Silvertowne Silver Bars
December 27, 2008 by Grams · Leave a Comment
SilverTowne is a coin dealership and bullion mint founded in 1949 in Winchester, Indiana by Leon Hendrickson that has an excellent reputation for high quality silver bars. Silvertowne 1 oz and 10 oz silver bars in particular are sought after by bullion investors.
After returning from WW2 service Hendrickson eventually became a professional numismatist, opening a shop above his restaurant with his wife and son as the initial employees. As the business grew, Hendrickson moved into his home—out of which he sold over $400 million in merchandise in 1980.
In 1982 Hendrickson built SilverTowne’s current premises, which features a coin shop, along with jewelry and collectibles sections, and a custom mint. The firm’s 100 employees include three generations of family members, and their mail-order business ships out 800 to 1,000 packages per day.
Hendrickson’s philosophy of treating people like he would want to be treated, being fair and giving a good price has resulted in Silvertowne becoming one of America's largest and most respected rare coin and precious metals dealers.
The 1 oz silver ingots are of the pressed type with a high quality finish that is protected by being encased in plastic after they are minted. Typically they come in sheets of ten 1 oz bars but can be separated if necessary to form individual 1 oz bars.
The 10 Troy oz .999 Fine Silver Bar From Silvertowne Mint is a beautifully finished bar that could even be described as a work of art, the workmanship is of such a high standard. Likewise the Silvertowne 10 oz silver bars are also protected by a plastic case that is factory sealed for protection.
Because of Silvertownes reputation for quality, Silvertowne silver bars are very sought after and easy to trade both in the offline market and online. A Silvertowne silver bar makes a great investment, and an attractive one at that!

The Spanish dollar (also known as the piece of eight, the real de a ocho, or the eight-real coin) is a silver coin, worth eight reales, that was minted in the Spanish Empire after a Spanish currency reform in 1497. It was legal tender in the United States until an Act of the United States Congress discontinued the practice in 1857. Because it was widely used in Europe, the Americas, and the Far East, it became the first world currency by the late 18th century. Many existing currencies, such as the Canadian dollar, United States dollar, and the Chinese yuan, as well as currencies in Latin America and the Philippine peso, were initially based on the Spanish dollar and other 8-reales coins.
An eight-real coin nominally contained 0.821791 troy ounce (25.560 grams) fine silver.
Millions of Spanish dollars were minted over the course of several centuries. They were among the most widely circulating coins of the colonial period in the Americas, and were still in use in North America and in South-East Asia in the 19th century. They had a value of one dollar when circulating in the United States.

Why the Dollar is Not Money
December 12, 2008 by Grams · Leave a Comment
Few people realize that the dollar is not money and so they leave themselves open to be robbed. The dollar is a fraud that has been foisted on an unsuspecting public by governments inflating the money supply. Let me explain.
Real money has certain desirable features that allow it to function in commerce. These required features or criteria were developed over centuries of experience in trade. Time tested features of true money include -
1. It must be a medium of exchange. In other words it must be available in sufficient quantity, be easily tradable, and have only a small difference in price between buying and selling. The money should be easy to transport - which is facilitated if it has a high value to weight ratio. In some of these respects the dollar qualifies as a medium of exchange, but read on.
2. It needs to be a unit of account. The money should be capable of being divided into smaller units without damaging its value. In the case of precious metals like gold, silver, and platinum, they can be traded as bars or melted down and formed into much smaller units like coins, and if required, melted down into bars again. This is why olden day barter goods like wheat or animals are not suitable as money.
3. It must also be fungible. This means that any one unit should be identical to another of the same unit. For example two coins of the same unit should be identical in size, weight, and metallic content.
4. It helps if money is a fixed weight or measure so that it is easy to count. Paper notes for example have different face values but weigh the same, making them a poor measure.
5. Most importantly, money should be a store of value. After all, if you exchange goods or property for money you want something of equivalent value in exchange. Paper money is just pieces of paper with pictures on it and has no intrinsic worth, yet every day people exchange worthless pieces of paper for physical goods. This state of affairs has only existed in the last century and will not last much longer.
6. The value must be stable and not subject to major fluctuations, and it must be real and genuine, not an artificially created value, as with paper money.
7. In addition it should be difficult to counterfeit while still being easy to recognize. Once again paper money fails this test.
Centuries, and indeed millenia, have resulted in two metals in particular assuming a leading role as money. These metals are gold and silver, with copper filling a minor role. Gold and Silver meet all the requirements listed above.
When gold and silver were used as money, inflation was vitually unknown. Inflation is associated with the fiat money (paper money) system that is now in place across the world. Governments print paper money (or the electronic equivalent) in steadily increasing amounts which inflates the money supply. This increased money supply pushes up the prices of the fixed amount of goods and services that are available. This is what causes inflation. Inflation is a thief which steals your wealth because the value of your cash is continually decreasing. A dollar today will only buy 5% of what a dollar could buy back in the 1920's when the U.S. and most countries were still on a gold based monetary system.
One way to preserve wealth in inflationary times is to purchase items which are stores of value. Anything which cannot be produced in ever increasing amounts qualifies, but only gold and silver which are limited in supply and difficult to obtain are qualified to also act as money. Gold bullion and silver bullion, along with gold coins and silver coins are becoming increasingly scarce as investors seek to preserve their wealth in these inflationary times. Supply is diminishing while demand is increasing. Check out the prices and availability online and buy bullion while you still can. The dollar is about to be consigned to the scrap heap of history, to be replaced by real money.

Silver Bullion 10 oz Bars For Sale Online
December 11, 2008 by Grams · Leave a Comment
Silver Bullion 10 oz bars are popular with silver investors because they are small and portable while being a great store of monetary value. They fall in between the popular silver coins and rounds and the 100 oz bars while having some of the advantages of both. While a 100 oz silver bullion bar is a great store of monetary value it's very difficult to divide into smaller units that could be used for money. Coins are the obvious solution but for larger transactions the silver bullion 10 oz bars make a better choice.
Buying silver bars has proven to be a great investment for investors in recent years despite some heavy fluctuations in silver prices. When silver prices are down is a great time to buy as demand is increasing and there is a greater than average chance that the price is going to increase significantly in the future due to supply and demand problems. This makes it a good time to buy silver bullion 10 oz bars, especially since they are very affordable compared to the larger bar sizes. The lower unit price makes it easy to gradually accumulate and store your own personal cache of silver as a hedge against inflation and future instability in the financial system.
It goes without saying that it is much more affordable to purchase silver bullion than gold bullion. Both are excellent investment vehicles but for the small investor with limited funds silver is a cheap way to invest in precious metals. Many argue that the potential price increase for silver is likely to be greater than that of gold in percentage terms. In other words, if you invested the same amount of money in silver and gold, there is a strong possibilty that the increase in value of your silver will be greater than that of the gold as the price differential returns to historical ratios.
Silver is actually rarer than gold. This is because most of the gold that has been mined throughout history still exists in one form or another and is available for sale if the owner so chooses. Silver however has been extensively used for industrial purposes diminishing the world-wide supply. The amount of silver in the world today is a lot less than it was last century when it was still used as money in many parts of the world.
There are many who believe that silver is once again going to be used as money in order to overcome the deficiencies in the fiat (paper) money system we have in place throughout the world at present. If this does eventuate there will be massive increases in the price of precious metals, especially silver and gold bullion in any form. Now is the time to invest in silver bullion 10 oz bars and other forms of silver and gold bullion including junk silver, as it may not be possible to do so in the future, or if it is possible, the purchase price will be much higher.

Junk Silver
December 6, 2008 by Grams · Leave a Comment
Junk silver is an informal term used in the United States and Canada for any silver coin which is in only fair condition and has no collectible value above the bullion value of the silver it contains. Such coins are popular amongst those seeking to invest in silver, particularly in small amounts. The word "junk" refers only to the value of the coins as a numismatic collectible and not to the actual condition of the coins; junk silver is not necessarily scrap silver.
Update: David Morgan of silver-investor.com has wriiten an excellent article on junk silver.
The most commonly collected U.S. junk silver pieces are Mercury and Roosevelt dimes, Washington quarters, and Franklin and Kennedy half dollars, minted in or before 1964. These coins have a 90% silver composition ("coin silver"), and when minted contained 0.7234 troy ounces of silver per dollar of face value. In practice, the content is usually assumed to be 0.715 ounces because of wear. Less common as junk silver are Kennedy half dollars from 1965 to 1970, which contained 40% silver. Peace Dollars may also be collected for their silver value, but are also less common.
Canadian dimes and quarters contained 80% silver (0.600 troy ounces per dollar of face value) until 1966. In 1967, they were minted in both 80% and 50% varieties. In 1968 they either contained 50% silver, or none at all (Cupro-Nickel). Dollars and half dollars were minted in 80% silver until 1967.
Junk silver coins may be a desirable method of investing in silver for several reasons:
1. Junk silver can often be purchased for little or no premium over the spot price of silver, particularly during periods of economic stability.
2. Junk U.S. and Canadian coins remain legal tender, and will always be worth at least their face value, regardless of the price of silver.
3. Though not as common as they once were, junk silver coins are still somewhat well-known, and may be less likely to have their value disputed than silver bars or rounds.
Junk silver coins can be easily spent or traded in small amounts; as of March 2008, the silver in a U.S. silver dime was worth less than US$1.50. In contrast, silver bullion coins and bars are rarely smaller than one ounce, while gold and other precious metals are highly valued in even minuscule amounts.
For some of these reasons, junk silver is popular among survivalists. In the event of a crisis or catastrophe during which traditional currency collapses, it is speculated that silver coins could provide a viable alternative, temporarily or indefinitely, while fiat currency, which is not back by precious metals or other commodities, has no inherent value and can be subject to extreme inflation, even hyperinflation, similar to Weimar Germany and, more recently, Zimbabwe.
Proponents of junk silver and other precious metals adhere to the principle that while fiat currencies have historically always been subject to hyperinflation, precious metals will always have inherent value and can act as a medium of financial exchange when fiat instruments of payment are obsolete.
American Silver Eagle Silver Bullion Coin
December 6, 2008 by Grams · Leave a Comment
The American Silver Eagle is the official silver bullion coin of the United States. It was first released by the United States Mint on November 24, 1986. It is struck only in the 1 troy oz denomination which has a nominal face value of one dollar and is guaranteed to contain one troy ounce of 99.9% pure silver. It is authorized by the United States Congress and its weight and content is certified by the United States Mint. The American Silver Eagle bullion coin may be used to fund Individual Retirement Account (IRA) investments. The United States Mint also produces a proof version for coin collectors. The Silver Eagle has been produced at three mints. The Philadelphia mint issued Silver Eagles carry a "P" mintmark. In the early years of the series, the San Francisco mint issued proofs and these bear an "S". More recent proofs are from the mint at West Point, New York have a "W" on the reverse.
Mintages, and thus prices, of uncirculated and proof specimens have varied widely, and the potential collector is advised to check a standard reference book before buying them. Generally the business strikes have minted in the millions, while the proofs were issued in the hundreds of thousands. Thus, most dates are not particularly expensive at around $23 each, although some of the early 1990s proofs sell for over $100 (1993 for example). Also, the special 1995W issue (30,125 sold) is worth several thousand dollars. The 2006 Silver Eagle 20th Anniversary boxed set, with uncirculated, proof, and the previously-unreleased reverse proof pieces, had a maximum mintage of 250,000 and quickly sold out from the Mint at a catalog price of $100. As of January 2008 it was selling for over $350.

Austrian Philharmonic Silver Coin
The Austrian silver philharmonic coin is identical in design to the gold philharmonic coin.
It is used as an investment product (bullion coin), although it inevitably ends up in private collections.
A design of musical instruments representing the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra, as well as the text Wiener Philharmoniker ("Vienna Philharmonic"), can be seen on the reverse of the coin.
The subject of the obverse is the great organ in the Golden Hall in Vienna's Musikverein, the concert hall of the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra. The face value in euros, the weight, alloy purity and year of issue are also inscribed on this side of the coin.
The Austrian silver philharmonic coin was first minted in silver in February 2008. The design of the silver coin is identical to that of the gold coin, except for its face value of 1.50 euro.

First produced in February 2008, the Vienna Philharmonic silver coin is a one troy ounce legal tender coin struck in pure .999 fine silver by the Austrian Mint. The 2008 issue is the first so far but it's popularity guarantees that it won't be the last. It only comes in one troy ounce at present but don't be surprised if future issues introduce smaller sizes as is common with other Mints around the world.
An attractive design featuring musical instruments representing the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra, as well as the text Wiener Philharmoniker ("Vienna Philharmonic"), can be seen on the reverse of the coin. The subject of the obverse is the great organ in the Golden Hall in Vienna's Musikverein, the concert hall of the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra. The face value in euros, the weight, and year of issue are also inscribed on this side of the coin.
Since February 2008 Vienna Silver Philharmonics have been produced by the 800-year old Austrian Mint in Vienna. The design of the silver coin is identical to that of the gold coin, except for its face value of 1.50 euro. Vienna Philharmonic silver coins can be purchased in boxes of 500, rolls of 20 coins, and individually.
Vienna Philharmonic Silver Coins make a beautiful addition to any investment portfolio and a great gift or keepsake for loved ones.
