TOP 5 SILVER TO STACK IN 2025

[@cakensteak]

Buying is fun. Selling not so much.

[@andrewkolb6309]

I felt this

[@dukenukemani07]

amen to that

[@tonyroma1161]

Sell when it hits 50 an ounce

[@dukenukemani07]

@@tonyroma1161Better hope that doesn’t happen too soon, or it would mean then entire economy is fucked and then we’d have no choice but to sell.

[@morganroundscoins]

Easy to buy, hard to sell!

[@justacinnamonbun8658]

I never really liked 90% until I actually sat down at my LCS recently, and he had bags and bags of this stuff and he's trying to get rid of it at spot price, and I sat there with a tray of Ben Franklins in front of me and I had an "a ha" moment. That we haven't minted half dollars since I guess the JFK half dollar so that was unique and also, as time goes on there will be less and less of 90% left. I heard some coin shops selling their 90% off to the refineries and they're starting to melt some of this stuff down. All that to say I think I'd be a fool not to buy 90% at spot price given the chance.

[@morganroundscoins]

Great tips for stacking in the new year!! 90% is my favorite, great to see it at #1!

[@JABoyle3875]

Right now 90% silver is the only silver I am stacking. Couple weeks ago I paid $12 each for half dollars that had $11.98 of silver in them. They don’t make it anymore, and the premiums go out of control again I can really clean up .

[@SherylOrcutt-ud9sj]

I like it all

[@silversleuth007]

Silver American Eagles have been my go-to for the past 27 years, but I understand the order you placed your top five. Can't disagree with anything you said. I have a little bit of all in the top five, but a lot of Eagles. They are my favorite for gold, too. Good talk. TY.

[@SirAlford]

Great Minds Think Alike My Friend!

[@maxbt8316]

90% is a must 👍

[@cakensteak]

Try selling it.

[@SW-rb9cr]

Waiting on the website also. For me, just being able to stack silver and a little gold is a good thing. Your top 5 is good. They are all my top 5.

[@redrider8036]

Love it! I’m with you on the 90%!

[@nyevegas4015]

American Silver Eagles and junk silver would be my 1 & 2. I specifically like Mercury Dimes.

[@happymood888]

Silver eagles used to be my number one now my number one is the silver Libertad

[@LarryBird2233]

Can’t wait for the website!

[@SirAlford]

I tend to buy which will retain the most value, receive the least haircut if needing to sell and if held long enough will parlay into collector status premium....ASE! My top 3 are #1 ASE 2# Vintage rounds (Prospector/Norfed) and #3 90% . I always listen when "On The Level" Josh talks as he has earned my attention.

[@rjsledz]

I just want to say thank you the way you explain things you are such a kind human being and I really want to thank you for being the most kindest and I don't want to say anything against the silver seeker cuz I like him too but I think you are the kindest the most gentlest human being on KZbin with regards to coins and I am most grateful and I want to thank you for your kindness and I wish that I had a dealer like you around I really do. I live in Illinois. I'm going to definitely consider going for the 90% this year more because I like to take your advice and I really value it but I do have to tell you I do go for the shiny rounds and I do go for the bars the most LOL..

[@rudeawakening3833]

I appreciate your list ; truthfully mine is a little different . 1.) Royal Canadian Maple Leafs 2.) American Silver Eagles 3.) 1964 Kennedy half dollars 4.) Constitutional silver/pre-65 5.) All 1971-1976 Eisenhower with “S” mint aka - blue Ike’s , brown Ike’s , and red Ike’s . ( I have an addiction to 1964 US Mint Prof sets ! ) 😭

[@frmich7766]

I think your list is spot on! Great choices.

[@MikeGold22122]

I agree with your ranking. I’m personally focused on 1, 2, and 4

[@geralddraper4491]

Kull ASE backdated #1 , ASE , then Maples & 10 oz RCM Bars , constitutional DIMES & then Buffalo bullion . Fun stuff comes after the FOUNDATION is laid out .

[@SamWoodOutdoors]

Well I will be getting a lot of cheeseburgers worth of 90% when I get back. I hit a few milestones in the past month for my stack so it’s back to shopping the value again

[@milessakauye8819]

Hi Josh, Seems like premiums right now for 90% seems to be pretty low even here. Thanks for the vlog!

[@tonyl7953]

I'll take all those grubby half dollars and dirty dimes !! my stack is mostly # 2s and starting a bit of #1s NAILED IT!

[@idealmetal6027]

Love all of it, Josh.

[@steveabmeyer4209]

1. Silver Eagles 2. Silver rounds 3. 90% 4. 10 oz bars 5. Sovereign

[@happymood888]

No 1 Libertads

[@darrensoldan5972]

1oz Sunshine mint and Silvertowne are a favorite for sure rounds and bars! 90%US 80%CAD Eagles & Maples

[@patchrat1]

I have some 80% Canadian as well I think it’s often overlooked they have minted some very nice pieces over the years much like the 90% I like the history behind an old worn coin

[@MikeGold22122]

Will there be refreshments

[@maxwelldumstorff155]

I agree with this list. Also worth note that the heavier 90s are worth way more than the smaller ones bc the refiner will appreciate melting them more than an equal amount of silver in dimes.

[@patchrat1]

My number one is 90% love the old coins and the history behind them my second item in my stack is 10 ounce bars have a few one ounce rounds/coins as well and I have some pre 33 gold to round out my stack a little bit at a time as I can dollar cost averaging is the way to go think in terms of ounces rather then dollars and watch your stack grow it’s a personal bank account there if you need it or to pass down Thanks for your perspective I have you on my radar for a visit/ road trip this summer

[@dave-yg8nd]

Maples are my top dog!

[@Disinfective_Vibes]

You missed the glorious sovereign 10 oz silver bar and/or coins man. The amazing Canadian Royal mint 10 oz bar, the British Royal mint 10 oz bar and finally the illustrious British Royal mint 10 oz silver bar coin of Saint Helena sovereign coin bar. I think those could beat your second and third ranking hands down.

[@turbostacking]

well done sir!😃

[@SherylOrcutt-ud9sj]

Good evening from Dickinson

[@tonybeef1142]

90% is hard to get here in Canuckistan. If you can,you have to pay tax on it. Maples is the way to go here.Or go for weight in my opinion.

[@DennyRasmus]

I agree with your rankings. I wonder what the ranking would have been 4 years ago.

[@TheQuickSilver101]

Silver Eagles are a good option but with other coins at such low premiums it's far more difficult to pick an Eagle over a different sovereign coin. Coin silver is an excellent option and a good choice for number one. I suspect that the best choices as silver rises in value will be one ounce and below. Thanks, Josh!

[@GhostDiZ]

Keep going bro I love these episodes let me know the lowest premiums

[@minotcoinbullion]

Will do

[@ronaldfauver1469]

To keep from getting bored i like it all too.😂

[@jacktregellas4355]

Sunshine mint provides planchets for the US mint silver eagles. They are making nice sunshine minting rounds with great security. now look out for the sunshine MINEING silver rounds, they are becoming more collectable and are not made anymore. Thanks Josh.

[@peermetals]

Nice educational video. Good quality video. Keep it up!

[@minotcoinbullion]

Thank you very much!

[@readytorv5327]

great list just started with buffalo rounds

[@minotcoinbullion]

Nice 👍

[@brandondockter4272]

Although I didn’t do it today…..my goal for 2025 is to walk out of your shop with some 90% when I stop in. I had the same feelings as you for many years about it as well, didn’t pay attention to it and went for the shiny 1 oz coins

[@tomvayne7578]

I prefer maples and britanas

[@pam3906]

Thank you

[@mandoman3042]

I agree with your top 5 silver choices, it's definitely my choice as well each has a plus, and minus verses collectable coins like Morgan or Peace dollars etc... I also like foreign coins, but I don't stack them usually I just find some of the designs unique, and fascinating.

[@ArgentAppeal]

I think your list was spot on for myself as well! Good luck on the launch of your website! Curious if the store will be open to online sales with debit cards?

[@kevinschick8618]

Hope to make it to your shop someday when visiting my homeland.

[@Jimdidit]

Hi As a coin dealer, which fractional gold coin is preferred for ease of liquidity or trading ? 1/10-1/4-1/2 - especially age over gold maples? TIA

[@jamysmith7891]

I feed all my gross constitutional into my grit free rock tumbler with water, sawdust and zote soap for 6-8hrs Just cleans that non-nusmatic junk nice, lot of black caked coins come out looking fine, sticky gross war nickels feel good

[@davidf3883]

I would have had eagles #3. The premiums on eagles are under $3.00 so they are a great deal. Those premiums will shoot up again with any major economic or war event. Buy eagles now! 10 oz bars get killed when you sell them at the LCS.

[@SirAlford]

Correct, you will receive a serious haircut selling back 10oz bars....case in point last summer I sold a few 10 oz RCM bars to my LCS and was paid $1,80 back of spot per oz.

[@rjsledz]

Can you talk more about slabbed 1 oz coins "graded"? I love Kennedy halves to collect. I have prolly 200 oz individual.

[@williamthompson252]

Wish I lived in Minot. Buy back prices at the coin shop I frequent are well back of spot, alas -- on everything, including BU Silver Eagles.

[@gruntlife0341]

Im pretty well on board with the entire list.

[@bobblenuts]

Good list, however I would move 10oz bar up to #1 or maybe #2. 😊

[@RichBshine1972]

Great video what are your thoughts on mintid encrypted silver

[@minotcoinbullion]

Silver is silver to me. I don’t think it’s better than other silver on the market

[@RichBshine1972]

​@minotcoinbullion I agree, but I like the fact you can scan the chip on the silver and see if it is genuine or not

[@Mrburns3960]

I buy 90% every month from my LCS...He knows right off the bat...I get 5..5 and 5...dimes, quarters, and halfs..meaning $5 face for each...then I look for bulk oz silver or maybe gold. Depends on my allowance for the month. Everyone has their own plan. Just do what you can when stacking.

[@Timmerd888]

I love my Scottsdale stackers. 😊

[@mfb3042]

With the financial system breaking down coin of the realm will be easiest to barter and sell.

[@devonror2787]

Impaired Eagles are my favorite to stack.

[@wi.dave3812]

Your top five looks like my top five, also looking at my stack It appears as though I’m a 10 ounce bar hoarder 😂🇺🇸

[@jeffkeller9009]

Only problem with 90% is the premiums can be all over the place, Buying it and selling it.

[@clashwithneo]

What are you selling 90% for right now?

[@bmiller22765]

You can never go wrong with 90% silver.

[@chuckmiles56]

The ten ounce bars don’t usually break your foot when you drop them.

[@mrsnicks6105]

I have fractional silver (1/10, 1/4, 1/2) and constitutional silver (90%) 1 oz, 5oz 10oz bars and rounds. Poured silver statues/figures and Premium/Box/COA silver (horrible idea trying to liquidate now). Stack what you like and can afford, just stay away from slabbed/graded and premium/coa silver.

[@frum1958]

Nice!

[@2manyhobbies971]

I agree all except eagles. They’re my #2. I know…. I’m hard headed but I just prefer them.

[@johnsanford3596]

For 2025, my priorities are 21 ASEs, a Kilo bar, a few 10oz bars, a few Anglosphere Sovereign coins.

[@rjam950]

I am curious if you prefer a mixed bag of dimes, quarters, half dollars, dollars. Or prefer all dimes, all quarters, all halves, etc? Is it better to mix it up or concentrate on one denomination?

[@TXMusicDrummer]

90% KHD and CSM are my favorites on this list. Hoping that pending tariffs don't place CSM out of reach. What they should do is make improvements on ASE, specifically on anti milk spotting and enhanced security. Hard for me to justify spending that much more on something that is prone to milk spotting; thus, reducing resale value.

[@NumismaticStacker-z8x]

You going to Fargo coin show?

[@minotcoinbullion]

Just saw this now. No I won’t be there. I’ll be on a vacation out of town at that time

[@RobinPage-c5k]

Number 2: 10 oz Royal Canadian Silver Number 1: 1 oz Royal Canadian Maples (and I'm an American) Four 9's

[@ScottOuellette-p1d]

ASE'S and 10 oz. Bars are my thing.

[@lepton31415]

I would have put silver eagles and 90% in #1 and #2 because many states drafting legal tender laws specify US govt minted coins only.

[@Yankeepride03]

I don’t think you can go wrong with any of those choices of silver to stack !!!

[@BLUE_COLLAR_STACKER]

Can’t lose with 90% 👍🏻👊🏻😎

[@VegasStacker702]

Can't lose with morgans

[@b-man1232]

I honestly don't know how some coin dealer's can survive financially? The margins are so razor thin. If a Dealer sells 10 Eagles (as an example)...actual profit might only be a very minimal amount? Obviously, working the "High volume" game is critical??

[@minotcoinbullion]

Yes. Volume is critical

[@byteme0000]

90% is a bargain right now. Buy now while you can! It was just a short time ago that premiums for 90% were crazy high.

[@dennismast3591]

What's your take regarding "modern date" 90% silver coins? I have recently seen tubes of modern proof silver quarters at very, very reasonable prices, less than pre-65 coins. What's up with that?

[@PremierCoinsandBullion]

Love 90% and 1 ounce. One day ill grab 5 and 10 ouncers

[@PremierCoinsandBullion]

I'm never buying high premium bullion unless I get it at generic prices though!

[@milessakauye8819]

#1 is 90%

[@albing1397]

I can layout less cash at a time buying 90%. Affordable

[@Fireinahorn]

Give us a SHTF math class for Dummies.

[@MolMik2832]

WEBSITE👀👀👀

Best to stick w/ the silver rounds (cheap cost & you are getting what you pay for). ASE's overpriced for a sloppily made coin (off centered using modern computerized minting equipment causing "finning" -see Salivate Metals). ASE's have "milk spots" and the poorest excuse for a security feature. The Canadian Maple Leaf seems to be the only sovereign coin that has overcome these problems and at a cheaper price. "Junk Silver" has really fallen from about where it was 6-8 years ago. Now we are overpaying (23x) for an underweight product. The last roll of Walker Halves (after doing the math) should have yielded 7.15 ozt. Mine came out to 6.99 ozt. This has happened to Merc & Roosey dimes too. I think all of the "correct weight" junk silver has been socked away in Guardhouse boxes in serious collectors permanent stack. You know that when silver gets up into the $40, $45 and $50 range, LCS, pawn shops and online dealers will start weighing your rolls of junk and only paying for the silver that's actually there (like in 1980).

[@Luksherie]

[@coltharwood494]

I stack all of those plus 1 ounce bars.

[@craigphelps704]

Why are Mexican libertads so sought after?

[@minotcoinbullion]

Low mintage drives the demand and higher premiums

[@andrewkolb6309]

I won't collect any Type two eagles I will only buy back dates only!

[@mikewhitaker2306]

America silver eagles are the same price as other sovereign coins right now

[@minotcoinbullion]

Not even close on the wholesale markets. Eagles are more expensive

[@BiggyBollocks]

The one thing about 90% that you might be omitting is that the new generation overwhelmingly hates it due to it being so aesthetically unappealing. We’re already seeing coin shops sell it at melt value and buying it back way under that, as they simply can’t unload the 90%. I really think that will continue to increase as demographics change and it’s viewed as your grandfather’s ugly junk coins, thus exacerbating how little you’ll be able to sell it back for. The buy to sell spread on Eagles and sovereigns is already better than 90% from what I see, and I think this will only widen. Time will tell…

[@gregorymartinez8660]

90/

[@EricBynog-zd4rd]

Be careful buying silver rite now don’t let the pump and dump guys get to you and buy the stuff that is desirable don’t buy rounds so many dealers are not even buying them rite now if they will it’s way below spot so be careful they won’t tell you this there is silver running out there ears rite now but for years and years we have been told they are using more then can be mined BS

[@duckhunter8387]

100%

[@pam3906]

10 Oz. Hmmmm

[@aaronwade1940]

Not a fan of rounds.

[@MikhailIhzboldin]

I'm unlikely to buy 90% silver, its only future is to be melted down. Accordingly, the selling price.

[@Abraham.Lincoln22]

Eagles are a waste.

[@papabearingeorgia]

Awesome video. Your top 5 is my top 5. As of right now because of the little to no premium, I’m stacking nothing but 90% after seeing this video, now I have to buy more lol 🪙🪙
