>>20321130>Please do.Great, i'll have to dig in my holiday papers because i have a terrible memory but i'll definitely do, i'll catch you later on.
>If I showed up with 1k euro that I wanted to spend all on silver, what should I seek out and how much should I reasonably expect to spend?Ok so our cheapest of the cheap are our 10F & 20F Turins. Since they are pretty ugly and low content (.680) it's very easy to find them below spot.
https://fr.numista.com/catalogue/pieces684.htmlThen the "normie" choice usually are the 1960's 5 Francs Semeuses. They are very well known and a gazillion of those were minted, so they are very liquid. They have a nice format (contain 10g pure), standard LMU content (.835) and are relatively pleasing to the eye, so it's a safe bet. Since frog boomies are slow to adapt, the price will lag and you should be able to find them for below spot for few months.
https://fr.numista.com/catalogue/pieces679.html Then the "classic" Hercules (5F, 10F and 50F), very popular because they are big coins with high purity who feel great in hand. The equivalent of the German 5 Mark/Italian 5 Lira/etc during the LMU. You never see those below spot unless they are damaged, but good thing is you will always get your premium back. Most stackers around the world know about those so it should be easy to trade no matter the country you are in. It's a coin with a certain prestige too since the oldest ones date back from the revolution, so they are popular among collectors who want to do a 1792-1980 serie for example. They are getting a bit harder to get each year because ppl tend to hoard them and sell them last.

>butter (is this brand considered good? It's quite expensive hereNever heard of it sorry. It's maybe some regional butter and we don't see it on shelves elsewhere.
