I'm waiting for @Servant King to exchange all of his precious metals for Bitcoin!

Then I'll know for certain hell has finally frozen over.
That's the easy part. The tough part is figuring out how to extract this silver band from my Peterson and replace it with a Bitcoin band.

Got mine at just under 10X face😉
That's a pretty sweet score. Used to have some pretty hefty premiums back when it was still in the 20s per oz.

Funny, I've managed to get one of each just in regular change while out and about! I knew immediately, because they sound different when they make contact with other coins. Said thank you to the cashier (and really meant it too!), turned it tails-up, and boom, 1958 silver quarter. I've got my eye on Roosevelt-era dimes next, only have the Mercury head ones.

Just hit $44/oz. today!

My luckiest day at the bank! I was doing business and noticed in the tellers change tray some quarters with silver edges. I asked to see one, sure enough pre 65. I asked if I could buy them she said sure, how many would you like? I said all of them! Got about a whole roll for face😁

Now I am waiting to leave for the airport because my boss messaged me at 2:45 asking if I could be in east Arkansas tomorrow at noon :ROFLMAO:
Turns out, I can!

Dude...$4053 and $49.53 at the moment...holy moly.
Tell me about it! Sure, there will be pullbacks here and there, especially as silver approaches its record high, but these days, the pullbacks are short and sweet, and they just shoot right back up again. A couple years ago or more, they used to go down for days at a time, and big drops too. With where gold is at, triple digit silver is a given, and rightly so; what else on earth can you get at a discount to its price in 1980?

What'll be even better is when Bitcoin starts dropping. Precipitously. I'm thinking of a number between -1 and 1... 🤔
