"I recommend one ounce bars, rather than coins, but what do I know?"
On the one hand bars are cheaper than coins. On the other hand, many homeowners policies will only insure PM coins (not bars). That's assuming you want your insurer to know you have the PMs in exchange for insuring risk of loss now (yes, I'm aware of the boating accidents where guns, ammo, and PMs are tragically lost).

My thought on the one ounce bars is, that there is no concern about people's prejudice against certain government issued coins.
Some people might find it easier to trade in bars than in coins.
Bars will have no "face value" .
But again, what do I know ?

Coins are more recognizable for the layman, and easy to look up in an older newspaper,etc to set a value to it.The black market will quickly set a value to each. Canadian Maple Leaf, US Liberty, etc. $15+/- per coin isn’t bad.

They don’t insure them for the metal value.
