Silver Investing Guide Welcomes You

If you are just starting out on your silver investments in 2024 or simply want to find out more about buying and selling silver, you will find useful information on this site.

Investing in silver isn't that difficult with the "right" information. My goal is to provide you with that information with a series of useful articles on various silver coins, silver bars and related topics.

I want you to benefit from my previous experience in selling silver and gold for one of the oldest and most reputable precious metals dealers in the U.S. Just keep in mind that only you can decide if investing in silver is right for you. I take no responsibility for whatever silver purchases you make.

Precious Metal Or Paper Weight?

And yet another disappointing year for silver prices! While its rich relative (gold) posted a rather nifty 13% gain in 2023, silver couldn't even scratch out a small gain. It closed at $23.78 for the year versus $23.98 year end 2022. I am cautiously optimistic for one reason only - GOLD. It appears gold is setting up for a nice run in 2024. If that proves true, silver could easily benefit from gold's strength - sort of a "me too". Then we could see some positive results in what has been an otherwise dismal lengthy stretch of time.

In the section below you will find information on a popular silver coin. There will be a different coin featured on an irregular basis and they will include common, relatively inexpensive coins as well as those enjoying a higher rarity and higher price. I hope it helps with your investment decisions.

The 1922 Peace Silver Dollar

1922 was first full year that Peace dollars were minted for circulation having first been struck in December of 1921. Introduced as a peace commemorative coin, they were to replace the popular Morgan silver dollar. Approximately 190,577,000 Peace silver dollars were minted during their 10 years of production (1921-1928 and 1934-1935).

Three U.S. Mints produced 84,275,000 Peace dollars bearing the 1922 date: Philadelphia topped the list with 51,737,000; San Francisco added 17,475,000; and Denver struck 15,063,000 dollars. 1922 is the most common date for Peace silver dollars. Despite what some shady dealers would have you believe they are not rare and do not have great value except in very special cases. You should be able to pick up a nice circulated Peace dollar (containing .7650 ounces of silver unless well worn) for about $30 and some uncirculated Peace dollars (containing .77344 ounces of silver) for not much more if you shop around.
