Is buying high premium Maple leaves or American eagles worth it over generic rounds or bullion?

>> No.10742886

no they're not, that being said I'm still hoarding a lot of 2016 kookaburras along with my bars and generics

Yes that's a better investment but silver is a better savings account to hedge against your dollars, crypto and equities

>> No.10742921

Generally no. Unless you find a deal on the secondary market.

Bars are fine too. It is all quite liquid these days. I wish I would have purchased more bars.

What do you mean high premium?

Maples are the one of the lowest because the Canadian mint smears them with shit so casual collectors avoid them like the plague.

If you're using it as a hedge, silver has a terrible recent record against gold - so just use gold. Silver's too easy to dig out of the ground

what do you goobers think is going to happen to the price of these metals after people see crypto as a viable alternative

Funny thing is, this kind of shit converts precious metals basically into fiat
>this piece of metal is worth more because of government printing on it than this piece of metal
If you think about it, it's the same shit as printing "value" onto paper and making some paper worth more than others. If you're into gold or silver, buy the purest but the cheapest and don't fall for the government scam.

too bad that pure bars are taxed 20% here while coins only are taxed 7%

Holy shit why's there a tax on it? Lmao so you lose 7-20% of your investment right away, that means you have to make 10-25% gains to break even? Who would buy an instant loss?

These aint premium coins nigger. They are bottom of the barrel nigger-tier shitcoins. Real investors buy Pandas, Lunars, coins with low mintage minted by obscure German mints on behalf of African countries etc.

But if you want to be an amerifat shit and buy prepper-tier silver which means Christmas bars from 1983 that will never have any collectable value then sure, go ahead. Meanwhile I'll enjoy my profits by buying low mintage in demand coins that continually go up in value which i then unload on new collectors for a nice profit enabling me to buy even more silver. You amerifats get that? no? well enjoy your shitty christmas bars then... faggots.
