I am/will be a novice at this. Haven’t a clue who to go to, what to expect, the questions to ask. PBman2 offered up some good context on silver. I just sold a house. How much would you advise I spend on both? I don’t trust banks and since gold will destroy the FED and I’m going to be flush with cash from my house sell, I’m ready to jump in. What’s the safest way to get it? I don’t trust P.O. Boxes either.

For silver coins I bought Canadian Maple Leafs from Monex, though that was quite a few years ago. Recently a bought silver bars from Scottsdale Mint. I tend to be more bullish on Silver than gold as I feel it's been more manipulated/suppressed than gold.
The Maple Leafs are .9999% pure compared to American Eagles at .999. Also the Eagles are substantially more expensive. If we're stacking silver do we care if there is an eagle or a maple leaf on the coin? I don't. Only care about the silver content.
Agree. Can you tell me how it gets delivered? This is my first time. A tad nervous
I think Monex if I recall was by UPS. Scottsdale Mint on the other hand kinda pissed me off as they shipped the bars via USPS. Both though I had to sign for. They don't just leave on your stoop.
