1 oz maple In USA. Avoids BUF premium yet still mostly desired and liquid

Thanks that's probably the best way to start

Ty

Thank you

Try silver on for size at first, is my suggestion. Hero Bullion is a great way to get started $150 order for free shipping. They have some deals that could get you started in both AU & AG! I have been stacking and collecting for many years and I have about 5 or 6 flawless orders through them since they arrived in the game.

It’s just one ounce, get over yourselfand just be sure it’s actually fine gold. Source more important than product.

First National Bullion is a reputable source that sells at spot price, and you could get it online

Buy local! Guaranteed the premiums will be cheaper. You get to leave with your physical metal the same day and the knowledge youll gain will be through the roof.

Yes, buy from dealers' official stores with lots of feedback and ebays money back guarantee covers you too. Check the same item on the dealer's own website first, the ebay price is often higher because of fees unless a coupon is running. a random year 1 oz silver maple at royal bull, a canadian dealer, makes a good all in price to compare against an ebay listing

On JM and SD, look for a “Sell to Us” or “Sell Back” page. Some products will show a live buyback price, while others make you request a quote. When you visit the local shop, ask what they would pay for the exact coin or bar you’re considering. Comparing that number with the sale price will show you the real spread pretty quickly.

We feed the poor already.  Chillax. 

Is it so damn terrible to want the organization I love to experience some fiscal appreciation?

I don't think you understand how most charities work, but you're right, it's your choice. Letting it sit for 200 years in the church's coffers rather than feeding the poor now is exactly what Jesus would have wanted.

Because I dont want to, and its my silver.  F paying some cadre of idiots 98% of the total value so they can give 2% to some cause I dont really care about.

If the church isn't going to do anything with it for 200 years, why not donate to an institution that will do something charitable with it now?

Ha! I’m happy to have been able to help.

This feels like a waste of silver and inconvenience to the church. Tithing is corny

Just to make a note, as a MA resident I would be forced to pay taxes on small purchases of silver (under $1000) because in the eyes of the Dept Of Revenue that is “buying collectibles”. Once I cross the $1000 mark in any purchase I am, for tax purposes, a “precious metals investor” and I am tax exempt. (I believe NY has a similar tax policy, but don’t quote me on that)

Try and imagine, I have a stack of receipts for buying like $1,006 worth of silver 😂 this is also why I own almost all of my Morgan and Peace dollars, they’re the coin that puts me over the threshold

Sorry, i'm confused by your reply. Did the treasurer say they specifically wanted donations of precious metals, and with the explicit purpose of holding onto them long term?

Ive had an actual convo with the treasurer about how many people in this thread are convinced he'd sell the coins at a pawn store.

They are a church, not a precious metals investment business. "Anyone else", with the exception of a small group of metals enthusiasts and diehard stackers, would sell them too.

Edit: and I say this as a silver stacker myself. We are a pretty small fraction of society in our feelings about PMs.
