Yes it is always good to diversify your stacking investments @silversaver888π
I guess I started with "Junk Silver" too because as a kid I could pick the Silver out in change. These times are long gone, but I remember other people would trade me clad Quarters for Silver Quarters because they new I collected them....and either were only worth .25 cents....at the time!!!π
A very nice post my friend, I enjoyed reading this !!πππ€

WOW... to have experience silver coinage in circulation... when real money circulated! BTW, when I started watching YT videos on silver stacking, there were some hoarding boxes and boxes of pennies. What was that for?
Have a beautiful day, my friend @silvertop, and take care π₯°πΊπ€!

People that collected Silver coins when I was a kid were forward thinking about where the price was going and what they were removing from our real money. Copper prices were rising to the point that a (Wheat) penny was worth more than a penny.
Up to 1982 penny's were 95% copper and 5% other metal...
Then after 1982 they switched to 97.5% Zinc and 2.5% Copper
Now they are 99.2% Zinc and only .8% copper.....
I still keep all of my "real" copper penny's, I'll never retire over these penny's .....Hmm I'm already retired LOL!π€
Good thing I didn't call myself @coppertop!π
