- It's been a busy month and I continued to focus my buys on vintage silver bars and rounds at very good prices when spot was around 14. I also added some Mooney Metals custom poured bars. He can be found on Instagram @mooneymetals. I also added some junk silver and some cool foreign silver coins this past month.
Wow, you had a great six weeks! So many great pickups! So awesome!
Really appreciate it.
Wow!! Some amazing bars and purchases. Thanks so much for sharing. You are a vintage bar king!
+SalivateMetal I appreciate the nice words, Salivate. Sorry I have not been by lately. I'm trying to catch up on videos as we speak. Hope you are well and kitty, too!
Thank you sir. All is well here. Thanks my friend.
WOW, big addition in 6 weeks! Congratulations in your old poured silver bars- I can tell that you are very pleased with your pick-ups. Very, very nice. Thanks for sharing.
+Silver Saver Thanks SS. I'm like a kid in a candy store when I come across vintage pieces. I was very fortunate to have scored a bit lot wholesale recently. I appreciate you coming by.
Holy shit! What great additions, Mr Stackmaster. Unreal!!
👊👊👊
Great haul on those vintage bars and old foreign coins! I love that 50 gram round with those awesome pour lines. Sweet!! LLS
+LadyLibertyStacker Hey LLS, thanks so much for coming by. Yes, I have enjoyed the Mooney Metals bars. Fun when you have a friend in the business. I'm thinking about trying to do some of my own pours if I can find the time. HiHo's videos have inspired me a bit! Looks like a lot of fun, but definitely time consuming.
StackMaster G Yep, it is nice when you know someone in the business! HiHo does a nice job taking care of me! :-) Stay tuned, I have a special package coming in from him too.
Very cool! Look forward to seeing it.
Awosome haul, congrats on those vintage bars pickups. Thanks for sharing.
+Silverstar Tan Thanks for watching ST.
Vintage Barmaster G!! Stellar month buddy! Incredible pieces your always able to acquire!
+SilverHustlin13 Thanks pal. You have been one of my best ambassadors. I appreciate the support brother.
Wow man, that's quite the haul! Congrats on all those beautiful vintage bars!
+silver buyer Holy Shit! SB is back. Damn man..I miss your vids and commentary of vids :). How are you? I never see you on IG any more. I'll start tagging you again if you are online. Really good to hear from you buddy.
As always, thanks for sharing. Love those foreign coins!
+InFrontOfYourBack1 Yes, I'm trying to pick up more foreign lately. I'm a sucker for the silver crown sized coins from around the world.
Wow! Great video, Love the bars and your personal silver from Mooney Metals
+Silver Diva Thanks SD. Really appreciate you watching. Hope you are well.
Dam! I'm in love with that Nevada bar! Wow
It's an ultra rare piece. I got real lucky. Thanks for watching.
Super cool collection of vintage silver bars🙏✨🙏
I really appreciate you coming by and sharing feedback.
Brand new viewer. Awesome stack! I enjoy all stacking vídeos. Yours however, takes stacking up several levels. I came, saw, learned, loved!!!
I appreciate the nice words. Glad you enjoy the videos.
Awesome stuff; enough for two or three videos!!!
+SilverStrike Thanks SS. I went a little nuts this month, but with vintage, they don't come around every day, so I strike while the iron is hot. I did get very good prices on most everything, fortunately.
Wow, those are some absolutely fabulous pickups! Outstanding! I do have some Engelhards from '82 to '85, but I don't think I have any '86 or '87. If I do, it's probably only 1. But I have less than 40 total. Loved the bars! Thanks for sharing!
Glad you enjoyed it 👍. Thanks for stopping by.
Wow, great looking bars. Relatively new to stacking, so very informative
+Dray2701 I appreciate the positive feedback.
Awesome pickups, love the video!!
+amerifox7 Thanks Amerifox. Sorry I have not been by lately. I"m so behind on everyone's channels. How's everything?
You picked up some series weight this month. Thanks for sharing buddy!
+Mercury Mark Thanks for coming by MM. Appreciate it.
Very impressed with the bar great job
+Platinum Skies Thanks for coming by PS.
wow u are truly the stackmaster !
Thx for sharing this.
Subbed
Appreciate the nice words. I subbed you back.
Fun to see all those bars of Silver. Neat foreign pieces also, History. StackMaster G Round.
+MrUlfang Thanks buddy! How have you been? I appreciate you being a regular on my channel.
Thanks for education and more ideas i can borrow
Nice bars with nice case!
+MrVegiita Thanks for coming by. Yes, the old Apmex box is great for storing these bars..lol.
300+ OZS You are stacking hard. The bars and the foreign coins really stand out. Thank You for sharing them G. :-)
Thanks for coming by and supporting the channel 👍👍👍
Price is right doubt you can go wrong.
Beautiful bars! I really dig those Amarks. anytime I see an old bar that is a strange weight I try to pick it up. Great job over the last month or two. 300 oz is no joke! Crazy!
+TheSilverVee Thanks TheSilverVee. I know you have some great vintage pieces, too. I have enjoyed seeing the diversity in your stack. I'm really getting into foreign silver coins lately, too. Got to get some gold in the stack, though. Been awhile since I picked up gold.
The bar at 9:05 looks familiar...I'm sure you bought that from my ebay store....right on!! I got it for spot at my LCS. I'm happy to see it found a good home! :)
+SightSetOnSilver haha...What's your eBay store? That is a really sweet bar and you never see them in this kind of condition. I'll be buying more from you in the future if it was your store. DM me when you get good pieces and I'll buy direct from you, which makes for no fees :).
StackMaster G I sent you a PM.
Omg...Master I got my Bib out for this one....All great but agree the Nevada bar the coolest!
+PART TIME PREPPERS Thanks for the comments, PTP. Glad you enjoyed it. Hope you are doing great.
Nice show! Those engelhard rounds are some of the best I have seen. Love all of the vintage poured, but I don't know much about it to appreciate the rarity of each....but still very cool.
+Charmcity Stacker Thanks CS. I really lucked out on those rounds and picked them up cheap when spot was much lower than today. Yes, vintage takes time to understand. It's a unique segment of the market, but very lucrative if you know what to look for. Great reseller market.
+StackMaster G Any sites or forums you recommend?
silveringot.blogspot.com Ken Conway is a great guy that I correspond with regularly. He is the preeminent expert on vintage ingots as far as I'm concerned. His blog is like the bible of old silver bars.
Fantastic pickups!!!
Thanks for stopping by
thats a good six weeks . those bars are sweet. great video
+obeast121 Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for checking it out.
I like your office, it reminds me of a super nice pawn shop! Great looking bars, silver will hit $25 spot again soon!!
👍👍👍. Thanks for coming by.
Very nice collection
thank you
Awesome bars
Lots of great silver bars and rounds, StackMaster G. You got quite a haul there!
+JM Engelhard Thanks JME! I know you have a love for vintage, too. You have pieces in your collection that I can only dream of finding. Take care.
StackMaster G Thank you for the compliments. You take care too!
very nice. my favorite was the Prussian 3 marks.
+Numismatic Fanatic Yes, it's a really cool coin. I'm really more into world crown sized coins and buy them whenever I can get a deal. I really do enjoy the history behind the coins.
You were slightly busy LOL! Great haul WOW :)
+J Silver LOL. I din't realize how much I had stacked to be honest, until I did this pick up video. I'm sick! Lol.
BOOM!..good to see ya back with a video..how did I know you were secretly stacking in HUGE amounts again...lol...another EPIC haul...;)....really love those vintage bars..I have yet to pick up just one...don't see them much here where I live...love it ALL!
+scotty06wwjd Thanks Scotty06wwjd. What's your favorite bar out there of the ones you have seen?
My favorite new style bar out of all I have seen is probably the 100 gram cast Scottsdale bar..I also like their 10 oz poured...but as far as vintage bars...I dunno, they all look really cool to me...especially the bread loaf shapped chunky looking ones..as opposed to the flat ones..I'll come across one I'm sure...are the premiums on those vintage usually a lot more than the newer bars?
Yes, vintage carries much higher premiums due to the age and collectability/scarcity. I have a bunch of Scottsdale products. Among modern bullion producers, they do a great job. I have the 5 oz prey bar, 5 oz poured, 10 oz poured, 100 gram and the stackers. Great stuff!
AWESOME!...sounds like you got most of the neat Scottsdale products..;)..they do an amazing job...and I figured the vintage carries a much higher premium, from what I have heard...but definitaley worth paying extra to get some neat stuff..;)
If you look in enough LCSs, you can occasionally pick vintage up for like 3-4 over spot. Some of the pieces, I have acquired for a few bucks over spot are commanding 40-50 per oz on the collectors market.
great pickups, looks like you had a pretty solid month!
+Silver BullionNumi It was quite a month for stacking. I appreciate you coming by.
Love the stack bro thanks for shareing......i love that 1984 i was born in that 1984....lol lol....just subbed to your page bro
Super stacker status G. Your collection is filling out incredibly well. The bars you've picked up recently are amazing ~>
+of the earth Thanks pal. I appreciate it and you are definitely one of my favorite stackers bud. You have a very impressive collection yourself.
I picked up a 1982 proof engelhard prospector round
Great stack!
Much appreciated
Really cool thank you for video
+Marcus Silveritis I appreciate you watching and leaving feedback.
Love your stack! You pick up some of the coolest bars! Always excited to watch your vids! Thanks for sharing!
+lllSilver Hunterlll Thanks for the nice feedback.
Great couple months there bud! You obviously have the hookup on the old pours.
+silver supplement Yes, this is an area that I really want to develop my collection in. I have resold a handful that I have doubles of, but generally have a hard time parting with any. I have forged several dealer relationships out of state and it's starting to pay off. I try to buy in bulk, so I get wholesale rates on the bars. I have passed the ones I don't want to friends and it lowers my cost by doing this. It's a lot of fun. Have you checked out Ken Conaways blog? silveringot.blogspot.com? Phenomenal resource.
+StackMaster G No I haven't, but I will check it out. Thank you for the resource!
No problem man.
Loving those bars, that's a stack to be proud of. Subbed
I appreciate the sub 👍
Wow StackMaster G, looks like you had a busy 6 weeks... I always like to see the Aussie products (but being an Australian I tend to be bias). Great coins and bars (loving the vintage). Also very interesting to see those foreign coins. Well done and thanks for sharing :) cc.
+The Coin Couch Really appreciate you coming all this way to watch :). Yes, I'm a big fan of Perth. If you can find some of the old Perth silver bars, they fetch silly money over here. Take care.
Well actually I am an Aussie living in Germany (so not as far). I used to work for RAM as I a guide and I missed giving tours. That is why I started my channel... (So I can talk still talk about coins). I will keep an eye out for those bars :) cc.
+The Coin Couch I'll be sure to visit your channel.
Feel free StackMaster G :)
nice collection
I appreciate it.
I love your bars, I need to get some hand poured bars just love how they look.
They are beautiful pieces of history. I can't get enough of the vintage old pours. Thanks for commenting 👍
Yeah I can't wait to get some. I'm still pretty much starting out.
+Sliver Snake I started with generic bullion and gradually gravitated to vintage bars.
I got a few Scottsdale bars and some hand poured bars (not vintage) and some random generic ones. I'm still pretty new to Silver bullion, so I'll stay there for now. But eventually I'll branch out. That's whats great about your vids, I get to learn about them before just buying.
👍👍👍
Haven't heard your voice for a while but you sound like you have a cold... Very nice pickups for your stack! Stack on...
+Not Sonew Yes, got the cold from my wife. That's life! :). Thanks for coming by and commenting.
Kick ass! Nice weight! Jer
wow that's right buddy hope you are doing good friend
+todd mitch Thanks TM. Hope all is well with you.
Three hundred ounces in 6 weeks is pretty impressive! Some great stuff in amongst that lot.
+CyberCurtainTwitcher Thanks CCT. Really appreciate you coming by as always. Hope you are doing well.
StackMaster G Yeah, i'm good thanks, still adding some gold & silver, mostly older stuff with zero chance of milk spotting.
haha...yes, stay away from the those milk spots. I'm going to try and add some more gold myself. I picked up a handful of fractional 1/10th oz pieces in January for very low premiums, in fact close to melt. Wish I would have bought more, but you never know when metals will spike.
StackMaster G Very true about the price. I grabbed a gorgeous shield back half sovereign & have a 1/10 eagle on its way this week. I also got various silver from the Victorian era up to the 80's & traded some coin slides for a few modern pieces.
+CyberCurtainTwitcher very cool. Sounds like you have been pretty active, as well.
Great video and nice additions to your stack =)
Really appreciate you coming by
LOL I *almost* scooped up that Nevada bar myself but went for the WSR bar instead because it has a rough brain pour look that is really cool.. I will get around to posting it on G+ once a few more pickups come in for February. We've slowed way down since spot started creeping up but we do find a good buy every now and again. It's good to be able to use discounted giftcards again LOL
+Silver Siren LOL! I was able to buy is for much less than the asking fortunately. It's a really unique piece. I can't wait to see your WSR. I have the smaller WSR in sub 5 oz variety, but want the 10+ variety. Always enjoy your pics and hope to join one of the hangouts soon. SilverHustlin13 speaks highly of them. I've been so busy with other thinks lately, but I'll get there soon.
+StackMaster G We'd love to have you join us live, I've been wanting to do an "all about bars" hangout for some time now, no rush of course :)
I can't do today's, as my parents are visiting, but I really really love the idea of a "all about bars" hangout. super cool!
Very nice pickups, also subbed.
I appreciate the sub ✌️
Man that Engelhard round looks even better than I thought from Instagram! Hell of a month keep it up! - Silver___Guy
Hey buddy! Thanks for checking it out. Yes, sometimes on the high def video you get a different look at coins and bars. I've really enjoyed posting on IG and it's great to see some of you guys on YT. When are we going to do a trade 👊? You have some pieces I really like. I know you probably won't part with that Silverfarm or 5 oz GA 😂😂😂
ill start thinking on a trade! Its certainly possible but it would have to be for something just so fantastic lol Mooney always offers me stuff for the GA but so far nothings worked hahaha
+VDBpenny1995 lol! Well tell me what you are looking for. I may just find it.
+StackMaster G honestly I barely even know what I'm looking for! 😁 I'm sure you'll find something soon that I'll just have to have
+VDBpenny1995 lol. Take a look at my stuff and let me know if there is anything of interest.
Great looking stack, nice additions, you have me interested in the mooneymetals, I live in the same county.
Very cool.
Thanks for watching
+AG Ender You can find Mooney Metals on Intagram at @mooneymetals He is doing some awesome 50 gram custom rounds for me right now.
+StackMaster G nice, the 50gram would probably be where I'd have to start, funds wise.
Awesome additions. How much do those hoffman and hoffman go for these days.
+Erli niner (9er) The H and H go for stupid premiums online. Most fetch 280-300+ range. I paid considerable less for mine. Most of these old pours have numismatic value, as collectors go crazy to add the more unique and scare ones to their collection.
#44th Thumbs up ma man, glad to see your okay and doing well...
+Seattle206723 Hey Seattle, appreciate you coming by man. Hope all is well with you.
Nice job, man! Don't flip any. Hold. Most of us think we're headed into some exciting times for us 'ants' who have been busy socking silver. :)
Always good to hold some precious metals for those really rainy days 👍. Thanks for stopping by.
I have a Rothschild 500 gram bar if interested.
Wickedly sick video!
You weren't kidding when you said you had some vintage stuff coming. Unreal.
I'm watching this video again tomorrow going thru the bars again. Love that stuff.
What average per ounce price did you pay for the vintage bars?
+Silver Orgold On most of them, I paid 19/oz, but one a few I paid 18 and a few above 20. I really do try to get these at wholesale rates. I could resell every bar on the video for a profit, but can't part with them! How are things with you?
SMG,
Watching this video again this morning.
Crazy, unreal.
I'm eyeing some vintage silver myself, especially if they're at same cost as the modern bars.
I recently bought another 100 oz silver bar.....an Engelhard extruded style.
Also, I was fortunate to have bought several ounces of gold, when spot was near $1100. Then, I decided to flip them all recently with gold at $1225. Score for me.
Nice video again. Must be cold in northern California, I see you're wearing a vest. Ha.!!
We just had 95 degrees last week and now mid-70's this week.
Thanks again buddy and so glad you are a fan of vintage. The return on investment can be very good if you get these rare bars at less than 4-5 over spot. When you get into ultra rare, spot is not even remotely a factor. They are like rare coins to some extent. I know of bars that have gone for 2-3 grand at auction. Those are very old ingots from the 40's-50's though and are almost never seen. Yes, it's been chilly here. Take a look at this blog, written by Ken Conway. silveringot.blogspot.com as a reference for vintage bars. He's a great guy who I have gotten to know over the last few months.
Your fans demand a new video!
It's coming soon!
Love the vintage stuff. Was that from a coin shop?
Thanks for the nice words. Some of this was acquired through a dealer, some at a coin show, and dome through an Instagram connection.
Good looking vintage bars and the rest of the silver! You did not show the 4 gold pandas? Did you sell them?
I completely forgot about the Gold Pandas!! 😂. I will share those on the next vid. How you doing in the market?
Things seem to stabilize in the markets for me, although on a lower level. Just collecting my regular divs, using them for bills now. Maybe I will start re-investing next few months. Market has been disappointing for me since mid 2014, I am down overall since then. I just got 200 silver shillings from the UK and I also got the lunar tiger kilo and more monkeys. Will do a vid next few weeks. I think I want to pay off one of my mortgages this year, will probably buy much less PMs.
+iamgogi nice man! Look forward to seeing the vid. I'm selling one of my rentals right now. Should make a big chunk of change on it.
+StackMaster G Nice! I was thinking of selling two rentals, but could not find anything better to buy...and I do not want that money in the market or PMs. How is your stock portfolio? Hopefully less crappy than mine!
+iamgogi I'm way down on oil stocks. Will take years for those to come back.
Any idea per oz what a gateway should sell for larger size
1st! Wow what a haul!!
+SilverSekeer1 Thanks SS1. It's been good lately. I need to watch your most recent two videos. I'm behind.
+StackMaster G Lol. No worries your staying so busy G. Beautiful vintage bars. Your stack if amazing. Thanks for sharing that monster haul!!
+SilverSekeer1 I appreciate the nice words buddy
Hey Stackmaster G, I got a question for you. I was at my LCS today and he had a silver bar which caught my eye. It was a vintage stubby thick bar and all it had on it was a stamp of a S with a crown above it and 999 stamped on it. It didn't have anything like weight stamped on it. It weighed 4.8 troy oz. So I asked him what company it was and he said "Silver Mat Co". So my question is if it is worth picking up for a couple of bucks per oz over spot. My intuition says yes, but I would like to know what you think. I can't find anything about it on the web. Thanks for your reply
Yep. It's an old Silvermat. They generally fetch 120-125. I'd pay 100 all day. Sounds like you can get it for 10 over. That's a steal man. Great find.
That is some very serious volume! Erm, wow. Are you super rich or are you preparing for a massive crash? Or both.
+nicg1883 neither and both, sort of...lol
When our economy crashes do you actually think people are going to care about the rarity or numismatic value of those coins or bars. NOT.
And my friend, if you pay a hefty premium for the coins, do some calculations to see just how high Silver will have to go before you actually start to see a profit worth of your collection. It has been known for some time now that precious metals purchases are not an investment perse, but a hedge against inflation which by the way is supposed to hit the ceiling in July.
I always advise people to purchase 10 ounce bars sealed from the factory in plastic, or one ounce gold bars also sealed in plastic. That way buyers know there has been no fudging or funny business going on with their proposed purchase.
I do appreciate your concern. I have tons of bullion for that type of event that I highly doubt will occur anytime soon. I have lots of generic gold and silver at this point as a hedge. I won't need to part with vintage pieces and have no intention of selling those. I'm debt free with significant cash and real estate assets. If a crash occurs, I'll be using my cash to buy stocks and real estate at a very significant discount. PMs are like 7 percent of my portfolio.
I sure missed your channel while I was gone. 14 min? holly shit. lol
Nice bars, do you ever sell or trade them?
+Silver Bear Hey SB, I do have a few select clients that buy from me when I get doubles that I want to part with and do trade regularly with a handful of subscribers. Hope all is well with you.
will you sell me that bar that looks like gold bars you where saying you might get rid of
What's the point of collecting junk silver?
David Sawyer Silsby who collects junk? Not me. I only keep about $1k face for silver weight. I have bought it close to spot price. I'm in the money on all of it 👍
I'm from England where do you get these bars and do they ship to England?
I buy all over, coin shows, dealers who I met through eBay, connections I have made on IG and YT. Some may ship to England. Don't really know that answer to that.
+StackMaster G ok thanks
Bullion by post is reliable for UK
You have a sickness my friend!!!
And there is no cure 😂😂😂
Wow, you had a great six weeks! So many great pickups! So awesome!
Thanks SS. Appreciate it. Have you scored any vintage bars lately? I know you have some P series EHs and some poured Academy's.
