    Default Silver or Cash???

    I have been propositioned with two options for a gun I'm getting rid of... 1) take $450 cash or 2) take 15 ounces of Silver. I have never really though about silver as a trade option before. So my question to everyone is this.... Which do I take? Is 15 ounces of silver gonna be worth the trade in 6 months or a year? Or is cash in hand a better decision?

    where can I even take silver if I want to cash it in/ trade it in and get its current market value? I've never had silver before so I have NO IDEA what I COULD do with it.

    I'm not really sure how to proceed!

    whaddaya think?

    15oz of what? bullion? minted coins? silver eagle? Silver eagle typically has 10% premium over market too.

    are you strapped for cash? if not, i would take the silver (if it added up to cost in the market) to add to the portfolio.

    I'd take the silver, unless I needed immediate cash. Especially if its Eagles, Maples or Philharmonics. Sounds like you're getting offered spot price, and the premium for those coins would be hard to pass up.

    If you need the cash take that. If you aren't pressed take the silver. Today silver closed a 30.80 an ounce so you're getting 462 in value with the chance of it going up later. Plus, if you are into prepping or believe there might be financial problems in the near future the in hand precious metal will be better than paper currency.
