Is Silver Ready To Hit $50 - 1/29/2026: Will It Hit $130? - Previous Milestones In First Post

Where you also one of those kids that had to find the front door key under the mat to let yourself in? Because parents were never home on time?

Not much movement price wise this early morning with gold.......silver dropped to $87.

$86 is still the buy zone, good support there so far.

But it is critical that the move to $93+ occurs prior to any break below the $85-$84 bail out zone or "look out below" price.

I loved that movie; have watched it at least five times.

If we are discussing generations in a silver thread, I am gonna have to
chime in and call myself a member of the 'silver generation' because I was born
when Mercury dimes and Walking Liberty halves were still being minted.
Yeah, I am probably older than all of you but I can still ride motorcycles on a good day, and my hair keeps growing.
It is just the luck of the genetic draw, with a bit of astrology thrown in.
My parents likely would have lived to a hundred if only they had listened to their kids who hated their tobacco habits.
I started coin collecting around age seven with pennies, like many kids did back then, and eventually put together near complete sets of the above two mentioned coin series before I turned eighteen, just from allowance money, found coins and funds earned from neighborhood snow shoveling in winter.
Unfortunately that original collection was stolen from the unlocked house during a family summer vacation to the Seattle Worlds Fair. It was a heartbreak one does not recover from.
NEVER tell your childhood so-called friends that you collect coins, or show them your collection.
The storyteller in me could ramble on, but that's enough history for now.
Meanwhile it is getting harder each day to make sense of these bouncy-bouncy markets, amid the general chaos and uncertainty of the world we live in nowadays.
This forum is an invaluable resource allowing all of us to keep in touch, share experience and insights, as well as bits and pieces from our individual lives.
For these small things I am grateful, and I hope the opportunity continues. Best wishes to everyone, and keep the stories coming.

It's coming, ready to pull the cord and bail out at any moment now.

Ahh yes these are the stories that fascinate me the most when talking to older collectors. For me growing up in the 70's 80's the best I could do, and what I looked forward to finding the most in pocket change, and my families pocket change, was wheaties and Eisenhower dollars. That's what got me started.

I grew up in the same era, but never found any Eisenhower dollars in pocket change. Instead, though, my father used to give me one Eisenhower dollar for each "A" I received on my report card each term.

And, yes, I spent them on candy and other junk.
