Do you have a GSR number where you'd entertain trading for gold ? In 11 mos the ratio has gone from 105 to 62 which in itself is astounding and I figure its getting to the point where I'd at least consider trading my 5 and 10 oz bars and 90% for gold If I thought I was getting a fair shake. That way I could get a half dozen or so gold coins while still keeping skin in the game with my coins and rounds.

I think my number is closer to 50 to 1 when, and if, it happens then its a no brainer. Do you guys have a number and what is it ?
 
There's one more thing that comes into play here, and it's different for everybody. At least it is for me. That is,.... the price I paid for what I'm going to trade, that AND the ratio of what I paid, to what it's worth today.

Aye — that's the ticket, bro.
I'm comparing what silver cost me to buy in 2011 vs how much Au I could have bought, to determine a break even point.
 
I'm keeping my eye on it, will maybe do a little at a time on the way down. But not planning on starting until 30:1
I did 3 oz of Gold for 300 oz of silver back in April when it was 105:1 ( the 5 in the 105:1 covered the Premium )

I'm holding till at least 45:1 before I consider selling any.

Plus I'm hugely in Profit purely on the price rise in the 300 oz of SILVER I have for the Gold ( Silver has increased it's Value % wise, much more than Gold )

Hi Ho Silver 😎
 
My last Ag —> Au was about 42:1. About eight or ten years ago if I remember right.
But I'm not looking to make a killing, I just want to divest a 100 oz bar into fractional gold.

if i get a chance i will try to get to a lcs next week to discuss this ......moving 100ozers to gold or smaller silver

saw you had discussed on another thread and was put off by the discounts below spot ......my opinion is the face to face market is what can be negotiated just like premiums, discounts are just part of doing business and spot is just a indicator of possible value so dont hang your hat to tight to spot price at least in my opinion
