Must Own Junk Silver (http://blog.milesfranklin.com/must-own-junk-silver-revisited)
Junk silver is perhaps the worst misnomer on the planet, as no product represents more “value” for the price. Given its small denominations (a “junk dime,” for example, is worth roughly $3), government issuance, and scarcity, no Precious Metal item is better suited for an uncertain future; particularly if the worst-case scenario of a temporary “barter society” emerges.

I found three Morgans at the dealer today. he would not let them go for less than 28 each.

Morgans aren't considered "junk" silver, because they have numismatic value above and beyond their metal value. The junk coins are the ones where their silver value is what counts, i.e. most dimes, quarters and halves.
Of course, really worn or damaged silver dollars can be had closer to spot price.

i refuse to use the term "junk silver".
Circ. Silver is easier for the general public to recognize (as Silver) than 1 ounce rounds and other forms.
As some Youtube video's demonstrate, the General Public sometimes has problems recognizing the value of Silver.
So Circulated US Silver is a great form of Silver.

I love Morgans, even though they aren't 100% silver I'd still rather have them than an Eagle. APMEX had a good deal on some maybe a year + ago, I got the culls, which don't have holes but are tarnished. They look awesome to me, plus they're well over 100 years old. I'm surprised they don't have more numismatic value.
If I were an unscrupulous bastard I would think you could rip someone off just telling them that it's an old ass silver coin.

i love my crusty ass ntr 10 ounce bars. they look like a 5 year old made them.
speaking of crusty ass, i wanted to figure out the diameter of a 1 ounce gold sphere.
seems like the optimum shape for some kinds of cross-border transfers. might feel kind of heavy in your stomach.
here are the calc's -
19.3 gram per cc
1.6113989637305699481865284974093
1.611 cc = 31.1 grams
2.54 cm = 1 inch, 16.387064 cc per cubic inch.
0.09830925173661370944789133672756 cubic inches per 31.1 grams.
make it .0983 cubic inches
then use the online calculator
http://www.basic-mathematics.com/volume-of-a-sphere-calculator.html
.281 radius gives you .0983 cubic inches.
that's 9/16 inch diameter.

These are nice. They are so slick and odd shaped that you could shave and buff them and no one would know without a scale.

Yep. There's a reason that the reeded edge was invented.

i wonder how that would show up on the airport scanner. let's say someone swallowed 10x 1 ounce .999 gold spherical rounds, an hour or 2 before going through the scanner, so that it's in their stomach or upper intestine.
can an airport X-Ray machine see that ? i have the impression that they're tuned to show objects near the surface, e.g. an object (hypothetical weapon) in the rectum or vagina.
if it came down to it, would you rather swallow 10 1 ounce rounds (9/16 inch diameter) or 20x 1/2 ounce rounds (.446 inch diameter) or 40x 1/4 ounce rounds (.354 inch diameter).
the 1/4 ounce rounds would be easier to make. if you used a torch on a 1/4 ounce Maple, you would get a bead that was almost spherical. with a 1 ounce Maple, surface tension wouldn't be enough to counter gravity, and it would be more disc-shaped, so you would actually need a mold to get the sphere shape.
perhaps we should consult Irene Zisblatt. based on her own claims, she is the world record holder on smuggling high-value objects in one's digestive system.

If you were necessitated by some emergency to leave the country and you wanted to take all your wealth with you, would you rather swallow a bunch of coins or spheres, tuck them up your ass, hide them up your nose, or wouldn't it be easier to convert them into bit... ah nevermind.

LCS selling at spot price, had a nice selection of Franklin halves and mercury dimes. Really surprising too, when prices were higher they didn't have chit. Don't waste your time going there now, I cleaned him out!

Go suck a dick. Maybe hit on the ex-wifes boyfriend to show how much you care. You can blame ximmyho for the derail.

Anyway- back on topic.... I saw in another thread where Mamboni posted a Texas Precious Metals exchange email.... they have NO junk silver left. I used to have a couple bags of the stuff til it fell down into the septic tank. I ain't goin in there after it. When the tax man comes, he is welcome to go down in there.
