Starting my Silver Stacking

in #silver7 years ago

Hello Steemit friends. My name is Josh, I am 19 years old and I want to start collecting silver. I have always intrigued by coins and metals, not necessarily collecting but when I received change I always held on to the cool looking ones as long as I could. I want to start collecting because I think coins and bars are really neat and also a good long term investment. So my question for you silver stacking veterans or even fellow newbies, what was your first piece you bought (or was given) to start your collection. I was looking into buy just an average 1oz silver bar to start it off.

I have a small budget cause I am going to University this fall but I thought I'd buy some now cause the price is down somewhat, and its better to start a collection early.
I was also contemplating buy a neat Canadian coin from the RCM celebrating the 150th anniversary. silver coin.jpg
So to repeat my question, what was your first silver piece of your collection(a picture would be cool too) and also I am looking for any tips you can give to newbies like myself. Thanks so much in advanced ^_^

The first silver bullion coin I received was a 2016 Australian Stock Horse. If you're not able to afford a lot of silver, I suggest entering giveaways. Instagram is a great app to connect with people over numismatics and precious metals, plus it's convenient.
