You MUST complete rules 1-4 in order to be eligible for entry into this giveaway. I will be using random.org to select one lucky winner at 11am ET on March 11, 2018.
If you have any questions feel free to tag me in the comment section. I will respond as soon as possible. Check out my two most recent blog entries if you have interest in precious metals. Thank you and your time and goodluck!
I wonder if you think we should buy the PM's on the Dip, or
wait until after the "possible" Reset of our U.S. Coinage...???
COIN MAN by @pocketechange ...A penny may cost a dollar...
@pocketchange I believe it's usually worth buying at any dip. How much to buy is the tough question. Keeping the "possible" reset in mind. I've always found waiting for something to happen has caused me to miss out what's happening now.
Both have positives and negatives. If I had to chose one it would be precious metals due to their history of worth over thousands of years.
Good to have you as part of the #steemsilvergold community
Valid point there. Appreciate the welcome into the community! @kp138
If timed correctly, crypro-currencies are hands down the best “investment” there is. Massive gains can 10x or 20x your buy-in in little time. However, one only benefits when something tangible can be withdrawn from aforesaid gains. And this is where the PMs literally shine.
Without specific parameters it is hard to opine one way or the other, but the 1-2 punch has been a knock-out and stack-up method for me.
Agreed! I believe the 1-2 punch is the way to go. Safety and security along with high risk reward.
I believe right now you can make more money with Crypto's on a percentage basis over the next couple of years. I do like Precious Metals too as you can see @stokjockey postings...............
@stokjockey Stack em up!! 👍
Neither is "better" they both serve a different investment purpose.
Crypto is the best high risk investment, biggest gains possible, risk and volatility. Silver is one of the best wealth preservation investments.
Depending on where your risk profile is and current portfolio allocation is where allocations are pointed.
It's always interesting to hear different perspectives. Appreciate you taking the time to express yours.@senstless
Get it man can wait to see more bars
@kalistacking Thanks!
metals is still a better investment in my opinion in a shtf scenario or EMP aftermath.

I was gifted both from a 70 yo lady. Can you explain what the serial number and letters mean?
@raserrano I would agree metals are a safer long term investment. The PF prefix bar's you have pictured below have an estimated mintage of <800,000. This style 1oz bar has many different serial number prefixes. Including P, PA, PE, and PG. There has been no information explaining what these prefixes stand for. Atleast to my knowledge anyways. Thanks for sharing your photo.
Thanks for the info
I don't think I can really add to what most people have commented to be honest. Most of us clearly "stack" a precious metal of some kind and a large chunk of us have started investing in cryptos also.
It was silver for me before cryptocurrency and it will always be precious metals. I totally get what cryptos have to offer and for me it's a way to purchase more silver.
Cryptocurrency for the generation of wealth and precious metals for the storage of wealth. Hope that makes sense.
@welshstacker Makes perfect sense to me ! Thanks for participating.
I was a big silver & gold man (thanks to Ron Paul mainly)
WizNote: Luckily I had invested in some gold & silver before my wife got cancer. I was able to sell some at quite a profit, to help sustain us through the financial trials of all those medical bills (even with excellent insurance...). BTW She fought like a girl, but kicked cancer's butt!!! 6 going on 7 years cancer free now! woohoo

@wizardave Amazing story about your wife. Love hearing that. Thanks for participating!
You're welcome & thanks for the contest @silveringots!
😎 Cool idea
I'm pretty proud of her and also feel blessed I had a bit of "real" money...
To get gold and silver (read everything), I must first trade my time (at a job)
Unfortunately most people don't think like that. That is what drives me when i look for a job. It was driving me even when i didn't know that in the past. For the past 15 years, I have worked on more than 100 jobs (students included) and i quit when i don't like spending my time there. Now I work on several different project close to subjects I like or/and with people i love/like.
Because time is what we have.
Spend it whith people you love
HI @mandalacode
Yes, it is sad but thrue.
Tnx for support, i have bring some of them already :)
@mandalacode Great comment. I appreciate your perspective. Thank you for participating!
I've been using cryptos to buy more metals so honestly I can't pick which is better? I prefer metals as they're not as volitile and more fun to hold so I guess if I had to pick I'd go with the shiny 👍😎
I have been doing the same. The combination is a strong play in my opinion. Thanks for participating. @goldenarms
