Pirat in the making

in #steemsilvergold7 years ago

This was actually my first order to get the stacking started.

100 oz of silver

I ordered it around 4 weeks ago via silvergoldbull and it took a while till it arrived but it is looking like it was worth the wait?

I would say so.

As I ordered it to Germany I made a huge mistake to order silver as a bar and I have learned from it but even I paid a lot of taxes on this thing I am pretty happy to call it my own.

Nice foundation base. One can stack a lot of silver on a 100 oz of silver bar. Royal Canadian Mint Silver Bars are one of best, with .9999. Geiger makes a beauty, but only .999. Perth Mint is up there, too.

It looks massive. Although there doesn't seem to be anything to compare it too in your pictures, so I guess It could be smaller than it looks. I've been thinking about stacking some silver myself tbh. I feel as if I need to start hedging against the fiat system with something other than crypto, Just as fail safe. Good to see I'm not the only one with this idea :)

Holding a silver bar is much more satisfying,
I loved to hold the bar, feel its texture and I even kissed the bar I had :P

you must also be very happy :)

It's beautiful my dear friend congratulations.

pretty happy atm. Thank you

Wow. That's a big start! Too bad about the VAT! Is it true that coins are exempt, but not bullion? Cause I know I've seen "coin-bars" before.

yes there are some and I will stick to them or coins for now probably. But I really like that beast for some reason...

Any idea how to buy with crypto?

Apmex accepts Bitcoin (same price as check or wire) JM Bullion accepts Bitcoin, too, but slightly higher than check or wire.

There are plenty of options, do some research. One is Victoreanum near Munich ... thinking further down that road could give you even more options ... you'll find them, I'm sure! Cheers from Mount Ölberg in the Seven Hills

I bought through bitgild and silvergoldbull so far they both accepting crypto.

Nice😊👍

Sehr cool! Willkommen im Club! Ich glaube, ich weiß jetzt, was mein nächstes 5€-Schein Sparziel sein wird...gut 3 Kilo sind durchaus imposant...

ja das ist ne sehr gute idee.

So sehe ich das auch!

Though it took a long time before the arriving of the silver as you said. But, making you happy on finally achieving your aim is the key because it shows how desperate you desire for it. I am happy for you.

thanks :-)

What a cutie :-) Where did you bought it?

silvergoldbull.de

Kommen die Münzen aus dem Ausland- Firma ist ja in Berlin wie es aussiehtl? Habe gerade gesehen auch für Münzen 19% Mwst. Ist ja nicht unbedingt üblich auf Silbermünzen.

soweit ich weiss ja aber bei Münzen hatte ich noch auf andern Seiten geschaut, da sie da differenziert besteuert sind.Bzw vergleiche wo ich sie am günstigsten kriege.

bitgild silvergoldbull und victoreanum waren die 3 Seiten die ich bis jetzt benutzt habe.

Merci- ich schau mich mal um.

You prefer the larger 100 ounce bars to smaller denominated coins or rounds? I know the premium on smaller denominations is higher but it's also helpful when it come time to liquidate as you're not forced to sell 100oz at a time. I really like the Canadian Maple leafs as they have some of the lowest premiums over spot (especially not current year coins) while having the purest silver content. Congrats on the bar though!! Stacking chips!

My next pick ups will be coins. I just wanted to have something special.

Wie stehts um den Silber Preis?

Was ich gelesen hatte, ist Silber günstig atm den genauen Tagespreis kann ich dir atm aber nicht nennen gerade.

Wow, starting off with a bang! Nice bar!

I’ve got several and the past 5 years, I’ve been using it a paper weight haha

Will stick to one for now but would get some more in the future

Great choice! RCM 4 x 9 is some strong stuff!

Welcome to the silver-keepers. I prefer coins ;)

coins will be probably my only silver pick ups in the future

Swetness I hear 10oz bars to 1 oz bars or rounds are the way to go. To many people are skeptical about what could be inside a 100oz silver bar and often will drill into it before buying it. Congrats on the 100 oz!

I actually did just trust the name....but yeah....I can only hope it is real.

My next silver buys will be coins anyway because of the taxes but I still feel it is cool.

Yo I would as well :D lol congrats on the big hunk of silver

nice!

Nice bar there! ah, just wait about a year or so and those taxes will get paid off with the appreciation of the metal or the depreciation of what was used to pay for it - take your pick

I think so, too.

You can also buy coinbars if you want to save taxes. I look cook island bars they are very beautiful. If you want to invest inb silver taxfree, checkout my post

Wher did you purchase in Germany. My favourite Bulliondealeris Victoreanum because they also accept bitcoins.
Nice big bar btw.

yes, I found out later and will do so from now on. I bought via silvergoldbull

Very interesting, One question @flipstar. Do you usually post about illustrations?

Very nice man, sucks to get nailed with the VAT importing into the EU, those big bars are sweet, I don't own any, but love handling when I'm at shows with my buddy.

yeah the VAT sucks but I am still happy to have one now. Future buys will be coins probably

Congratulations on your first silver bar. Looks beautiful.

She's a beaut...Nice way to start!

I hope she does not to stay lonely

I'm sure she will find a partner very soon. ;-)

wow schönes Teil!!

glaube auch bis jetzt hab ich es ja nur auf Bildern gesehen :-(

These are the perfect long term investments , I remember when I had a gold bar years ago and I sold it at the time of my wedding . I mean I was able to get a couple hundred more , I’m happy with that

that is good. I hope I can keep it for several years.

Haha you did that to the title again.
I am beginning to suspect it may be a keyboard problem.😎

lol.... yes that is my excuse now :-)

Excuse to get a new keyboard.

I'm jealous! LOL

I take that as a good thing :-)

Hey i dont understand why you ordered it not in Germany?
Hey versteh nicht warum du es nicht in Deutschland bestellt hast?

hatte keine Seite gefunden bei der ich mit crypto zahlen kann

Wow that's an absolute beast ! Really magnificent. If silver heads to its real price this puppy will be worth a small fortune

I hope so :-)

Now that's how you get started. Next you buy all my products 😂 I thought I jumped in hard when I bought a kilo. But a 100 ouncer is jumping in the deep end for sure! I salute you sir 😁

I cant stop anymore :-)

Will probably stick to coins for a while now.

You deliver to Germany?

Worldwide shipping my friend 👍

I had the opportunity to hold a 100 oz generic bar at a Resource Convention and Silver gold Bull had a display present. Big! Whew! Congratulations on acquiring such a big bar. At least in Canada 999 silver is tax free. Maybe I could have purchased it here for you and send it to you as a "Paper weight" gift.

I am not sure if this would work or if this would already be smuggeling. But the VAT sucks

Boom 100oz and I though my 1Kg was big. You’ve knocked me out of the park.

But you can not eat silver. ;)

That is true but you can look at it for a while

Cool! is that a newer pour of RCM? 2017? I think i have older bars

Wow! Congratulation !!!!!!!!
Nice Start.......
