RE: Silver of the Day #45 - Ugly Silver
American Eagle for sure! You are right this one is ugly. But would probably still own it. LOL

I'm with you there as well. I would rather own something that is classy and well-known than something that makes me want to throw it away whenever I see it. I would need to get a great deal on this round to buy it... and even then it would just be so that I had trade fodder. :D
LOL trade fodder! lol love that phrase. haha did I tell you i didn't realize that I had a lot of US coins that were .9 silver and I didn't know it?
I don't know if "trade fodder" is a commonly used phrase. It just came to me and I thought it appropriate and applicable.
NO! You didn't tell me!!! Congrats! Those are some of my favorites! I just got a few more recently and I love the look of them. They look so much better than the newer quarters. I'm looking forward to seeing them! (I've been doing a terrible job of making the rounds, so feel free to drop a comment on me if I miss the post.) :)
Yeah I didn't even realize it, I was watching some youtube videos about coins, trying to see what dates I should be looking for, and then they started talking about silver US coins, I was like, wait I have some of those! lol
Ha, that's funny. Well, I'm glad that you realized they were silver, and not just some other coins that you had saved. It's a shame to see them discarded or spent rather than being cherished like they should be.
That is true, how many silver coins are spent, because the person doesn't realize their true value?? haha :)
If U get a good enough deal, it is "pouring fodder" ;-)
That is how the pourers get silver, at least one way.
They can melt generic rounds. Plus it's a known purity.
I haven't gotten into pouring yet, but I have heard some of the folks here talk about how they need more silver to pour with. A lot of times when the sales come up and they can get random rounds for $0.39 over spot, they'll get some and turn them into something entirely different.
my original stacker website silverdoctors.com has the buffalo rounds for that price a lot... Very nicely minted, and CHEAP!
I looked those up and the new buffalo rounds can actually be a little cheaper than my local coin store, if you buy in large enough quantities. I haven't gotten to ordering online yet as I rarely hold enough money long enough to make a large purchase. Basically as soon as I have any money, I'm running to the LCS to get more silver for the stack. :)
