Silver Bells

[dfinney]

With all the bells around here it’s definitely Christmas time in the city!

^{Fronts and backs of two new rounds.}

In case you haven’t noticed already, I love Christmas. Obsessively. The lights, the shopping, ornaments, decorations, TV specials, gingerbread houses, ice skating rinks outside, Salvation Army bell ringers, themed cocktails, cheese balls, Pepperidge Farms sausage gift boxes, the smell of garland, snowflakes on EVERYTHING, red Starbucks cups, the NORAD Santa tracker, radio stations that play Christmas music ALL DAY LONG, holiday sweaters on dogs, advent calendars, wrapping gifts, cinnamon scented potpourri... the list goes on and on.

So you would be correct to deduct this obsession also includes Christmas themed silver bars and rounds!

^{Repping the 1990’s}

Since the kick off to the holiday season, I have been buying all the Christmas themed AG goodness I can get my hands on. This includes one sweet bar and a plethora of rounds.

^{Lower left and lower right are on the same silver round. This is my FAVORITE of the rounds. The scene is soooooo Hallmark and the snowflakes on the other side are gorgeous.}

So far my Christmas silver obsession has taken me from JM, to APMEX and even eBay. Making the holiday silver stack seven ounces thicker. As for all of these pieces, each little bell is one ounce and .999 fine.

^{This is one round (front and back) with two silver plated snowflake napkin rings thrown in for good measure. ❄️ This is my second favorite of my new rounds. The little details on the barn and nearby tree are gorgeous.}

Another great aspect with two of these pieces, each arrived in holiday airtites. This mean each plastic container for the silver has a small hole for a hook. The silver can be hung on the tree!

This is AMAZEBALLS.

Thanks for indulging me with my holiday silver share!

Let’s wrap this up with the Christmas song of the day.

I know you have some holiday silver squirreled away already. You can never have too much! 😂

[summertooth]

Awesome possum! You have ALL the Christmas silver. I do like the 1993 bar the best. It seems a fair amount of Christmas silver has a big blank shiny spot on the back, do you find this to be true? And why?
Anyhow, thanks for the show.

P. S. 🚫🐕👚

[dfinney]

Maybe the blank spot is for engraving? I have three with blank backs.

Dogs in holiday outfits are the BEST.

I enjoy the Christmas bars and rounds but the premiums they rape you for them is ridiculous.

[dfinney]

😂🤣
No rapings were perpetrated with these purchases. At my LCS they are always generic prices. The other stuff was all very reasonable. ☺️

[silverd510]

Lucky you. I looked around but most places want $18-$20 per. Then 7% tax on top of that. 😪 the only dealers still not charging me tax yet are Monument Metals, Provident and BGASC. The rest started in August.

[dfinney]

$20 doesn’t bug me cause in my head I still pretend spot is $18. 😂🤣

[silverd510]

That’s a hefty premium but I understand.

[silversaver888]

Beautiful, beautiful, and just beautiful!!! I love it! I can imagine your Christmas Tree filled with silver rounds, coins and bar ornaments in a couple of years, or even faster! WOW... so inspiring!!! Thanks for sharing another wonderful article, lovely silver and holiday music!

[dfinney]

Oh my gosh. That would be something! Much like this holiday classic! 😄
