Everyone laughed at me when I bought this one ounce, .999 fine silver Three Stooges coin.

Well, who’s laughing now?

Hahahaha! No one is laughing now.

I bought my first silver back in the 80s during the Hunt Brothers fiasco. $38/oz. Through the 90s - 2020s, I kept buying at $8-12/oz. Eighty to one hundred bucks monthly over time adds up. I could never afford gold. But I can pan for it.

I just found one of those coins - mint, in case, mixed in with Christmas Ornaments (’Baby’s First, 1999’) at my Thrift Shop. I quietly paid the $2.99 they were asking for it. ;)

Today? Value is $71.85! Merry Christmas to ME! :)

(Yes, I regularly donate to that Thrift Shop and the attached Food Pantry...)
