Why the American Silver Eagle?

When you go to most precious metals dealer sites, you are faced with an overwhelming number of different products to buy.  If you don't know what to buy, it can be very confusing.  So what's the best form of metal to buy?  Well…it depends.  It depends on how much money you have to invest, what your reasons are for investing, where you plan to store the metals you buy, etc.  For this report, I am going to talk about options for the average investor.

You can buy bars of silver and gold in many different sizes. These typically carry a lower premium than coins due to there being less labor and production cost to produce them.  Here is a key point to keep in mind.  If you ever think you may need to use your silver or gold as a means of exchange, trade or barter…. it's much, much easier to use coins instead of giant 100 ounce bars, for example.  I mean, big bars of metal are just not that practical to use or carry around.  

Plus… when selling them, some buyers will need to have them inspected to be sure they have not been hollowed out and filled with filler metals.   Another benefit to coins is that you can sell smaller quantities at a time… along and along… instead of having to sell a huge bar all at one time.

Of course you can buy the bags of 90% or 40% silver US coins.  For the most part, these are pre 1965 US coins that were made up of 90% or 40% actual silver.  You can typically buy $1,000 face value bags of these coins.  The pros are; they are easy to use as barter coinage.  You may remember during the gasoline shortage when Jimmy Carter was in office, some gas station owners were gladly taking these in trade for gas because silver prices were soaring at that time.  

For the cons, these bags are large, heavy, bulky and take up a lot of space.  Plus, when you go to sell, they won't get near as big of an investment bang when silver soars …because they will have to be melted down and refined to separate the silver from the coins.  Many times this silver will sell at a significant discount because of that.  My suggestion is to forget about these bags and always buy 0.999 investment grade fine silver.

For me, I believe the single best, easiest, simplest and most practical way to invest in silver…is with 1 ounce United State Silver Eagle Coins.  Here are the benefits to investing in these coins:

• • The Silver Eagle coin is the legal tender silver coin for the United States with a $1 face value, however, its intrinsic silver market value is far higher.
  • The Silver Eagle is an extremely liquid silver investment backed by the United States government. 
  • The Silver Eagle can be used in legal contracts based on their $1 face value, but they are traded according to the market rate for silver.
  • The Silver Eagle has a beautiful design recognized and highly tradable all over the world.
  • The Silver Eagle garners the highest bid prices for silver bullion in North America.
  • The Silver Eagle in the United States is the most recognized and trusted silver investment vehicle on the market.
  • The Silver Eagle is .999 fine silver and acceptable for your precious metal IRA.
  • The Silver Eagle has 1 oz fine silver stamped in English on the coin. 
  • US Silver Eagles are .999 fine silver bullion coins making them an excellent hedge against a currency crisis and a great option for emergency coinage
  • The Silver Eagle is exempt from IRS 1099B brokerage reporting which makes the American Silver Eagle one of the most private investments in the world. 

For me, it's a no-brainer.  Just stick with the Silver Eagles… don't try and get too fancy… and you can't go wrong.
