Silver Bullion - Disadvantages of investing in or owning
silverware (tableware)
What are the disadvantages of investing in or owning silverware (tableware)? This is probably the second question the
potential silver investor will ask after reading or hearing
that silverware (tableware) is among the least popular forms of physical silver to invest in or to own as far as
the serious silver investor is concerned.

Silver Bullion is of the opinion that investing in or owning silverware (tableware) has the following disadvantages attached to
it:
Divisibility: Silverware (tableware), unlike
silver coins which are standardized measures of
silver purity and weight, are not easily
divisible between the beneficiaries of an estate if you want to do it fairly and equally, especially considering
silverware (tableware) of great sentimental value.
In addition to the above, you don’t want to sit with a situation
where you have to sell the silverware (tableware) in an estate or exchange it for non-redeemable paper notes (fiat money) in order to divide it equally
between beneficiaries. It is much easier and more cost-effective to buy silver that is divisible from the beginning, and
then we’re not referring to paper silver, we’re rather referring to physical silver, especially in the form of
1 oz silver bullion coins (American Silver Eagles, Canadian Silver Maple Leafs, Mexican Silver Libertads, Chinese Silver Pandas, Australian Silver Kookaburras,
Australian Silver Kangaroos, British Silver Britannia and Austrian Silver Vienna
Philharmonics).

The silver investor simply doesn't want to force the
beneficiaries of his/her estate into a situation where they have to cut silverware (tableware) in half or are being forced to sell it in
order to divide the fiat money proceeds between them, especially
during times of rampant silver market manipulation and while the
"paper gimmick" is still pretty much at the order
of the day (at the time this was written).
