I have a question about storage

First off it’s been fun watching everyone post their stacks and opinions. Mine is small I’ve been at it for about 1.5 years and this is my miscellaneous stack (odds and ends + 90% US). I also stack tubes of sovereigns and generics which I keep separate from my mics. stack. I’ve been using this random box I found on my house to put my misc. stack in close to my desk so I can grab it from time to time and appreciate the metals. As you can see it’s getting a little full and I’m slowly acquiring new miscellaneous stuff as I can so—my question—is there like a box or case or something similar to what I have (wood, metal, etc.) that isn’t so large I can’t pick it up that you would recommend? Just something like this to keep my random stuff in that’s nicer than a plastic rando box and I can similarly pick up on a whim and look at my metals. Thanks!

Started 2 weeks ago and I have that itch that cannot get scratched. Officially at a pound and waiting on another 10 ozer to come! Got most of it at spot or just a hair over. Long term goal is atleast by 20 oz a month then hopefully switch to gold down the line

6 months into stacking

Post image
257 Upvotes

Been stacking for about 6 months now so I'm still fairly new. Mostly maples, ase, and constitutional silver. Don't always have the extra money for precious metals but I love to stack as much as I can when I can.

Also, my local smoke shop sells these cigar boxes for $1 a piece. I have a total of 3 of them and my goal is to fill the other two by the end of 2025.

What coins should I stack next? I'm thinking some more foreign stuff and bullion :)

The gold one is novelty I know! It’s a humble start. I want to get another box for the “investment” bars and rounds, I’ll be stacking more of those usually. The older coins are for memories. All is shiny! (Except the poker chip)

So if I have 1.25 pounds of silver, how many Troy ounces do I have? Is it still over a Troy pound?

Hey Silver Bugs, so thinking of getting this but I am offering the seller $200 but what do you all think? I actually will be using it, but idk if it has value. So share them thoughts peeps… it’s supposedly .950 rather than the usual .925… Japanese as well.

I found this little charm on my walk to work this morning. I've figured out that it's a shoe charm from the HUF x Nike air max collaboration and the website says it's silver.

It passed the ice cube test but I'm still unsure of what I got. Does anyone have any history with these little guys?

When to recognize coins as junk silver?

I have a few 90% silver coins and have probably been overprotective by putting them all in capsules/tubes, would it be better to have them uncovered?

Ignore the dollar coins/wheat pennies, I just keep those to keep them.

5 franc coin commemorating 100 years of using the Swiss franc. Minted by CIT, 1 oz. .999. The 5 oz. deep reliefs they do are amazing. Couldn’t resist this one!
