The last few days have been a lot of fun watching Bitcoin climb up the charts. It's already topped $122,000 for a new all time high, the only question is now what? It's had a slight pullback the last time I checked as of the time or writing this post up. I think it may test support levels as some profit takers cash out. But I think $150,000 is real possibility in the very near future. Keep stacking up that BTC everyone!
Now onto the real reason for the post today, Texas hold 'em has become the king of poker games. I enjoy playing it myself, but I'm not a great player. Must be the lousy poker face... It was even featured in the new Casino Royale, the James Bond movie starring Daniel Craig.
Some time back I picked up a silver stackable poker chip at local jewelry shop which I frequent. I really didn't know anything about it, it just looked great. It did have some oxidation spots, but with silver rounds that not uncommon. Especially when the former owner doesn't store them in a dry environment. At any rate I was able to get this at silver spot price, that's why I love that particular shop!
Not knowing anything about it, I found the same product on APMEX:
From APMEX.com
It doesn't indicate who made it, but it is one Troy ounce of pure silver which is what counts. I didn't realize that they were meant to be stackable either until I found the info on APMEX. I think it's a pretty cool round, and one I'll hang onto. I probably won't buy any more to create an actual stack of them. I like it, but not that much! I did include the link to APMEX.com where they sell them starting at $43.61 which is $4.99 over silver spot price. The price is of course as of the time of writing up this post... So if you want one, APMEX has them!
Precious metals continue to be a great place to invest and to build personal wealth. In addition to Bitcoin I think it's a great idea to have some physical silver or gold around as it will always have value. With the threat of World War 3 growing every day, silver and gold prices will just keep rising. If the world economic system collapses, everything will likely be paid in cryptocurrency or silver/ gold. Just some food for thought!
That will wrap up my post for today. I hope you liked the silver poker chip, I sure do! Please feel free to leave any question or comments below. I want to thank each and every one of you here on Hive for your support, it is deeply appreciated! Have a great week everyone!
