One of my good friends was really into purchasing silver.

silver is too bulky, would be good for small barter if it comes to that

Previous Message I’d like to squirrel away a bunch of hard assets as a hedge against this market bubble popping. I don’t want a storage account or shares in a mining concern, I want physical bullion. But despite the steady run up of the price of gold, there doesn’t seem any to be had. Every online dealer I’ve checked has been out of stock for quite a while. Maybe have to buy a bunch of ammo as an alternative currency for SHTF.

Previous Message Almost got me into it as well. The small bars and coins he showed me were pretty cool. This was a few years ago. He hasn't mentioned it lately so I don't know whether he is still buying any.

I have GLTR shares as close enough - still indirect, though*

From just a pure hobby standpoint, collecting some of the bars and coins would be fun.
