Don't Ruin Your Silver! Bullion Dealer Tips for Storing and Handling Silver

[@201sovereign]

I buy silver bullion bars and coins in small quantity purchases, never bought a monster box in my life. Glad my local bullion dealer gives out empty tubes, assay card cases and monster boxes for free, all I have to do is ask for it when I think I'm going to need it. Sometimes they're even brand new. My local bullion dealer loves it when his customers come and make small purchases often, rather than having a few customers who make large purchases once or twice a year. Storage is never a problem for his customers, I know of a guy who bought a 1 oz bar of gold every month from him and requested storage, as the guy wanted to keep his purchase a secret. The dealer put that guy's purchases in a case he marked with the guy's name on it, and kept the bars safe for him in his shop safe for free. I was lucky enough to be there when the guy came one day to collect his entire hoard, turns out him and his wife have been trying hard to get a child since they were married, and the hoard was to be a surprise gift for his wife for giving birth to a beautiful baby daughter. Everyone in the store congratulated him, tears of joy in his face. He left the store the happiest person I've ever seen. The dealer remarked to me it's for moments like these he goes the extra mile for his customers. And I wholeheartedly agree😊

[@sdrowlette]

I put all of mine in capsules, but I just started out collecting. I like pulling them out to look at them though!

[@wrigman]

My rounds are in flips, put in an a wood cigar box that is in my gun safe. It’s in my garage, lugged into the concrete slab with 4” X 1/2” bolts. Between the concrete and the safe, there is a 1/8” rubber Matt, cut to 1/4” over on all four sides. Because there are firearms stored in with the rounds, there is also a dehumidifier in the safe, rather than the bead sacks. Have stored like this for years, rounds look great.

[@Dave_9547]

You can put your silica jel granules in an oven at about 150-200 degrees for a couple of hours. If you buy the commercial silica packs that are for keeping safe interiors dry, the instructions for drying are right on the package. Most of those come with saturation indicators right on the packages that tell you when to dry them. If you keep your safe in the interior of the house it should stay fairly dry, depending on your climate.

[@powbambam7791]

But most safes are coated with high-humidity material themselves. So even with the safe in the house, the safe itself can still ruin your silver (I think). :/

[@dameanvil]

1:46 💍 Proper storage of silver is crucial as it can tarnish and tone, especially in humid environments. 3:23 🌡 Keeping silver in a cool, dry place is essential for preventing toning and deterioration. Silica gel packets can help absorb moisture. 4:38 🧤 When handling silver, wearing cotton gloves can prevent oil from fingers damaging the coins. However, be cautious of micro-scratches that gloves might cause. 6:32 🔄 While coin capsules can be useful for special coins that need extra protection, they are not necessary for general bullion storage. Keeping bullion in tubes or flips is sufficient. 7:49 🛡 Capsules are helpful when handling coins where keeping oils off the face is crucial. Otherwise, storing in a cool, dry place with desiccants should prevent toning.

[@dukenukemani07]

Hmm... I didn't know just putting the silica gel packets out in the sun during a hot summer day would recharge them. You learn something every day! Thanks for sharing!

[@TobaccoRowe1960]

I grew up with real silverware in the house. My Mom taught me to hate silver tarnish. But I like tarnish because I know I can just remove it. Best thing is, no matter what they say, tarnish reduces the bidding price, so I get great detail for cheap. I put a lot of study into why coin dealers don't want you to clean your silver and I would bet almost no one knows why.

[@MooseBme]

My observations have been: Retailers only really want the "shiniest, prettiest, most attractive and rare" pieces, for the highest, fastest premium re-sell price! Everything else is for weight (volume), cull. And... Because silver, is a "soft metal:" Cleaning silver can reduce the qualaty and quantity of the metal. Like plated "Silver" ware, or plated jewelry that has been worn down by use, cleaned incorrectly, or "over-cleaned." !(: I hope this makes sense, wasn't too long, off course and it helps ;)!

[@Nicolasdu5]

I think I would sacrifice one coin just to handle it as I wish, even in my pocket!! 😄

[@felsinferguson1125]

Yep - Got a 2022 silver Krug specifically for "messing with" - the rest of the stack stays in whatever it came in (tube/flip/etc) but that particular Krug sits on my mouse pad to be fondled, spun, flipped, or whatever happens to tickle my fancy. Numismatically speaking, I have little doubt that it's worth just above bupkis due to the fingerprints, scratches, tooth mark (faint, but there - I didn't actually think I could bite it hard enough to make a mark without breaking a tooth, but the proof is right there under the "E" in "FYNSILWER"), dings from being dropped, an embedded bit of grit from hitting the dirty concrete porch step when I missed the catch while flipping it, a couple of mangled reeds on the edge from the same, and so on. But regardless of whether it's pristine or fugly, at the end of the day there's one important fact about it that remains unchanged: it's an ounce of silver.

[@rjampiolo32]

Vacuum sealer works great for bars. I put 120 oz of 10 oz bars together and vacuum seal them.

Good info, thanks! I started stacking a couple of years ago and was never sure if I was storing my silver correctly.

My cousin is a shoe exec and has a crazy shoe collection, especially ones that were never released so well he decided to store a bunch of them at his parent's house in Florida, in the garage and oh boy that did not end well, the glue just delaminated and they were all ruined. A very expensive lesson.

[@michaeldobson107]

I agree with the advice on the Constitutional silver and the silver rounds, but I still keep my coins in the capsules. Best way to protect the face. Putting them in tubes only makes sense if you are hard core stacking. I have a fair bit, but nothing that would require a monster box filled with tubes. And since I still like to look at my coins without having to actually physically handle them, capsules work for me at this point.

[@THECRANKYONE]

Great auction last night. Loved the ripples and the hammered edge coins were beautiful. Only stacking for a few months now, and I have been trying to get the info on just this topic. Thanks, S.D.

[@DonnaCouture]

Just came across this video and I'll be storing my coings with the silica gel packs inside my plastic boxes and making sure my coins are in capsules. Thanks for this info.

[@stevehalverson790]

I have one sample of each type of 1 ounce coin that I own that I leave out to handle and hold. The balance I keep in tubes. I find myself picking up these coins several times a day. I know I’m hurting the value but it helps inspire me to buy more, that are never handled.

[@TheQuickSilver101]

I have desiccant that recharges in an outlet. It heats up and dries out then I stick it back in the safe. I tried the free packs you get with shoes and they almost always broke open eventually and left a million beads all over my safe so I decided to just buy one and be done with it. Thanks!

You could also buy some gun safe dehumidifier packets Hornady makes them and they're rechargeable kind of like this guy said by bringing your oven up to 300° and letting them stay in there for a couple minutes and then you can put them right back in your safe or wherever after they cool off and you can do that multiple times with them

[@felsinferguson1125]

As someone who lived there for a time, I can say with certainty that, at least in the northern parts of Florida, the hardness, iron, and sulphur levels in the ground water are insane. "straight from the tap" well water down there is unfit to drink (not "toxic", just "downright nasty tasting") and for many purposes, useless unless you don't care about the residue it leaves behind when it dries.Wash silver flatware in un-aerated/unsoftened well water, and you're going to be polishing for days trying to get rid of the tarnish/black. Can't see anything else happening with bullion.

[@deplorablewarrior7690]

I use rechargeable dehumidifiers in a safe in a room that is maintained between 65-68 degrees with little if any humidity at all. I only touch my silver (typically in flips) with cotton gloves over surgical type gloves. If they're in a capsule, I use cotton gloves alone.

[@powbambam7791]

Great video. Thanks! But most safes are coated with high-humidity material themselves and even the owner's manuals say so. Therefore, keeping them in the house instead of the shed may not be the solution here. You mention air-tight boxes, but they take lots of space away from each safe. Therefore I'd love another best-practices video where you could also discuss if safes themselves can maybe become an issue.

Good video, but IMO... IF you don't want your rounds to tone or get damaged, I think it's best to put them in capsules. Almost every time you touch them, you're going to get oil on them or possibly scratch them. The more you touch them or move them around, the higher the risk of damage. I don't capsulize my generic rounds, but I capsulize all my premium rounds or I put them in tubes. I've bought rounds and bars at auctions or traded with people and you'd be surprised how many rounds/coins I get that have been abused! Just my 2 cents.

[@Userhfdryjjgddf]

Pull out the drawer under stove. In the back on the sides you can store a couple hundred Oz. Got a shoe closet full of shoes. Could get a few tubes in some old shoes. A bookshelf is a great place as well. Can make a fake book and stack a bunch in there. Got a cabinet full of cups and never use the back ones. Can fit a tube under a tall plastic cup. Then in your safe put some silver and a few dollars cash. Never keep it all in your safe or the bulk of the silver or gold. But I'd also say after 1,000 Oz I'd look into some plat or gold.

[@Eli-qr9hc]

@@Userhfdryjjgddf Interesting idea about the bottom draw in the stove, I guess it doesn't tone from the small amount of heat? Yes, the bookshelves, cup cabinets are good. I also wonder about buying a chest freezer for the garage and hiding a few hundred oz's under some empty or semi filled with a medium substance on top of the silver in zip lock and then in a peas bag or other labeled food bags.

I used design machines that dry out compressed air using activated alumina or silica gel. The item needs to be sealed in an air-tight container with the silica gel pak to work properly. Placing a desiccant pac in an open environment defeats the purpose of protecting the item against moisture. Silica gel can abosrb 40% its weight in water vapor. If you have an 8 oz pack, it will hold 3.2 ozs of water. Desiccant packs can be dryed out using a microwave oven.

the difference in price of a pristine silver eagle and a "toned" silver eagle is like $5 (maybe $10 if the toning is especially ugly). How much effort & cost in supplies do you want to go through to retain that $5 in value? Most silver is bought and sold near spot prices, if something becomes so overwhelmingly ugly, it just gets scrapped and refined & made into something brand new. Only really see "cleaned" silver in the rare coins in the marketplace, like 1700's, 1800's silver coins.

Cool tip about rejuvenating silica gel! Thanks!

[@NSNorfolk]

I put my silver in Vaccum sealing bags along with an oxygen absorber and a packet of silica gel. If there is no oxygen in the sealer bad with the silver, it cannot tarnish. It's also cheap.

[@ScienceNotFaith]

One thing I never hear pundits talk about is the use of silver cloth to prevent tarnishing. First, let's be clear about terminology. Silver tarnishes. That can manifest in various ways (toned, blueing, blackening, etc) and is almost always due to sulfur and/or oxygen in the atmosphere. Silica packs dehumidify but don't get rid of the oxygen, sulfur, or moisture. It only traps moisture (water) in the container with the silver. What you want is to seal dry coins in a moisture-resistant container with something that will prevent oxidation. Dehumidifiers such as silica packs aren't sufficient for long-term storage. They will eventually reach their limit in how much moisture they will sequester. You need something that will chemically react with the oxygen and/or sulfur more easily than the silver. That's where silver cloth comes in. It's impregnated with either microscopic silver particles or an agent that is more reactive (oxidizes) than silver. So much like a Tin plate on the hull of a steel ship, the chemicals in the cloth prevent silver from tarnishing. The cloth with embedded silver must be wrapped around the silver being protected so that the water, O2, or sulfur has to go through the cloth first before reaching your silver object. I've used silver cloth for over 50 years in the storage of coins, bars, and medallions and none have tarnished in that time. I'd like to know if any of you know of this cloth and if you used it and what's your experience with it.

I incapsulate almost all of my silver. Im a coin guy, but I'll buy rounds at the right price and incase them too if they fit in a cheap air tite. I spend .30 to around 3.00 on the very high end, and those are for larger pieces like 10oz bars. Most capsules are around .50 on average. Its worth it to me because i can handle and enjoy my silver without damaging their value.
