Nice! Where can I buy? Sorry if that's a dumb question, but I've never purchased silver or gold aside from jewelry lol.

Working to become a better version of myself through the grace of God. No DMs, please.
It's a good question! And I got started buying coins and rounds about five months ago. There are lots of online retailers, like JM Bullion, APMEX, and Money Metals. Hope that helps. 🙂

Great, thank you! Does buying silver dollars at the bank make much sense? I know the ratio of silver to copper has dropped sharply for decades. I'm guessing no, unless it's from the Kennedy era.
My pleasure! I don't know about buying currency at a bank, so maybe someone else could opine on that. I've bought some copper as well, since that's still very cheap in comparison to the other metals. If there's a brick-and-mortar metals store near you (And there's not 2 ft. of snow on the ground with more to come like there is by me, ugh!), you'd have it in your possession sooner and support a local business. Regardless, you have options!

Excellent advice, thank you! I live just north of Boston, so I'm about to get whacked today and tomorrow also. Godspeed! Haha :)
