Silver in it's PUREST Form - Silver Shot
As much as people enjoy the various shapes and tokens and coins made of pure AG, my favorite form is simple "shot". The grains are small and feel good in the hand. It can be weighed to precise measurements and if AG ever becomes worth what it may become worth... having it in tiny increments might come in handy!
This little bag contains 1 OZt of 0.999% pure silver.
Imagine trading one tiny grain of silver for a gallon of milk or a gallon of gasoline?
I carefully count the little silver shot and discover 103 little pieces. With silver's current price of about $24.33, each tiny piece would average to about $0.23 each. If silver 10x'd and became $243.30/ ozt (could happen) then each tiny piece would be worth $2.30 each! If silver 100x'd (yes, it's possible) then each tiny grain would be $23.00 each!
Trouble of course is, if we ever see these prices, it's likely massive inflation, a symptom of a failing dollar, and a gallon of milk or a gallon of gas would be several hundreds of dollars. But would silver increase in proportion to gas or milk? I think so!
That means that if an ounce troy of silver buys 8 gallons of gas today, if (when) gas becomes $10/gallon, one ounce troy silver will likely be $80.00 or more! IF (when) gas becomes $100/gallon, silver will likely be $800 or more.
A weakened dollar floats all boats and when the necessities of life increase, precious metals (eventually) also increase in equal proportions. When the EFT fraud is eventually dismantled (or fails) we will begin to see the true intrinsic value of silver and not just the weakness of the dollar.
How excited would we be handing over our silver collectibles to pay for groceries? No premium, just silver weight? No thanks. Silver shot is what we use for trade, just as it has been done for thousands of years.
This is why it's my favorite form of SILVER, because it is the most liquid and tradable. Simple, with no nuministic or artistic value that is in the eye of the beholder - just simple WEIGHT.

Bless the Most High!
Teach Your Children Liberty from Sin
We encourage parents to teach their children principles of Godliness, beginning with the Word and an understanding who God is and what His Son has done to form a relationship with us.
No one can lay a foundation other than the one already laid, which is Jesus Christ. If anyone builds on this foundation using gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, or straw, his workmanship will be evident, because the Day will bring it to light. It will be revealed with fire, and the fire will prove the quality of each man’s work. 1 Corinthians 3:11-13
Teach Your children Liberty from Tyranny
Second to this is the principle of self-determination and freedom, lest we loose the ability to teach our children the first principle in future generations.
Our children read the Tuttle Twin books, specifically to learn libertarian principles, which most people learn later in life. These books are useful for our family, and yours, to teach children concepts that seem complicated, but are made simple in these books.

That is actually a really cool and I love it when gold is in the same form. And for the same exact reasons. Thank you very much for showing us even more awesome silver content.

Much appreciated my friend! !LUV

You're very welcome!
I have silver shot. But I use it for pouring pieces.
That's reasonable, it's what it's made for. :-)
Awesome silver! I love silver shot! The sad part is you're right, has is heading towards a hundred bucks a gallon the way things are here in southern California!
I really hope I'm wrong. Very wrong. There is a gas station near me with gas under $3.00/gallon it's almost miraculous.
That's almost dirt cheap! I remember back in the nineties when there was a brief period it was less than a dollar a gallon. The good old days!
Sweet. Shot is a fun addition. I have a few vials
My favorite! Maybe I'm a little weird.
You really took time for the calculation knowing what will happen to dollars, gas and milk depending on the price of silver
.
I really don't know what will happen to dollars, I hope the dollar remains strong, against all odds.
Nice one @ironshield

These are cool 👍

Thank you @ijelady and @heartbeatonhive
Very cool! I need to get some shot eventually.
Good plan. It's very satisfying in the hand.
While these can be fun form of silver to possess and I have some as well, I don't think silver shot is as practical and tradable as compared to a silver dime unless everyone carried a scale and a Sigma verifier with them to confirm the silver shot's weight and purity. Recognizablity does play a key role in commerce.
I suppose there are advantages to coins with known purity and weight. Shot could be lower purity and would require a scale as you said. Could cut silver dimes into quarters for small transactions. Thanks for the observations!
I don't have any shot yet having a hard time finding some around here
It might be found in industry?
Those are some raw silvers mehn
If I may ask, do people only get them by digging the ground or how do people get it?
Usually precious metal dealers offer trades between currency and metal. Some actually recover silver from old electronics (which is thrown away) and from old photography. That's a lot more work with little reward.
Rear commodity. Lovely posts.

Certainly a rare commodity.

It's just like all of us who love silver and hold it and we'll see it rise in price in.
Wow, Benjamin, that silver is beautiful! When fiat currencies like the US dollar become worthless, assets like silver, gold, and cryptocurrencies like Hive's assets will become very important indeed! You answered the question I had in my mind about how precious metals could be easily carried and traded! Silver shot! Thank you for sharing! Super cool! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
It will indeed be awesome handing over one's silver collectibles to pay for certain needs of ours...gasoline, milk etc.
Your favourite choice of silver is cool and tradable. Keep accumulating friend.
