean!!! 😂👌🏼
@@YankeeStacking That would be wonderful. If you are ever north of 49 my door is never locked eh.
I just use my equity to buy more silver, I get it for only the cost of the premium average! Last purchase I averaged around 4.75 an oz...
SWEET!! Thanks for your comment. Appreciate you watching the video. 👌🏼
Helpful video - thanks - relative to the Buffaloes I have 2 with the exact same issue. Both have been xrayed so I know they're real but 2 totally different tones. Thanks to the comments that provided some closure! Lol
That's good to know! I'm getting a lot of info about those in the comments. 👌🏼
Would love to have a few of those fractional Buffalo’s it’s my favorite gold coin
So would I. Lovely 24k gold!! 😂👌🏼
Go for the monster maple box!!!
Thanks, Shawn!
Reppin' r/pmsforsale all day.
NOICE!
Wish him well... It would be great if he is working the land and finds a massive gold bar...
That would be epic!! 😂👌🏼
Just a box of double eagles from the 1800s would be a great find and pay for the land deal all at the same time!!! You never know what got buried and lost to sudden death. Can happen anywhere. Saw one that was buried around civil war and at the base of a tree. The roots had pushed through the metal box it was in. They had to hack the metal away to avoid damaging the tree roots. Only thing they could figure was someone died without passing on the location to heirs. Land had been sold several times in the interim years. Wouldn't that be sweet.
Great buy, but wow im alittle suprized you didnt buy the whole lot. Very cool for sure
I ran out of cash. LOL!!
@@YankeeStacking LOL ok that makes more sense. I would have done it the same way. Deals like that, i just buy till im out of cash. Haha very cool. Nice score buddy
I have heard the buffaloes can be different shading depending on what part of the world the gold was mined from.
Now THAT is very very interesting!! I'll share that with him, YBB. Thanks.
Buffalos are different because the copper is the base metal (eagles) used in producing gold from acid solution vs silver in the buffalo. Also krugerrands are 1oz pure gold but they have copper to strengthen the metal because they were intended for circulation. That’s why it’s a larger coin. Can’t have a pure gold coin unless you want Easy scratches. There’s always a slight additive of copper or silver to make it strong. Still 1oz of gold but weight is very very very slightly higher for that reason. Also why the gold darkens or lightens because of the copper/ silver. Tarnishes just enough to not effect design but have a darker richer color vs bland color new ones have. You will never see it. Yellow gold bright rich vibrant = silver darker orange ish and pale on standard finish = copper. Fun facts might want to research exactly which coins have which but I know the krugerrand is definitely copper based because it was an illegal import in the 70s to the us from South Africa which made them high demand. It was to do with racism and Africans not being allowed to own gold so they made it for circulation so that it could be owned by the people of South Africa. They were illegal in the same way a gtr is. Had to do with taxes on trade, made them even more popular in the us. They were smuggled and finally in the 80s or 90s or something there were like 4million+ in the us and the president made it legal to own
Thanks for the info, Ripper! So even with 24k gold buffalo, what we're seeing here is "tarnish"??
I really like this Video
And I really appreciate that, Dustin!
I know you like a little platinum, the 2008 Britannia 1/10oz ultra cameo, seems to be a very nice buy and it's going up in price, maybe you should take a look, stay safe my friend
Thanks bro! I will. 👌🏼
Picking up 100oz locally was so Easy!
SHWEET! 😂👌🏼
Love maples always looking to buy at a good price.
Me too! 👌🏼
Interesting video, watching from the Old World. Living in a small place, I tend to buy my silver from an online dealer, very trustworthy that I've used over many years. I order and get the bill on e-mail. Been stacking on and off for about 25 years. Unfortunately sold most of my gold in 2012, but got a nice return at that time. So been buying mostly silver since and never sold any. Wish I bought more earlier (doesn't many say that?) Gold is awfully expensive, even as the US dollar is declining, so I can't afford that now. Besides, silver has much more upside, so gold might be possible later on.
Gold CERTAINLY is a more speculative play with great upside potential! TFW. 👌🏼
Very entertaining. I love the Art of the Deal!!😎🇺🇸
Different alloys in the Gold will bring out different colors.
Thanks!
I like to buy silver using the cash back I get on my credit card because it feels like Im getting it for free 😎. I have not paid the CC company any interest in almost a decade either.
WELL DONE, Jakub! 👌🏼
🤯🤯🤯🤯 I've been wondering what I should buy with my cash back...
I'm using the 0% card with long duration until the interest kicks in. It's a way to use the banks money and stack
Wow Yankee nice trade! Agree the nicest way is trading with other stackers! Yankee I have two questions for you ...why you capsule the gold maples (know they are soft 9999 24k but they dont tone) and not the silver maples which will tone..even with the shield right? And second..what capsules you buy lighthouse ultra intercept or airtite from guyonfire?
Stk, toning isn't the issue, nor is milkspotting. BOTH will occur regardless of putting silver in capsules. I also don't encapsulate my 22k AGEs (except one I used to sign off with) due to them being a bit more durable and with the branding of the "Yankee Cannon". However, those 24k gold maples will dent easily, so I put them in capsules for storage. And I use onfireguy and Amazon for my capsule purchases. Hope that helps!
@@YankeeStacking pretty clear answer Yankee wanted your wise opinion, thanks my friend will follow too
@@YankeeStacking also there is an eurpean company called thelighthouse that have capsules with ultra intercept teghnology that should avoid at least for 15 years toning probably you already new them
I don't! You would need to get them encapsulated quickly because the #1 cause of toning/tarnish is the sulfur in our post-industrial age air. I'll check them out! Thanks.
