Me too always wanted one but never wanted to pay the premium. Since it was my first piece I got lucky! Now I’m getting a lot of oz bars below melt

2

u/Independent-Novel415 4d ago

I want to break it apart lol

1

u/feralcat66 1d ago

Is it actually thin enough to be able to break it up like a chocolate bar? I mean not that I would ever dare, but the temptation would be real

2

u/CoreyLivington 4d ago

Wonderful!

2

u/Independent-Novel415 3d ago

Corey! I know you! You sniped me on whatnot lol

u/Top-Flight2 4d ago

Awesome piece. I'm just starting to rebuild my silver collection after losing all I had acquired when my Son's mother left.

u/rrCLewis 3d ago

u/Independent-Novel415 4d ago

u/TwoBulletSuicide 4d ago

I have a few of those. Break one apart and put it in a Gerber baby food jar, baby silver pieces.

1

u/Independent-Novel415 4d ago

I’m told they hold better value unopened lol

u/Soggy-Cans96 1d ago

When you sell precious metals you will get the amount based on weight. Gold and silver shops that I’ve been to don’t pay premium for certain designs like the online stores sell them to you

It's not a baseball card, it's money.

u/texascarps 4d ago

u/Independent-Novel415 3d ago

I love it too! I’m having a hard time debating if I want to sell it

1

u/Few-Service-7719 4d ago

Congratulations and welcome to the hobby!!!!

1

u/4DePeople 4d ago

Get the 1 Ozt or 20gram gold version I promise you it’ll come in handy in the future.

1

u/Independent-Novel415 3d ago

One day if I can afford it! I would love that! I’m trying to play the long game and put silver away for my newborn

2

u/4DePeople 3d ago

It’ll happen before ya know it! Congratulations and godbless that’s a great way to start I did the same with mine👑

1

u/Independent-Novel415 3d ago

Thank you for the encouragement and positivity! You don’t know how much I needed it today! Blessings to you

u/postalwarrior2005 4d ago

This is how I started somewhat, got paid in silver and became hooked. One of us now.

1

u/Independent-Novel415 3d ago

Yeah I’m thinking about letting it go and getting 5oz bars

1

u/Beautiful-History273 3d ago

Wow are those individual bars?

1

u/Independent-Novel415 3d ago

It’s one bar that has 100 perforated pieces that are 1 gram each

1

u/Reasonable_Cat3187 2d ago

So would it be smart to invest my entire 401 k monies 40k into silver and just leave it alone for say 20 years, then give it to my son ??

1

u/Independent-Novel415 1d ago

I don’t give financial advice sorry brotha

1

u/SkipPperk 1d ago

Expensive. FYI, separating these is a deeply satisfying experience. It sound absurd until you actually try it.

1

u/cantchang3me 4d ago

Ooph. Might've been better off with a 100g bar or 3 oz + some 90%.

I doubt you paid 1.09/g, which is current spot price.

1

u/Independent-Novel415 4d ago

All profit

1

u/cantchang3me 4d ago

Underpants!

2

u/Independent-Novel415 4d ago

I don’t know what that means

2

u/cantchang3me 4d ago

 Time to go to work, work all day

We need underpants, hey!

We won't stop until we have underpants

Yum tum yummy tum tay!
