Silver to become a rare earth metal , it is Extremely undervalued. Silver to become extinct by year 2020 according to geologists only 300 millions ounces left! Silver is consumable industry metal it is used up : 95% gold ever found is still around 75% of silver is a by-product of mining other metal only 25% is primary product of mining,In 1480 the price of one ounce of Silver was equal to one ounce of Gold, Low supply, high demand Price to skyrocket get your silver and stay long!
Silver, above ground, is more rare than gold! There is seven times as much gold above ground as compared to silver!

Gold prices stagnant, investors look to end of QE3 – BULLION MORNING
Gold prices remained stagnant in early morning trading on Monday in London, with the focus now shifting to the FOMC meeting this week, which is widely tipped to signal the end of the US’ third quantitative easing programme (QE3).
The spot gold price last traded at $1,230.50/1,231.20 per ounce, unchanged on Friday’s close and locked within a tight $4 range.
Focus now turns to what many believe to be the end of QE3, which has buoyed the US economy for the last 27 months, although it is unlikely to have a marked effect on prices, any changes to forward rate guidance would affect precious metals down the line.
“Our economists expect the Fed to end QE3. Although it is widely anticipated, we believe the floor for gold has firmed in the short term, as physical buying has gained momentum and net speculative positioning has risen due to fresh longs and short covering,” Barclays Capital said in a note.
With the near-term outlook on gold improving, net long fund positions in the metal have climbed for the fourth consecutive week, with jumping 22,569 contracts to 107,984 contracts.http://www.bulliondesk.com/gold-news/bullion-morning-gold-prices-stagnant-investors-look-to-end-qe3-84021/

Silver under $17 for the first time in 4 years
Silver closed last week under $17 for the first time in 4 years. Maybe we have in store another "event" like 2008, 2011 or 2013 where the "price" gets forced down which explodes demand to a point where shortages again show up? I have written several times before how a shortage should never ever show up in any real market if prices crash because of "selling". If real silver were in fact being sold then the market would be awash in silver and no shortage could exist. ...The last 3 episodes there were severe shortages which is your proof that it was not in fact real metal being sold, only paper contracts representing metal, this logic is not arguable.
I have written several times regarding the high and growing open interest in the COMEX silver contracts. It is my belief the Chinese via proxy are the longs and will at some point call for delivery. I was "reprimanded" by a very famous commodities trader telling me that the open interest was high only because of "spread trades". Spread trades only amount to 23,000 contracts which if subtracted would still leave us with 150,000 contracts or more of silver, still historically high. Something is just not right, the open interest in gold is near multi year lows while silver touched 6 year highs last week, "spreads" do not explain it.

Silver -- Supply and Demand
Supply and demand: Speaking with SIN earlier this year, Andrew Chanin, co-founder of the PureFunds ISE Junior Silver ETF (ARCA:SILJ), laid out the reasons he believes a silver supply shortage is on the horizon. They include the metal’s increasing industrial applications and growing investment demand, and more experts have come forward with numerous other reasons that miners likely will not be able to keep up with demand. Most recently, Money Metals Exchange issued a reminder in that vein. http://silverinvestingnews.com/26694/silver-price-rise-outlook-levon-tsxlvn-silvercrest-great-panther.html

Gold and Silver Stocks Apocalypse Now, Bear Market Review
By: Rambus_Chartology
In part I, Phase III-Dead Ahead, we established the macro case for the final phase of the gold stock bear market. As the bear market progresses the economies key constraint remains the level of debt, specifically the size and composition of the national balance sheet which has baked in the cake a deflationary outcome. It is this wave of deflation that will drive the final phase of this bear market to unimagined lows. The good news, however is when it's finally over the precious metals will transition into the next bull market. We will examine this process and the sign posts along the way as we complete phase III of the bear market and transition into the beginning of the next bull market in the precious metals.
Bear Market review
This precious metals bear market is following the classic bear market sequence. After breaking down out of its phase I top it entered into a long protracted decline. This decline, over time, established doubt that we were simply in a pull back in an ongoing bull market. This phase II price erosion lasting 17 months, diminished investors conviction sufficiently so to make them ripe for a psychological change. This change event was triggered with the April 2013 Goldman bear raid of the gold market. This raid collectively triggered the point of recognition (POR) among investors that the precious metals sector was in a bear market. It took 20 months from the Sept 2011 top to reach this point. Prior to this point the prevailing belief was we were still in a bull market. The PM market then underwent dual crashes in April and June 2013 which was the process of pricing in the recent shift in investor psychology. Since this period the market has taken 16 months to consolidate these crashes by undergoing a complex diamond consolidation pattern all within the context of phase II. It now appears this process is complete and is now entering into the final phase III of the bear market. This is the classic pattern of a bear market as I outlined in a previous essay:http://www.marketoracle.co.uk/Article47664.html

BANKERS MANIPULATION OF GOLD & SILVER: Proof In The Demand Data
By Steve St. Angelo, SRSrocco Report
The Banker Cartel has a method to their madness in manipulating the precious metals and commodity markets. Let’s just say, the value of some commodities are controlled to move one direction while others, in another. This can clearly be seen when we compare gold & silver versus oil markets.
Investors need to realize energy, especially oil overtook the role of gold and silver as the most vital source of wealth in the early 1900’s. While it’s true that oil is burned and consumed… the ownership or control of oil reserves allowed the WEST to dominate the world in trade and finance.
A growing global oil supply allows the fiat monetary system to continue. As I have mentioned in many of my articles, the peak and decline of cheap oil will be DEATH on the fiat monetary system–especially the U.S. Dollar.
Most of the analysis on the precious metals is very focused and specialized. Sometimes, the most interesting results are found looking in a much broader way. If we look at the following charts, we can see how the Bankers manipulated gold and silver, while allowing the price of oil to remain high.
Here is a five-year chart of Brent crude. There are a few important aspects of this chart worth explaining.http://news.goldseek.com/GoldSeek/1412860087.php

Silver Arbitrage?
Bill Holter Tuesday, October 7th
Silver closed last week under $17 for the first time in 4 years. Maybe we have in store another "event" like 2008, 2011 or 2013 where the "price" gets forced down which explodes demand to a point where shortages again show up? I have written several times before how a shortage should never ever show up in any real market if prices crash because of "selling". If real silver were in fact being sold then the market would be awash in silver and no shortage could exist. ...The last 3 episodes there were severe shortages which is your proof that it was not in fact real metal being sold, only paper contracts representing metal, this logic is not arguable.
I have written several times regarding the high and growing open interest in the COMEX silver contracts. It is my belief the Chinese via proxy are the longs and will at some point call for delivery. I was "reprimanded" by a very famous commodities trader telling me that the open interest was high only because of "spread trades". Spread trades only amount to 23,000 contracts which if subtracted would still leave us with 150,000 contracts or more of silver, still historically high. Something is just not right, the open interest in gold is near multi year lows while silver touched 6 year highs last week, "spreads" do not explain it.
I have also argued that both silver and gold have seen concentrated sales where 50% or more of global production is dumped within 24-36 hours which in a real market where real metal trades, could not ever happen. Who could have this size of metal and who would sell in a fashion to destroy their own price even if they did? The answers of course are no one, and no one. I get it, hedge funds are momentum traders and pile on in whatever direction any commodity is moving but gold and silver have now had access trades open lower or unchanged in 106 out of the last 110 trading days. This is a statistical impossibility. So it is what it is, but what does it mean, and what has silver trading way below the cost of production now unleashed?

GATA Chairman: JPM Has RUN OUT of Physical Silver- Most Explosive Gains of Entire Bull Market Ahead!
GATA Chairman Bill Murphy joins The Doc & Eric Dubin on this week's show to discuss:
1. Why Murphy believes JPMorgan accumulated vast stores of PHYSICAL SILVER into the 2011 top while shorting the paper market, and has used the physical stockpiles to smash silver lower over the past 3 years- resulting in a paper fortune for JPM, but that the market action over the past 2 months indicates JPM has RUN OUT OF PHYSICAL SILVER to manipulate prices down!
2. Gold & silver's trading in the wake of the MH17 tragedy- Murphy explains why the cartel never allow the PMs to hold their gains from an international crisis
3. Big money responds to early week take-down of gold & silver with massive physical buying- signs we may be in the early stages of a massive sustained run for the metals
4. The GATA Chairman provides his current outlook for gold & silver, and states that the next rally will see the most volatile and explosive moves to the upside for gold & silver of the entire bull market!

Gold Has More Value Than Silver - Don Harrold
Manipulation increased for silver and gold in 2011. Rules were changed,
charts were painted more than usual starting then. Effort was made to
move the stock market, real estate market, etc much higher. Sentiment is
still extremely negative from Western investors towards gold and
silver. Charts are better but not great. Most Western investors tend to
only buy good charts. Majority are trend traders.

The Coming Silver Shortage
silver as an investment is a long-term strategy. The stock market rally is FAKE!!! The housing rally is FAKE!! Just as fake as they were pre-2008. Remember what happened then? Multitudes were wiped out! Unless you have a crystal ball and know exactly when to get out, it'll be deja vu all over again. Good luck with that.
The Law of "Supply and demand" is about to kick in and the planets are lining up, for Precious metals. The economy is still in a downward spiral, MILLIONS are unemployed, social unrest is rearing it's ugly head, the War drums are beating and the printing presses are feverishly cranking out MONOPOLY MONEY, 24/7. An economic train wreck can't be too far behind!

Silver is more useful as an industrial metal
One of the reasons people mention to invest in silver is that this
precious metal could - according to some - return to a monetary asset
somewhere in the future. This is because people will fall back on silver
coins as an alternative means of payment, once fiat money becomes
worthless. This is because silver has retained value throughout the
years. Despite this, it is very unlikely to expect central banks and
governments to embrace silver coinage once again. To understand this, we
only have to read the speech president Lyndon B. Johnson gave when he
signed the Coinage Act in 1965...
Two generations ago, silver was still widely used for the production of official coinage, but today all countries have abandoned the use of the precious metal for coinage. The silver coins still do exist, but they are hoarded because of their intrinsic value. Bags of silver coinage can be bought all over the world for the spot price of silver.
For day to day payments silver coinage has been replaced with coinage made from base metals like zinc and nickel. Also, coinage in general is gradually being replaced with digital bank transactions.
In 1967, the Netherlands stopped producing silver coinage. The guilder and the 2,5 guilder coins were no longer minted with 72% silver. In 1970 and 1973, the last 10 guilder coins with 72% silver content were minted. Since then, the guilder was made out of nickel and the silver coins started to disappear from circulation. Today, the silver coinage can still be bought for their intrinsic value.

Silver as money
For centuries silver has been used to create coinage, because the metal has some beneficial properties. The total above ground supply of the precious metal was relatively big compared to the annual mining production, which gave some stability to the price of the metal. Also, silver is very resistant to corrosion and it has anti-bacterial properties. These properties are great for a piece of metal that has to circulate from one person to another.Two generations ago, silver was still widely used for the production of official coinage, but today all countries have abandoned the use of the precious metal for coinage.

Gold-silver price ratio may fall as gold cools faster
MUMBAI: The price of gold might fall more than that of silver this year, taking the price ratio between the two precious metals back towards its five-year average. Gold has been on a downtrend as pickup in global economies has reduced demand for this safe asset. This may offer music to the ears of Indian consumers, as they begin to purchase jewellery for the festival and marriage seasons. ET data show the gold-silver ratio averaged 55.71 in the five years through end-2013.

The Unavoidable Silver Shortage
Last year, total mine production of Silver was 819 million ounces, but demand for silver was 1.1 billion ounces.
Therefore, there was a 262 million ounce shortfall in silver. Thus far, the shortage has been mostly met by using recycled silver and from government stockpiles. Even so, the shortage is there.
On the demand side, physical demand has increased 13%. Last year the U.S. Mint actually sold out of silver products, reports said. China’s use of silver for solar panels was less than 1 million in ounces in 2005, but in 2013 China used 35 million ounces just for solar panels. In 1999, the amount of silver used in solar panels in the United States was not even reported. By 2015, 100 million ounces of silver are projected for solar energy use.
Some 62% of silver is used for industrial applications, 21% for jewelry, and 12% for coins. Given these used, the data argues that “95% of all silver consumed is gone, never to enter the supply side again.

Therefore, there was a 262 million ounce shortfall in silver. Thus far, the shortage has been mostly met by using recycled silver and from government stockpiles. Even so, the shortage is there.
Looking At The Numbers
Recently published data points argued that recycled silver cannot continue to meet the gap between supply and demand. The supply of recycled silver dropped 24% last year, which is the largest decrease on record. Supply is also falling. Seven of the ten leading silver mines produced less silver in 2013 than in 2012. Production in the Silver State, Nevada, is down 70.4% over the past 16 years. The US Geological Survey reports that ore grades have collapsed 90%, which means that far more ore has to be mined in order to produce the same amount of silver. Exploration has also come to almost a complete halt due to higher financing costs, so there is little chance of new finds of sources of silver.On the demand side, physical demand has increased 13%. Last year the U.S. Mint actually sold out of silver products, reports said.

Silver Coinage Act
Back to the US, where the silver coinage was abandoned earlier with the Coinage Act of 1965. On 23 July 1965, president Johnson held a speech before Congress in which he explained why the government was about the stop minting silver coinage. I would like to highlight the following part of the speech.
"Now, all of you know these changes are necessary for a very simple reason--silver is a scarce material. Our uses of silver are growing as our population and our economy grows. The hard fact is that silver consumption is now more than double new silver production each year. So, in the face of this worldwide shortage of silver, and our rapidly growing need for coins, the only really prudent course was to reduce our dependence upon silver for making our coins. If we had not done so, we would have risked chronic coin shortages in the very near future."

3 Reasons Why I Am Bullish on Silver
By Matt Smith
Global stock markets continued to be wracked by rising volatility because of a range of economic and geopolitical events that are fueling greater concern among investors. This is generating renewed interest in precious metals, including gold, silver, and platinum, as investors seek safe-haven investments to avoid this volatility.
1. Geopolitical and economic risk is rising
Economic and geopolitical crises are gripping the globe. Earlier this year, emerging markets plunged as the Argentine peso was sold off; now Argentina has defaulted yet again on its debt, and there is growing concern that Portugal’s banking system is nearing collapse.
Conflict is raging across the Middle East, with insurgents controlling swathes of Syria and Iraq, renewed open warfare between opposing parties in Libya, and Israel continuing to prosecute a war against Hamas in the Gaza Strip. War in the Ukraine is also intensifying, with it fast becoming a proxy conflict between the West and Russia, fueling further concern about how far it will escalate.
These developments have thrown the spotlight firmly on safe-haven investments and will continue to push silver prices higher as investors seek a cost-effective alternative to global stock markets.
2. The gold-to-silver ratio widens further
Historically, there has been a close correlation between the prices of silver and gold. This is expressed in the form of the gold-to-silver-ratio, indicating how many ounces of silver are needed to buy one ounce of gold. Over the years this ratio has fluctuated wildly, falling as low as 20 ounces of silver to buy one ounce of gold in 1970 to a high of 89 ounces in 1991.
For the year to date, the ratio has widened, now requiring 66 ounces of silver to buy an ounce of gold. This is well in excess of the historical average of 47 ounces over the last century and well above the figure 43 ounces required at the height of the gold bull market.
If silver correlates to gold at the same level as at the peak of the gold bull market, then silver offers potential upside of 53%. Even if the ratio narrows to the average over the last century, there is potential upside of 40%.
This indicates that now is the time to buy silver as a hedge against both inflation and as a safe-haven investment in place of gold.http://www.fool.ca/2014/08/18/3-reasons-why-i-am-bullish-on-silver/

Recently published data points argued that recycled silver cannot continue to meet the gap between supply and demand. The supply of recycled silver dropped 24% last year, which is the largest decrease on record. Supply is also falling. Seven of the ten leading silver mines produced less silver in 2013 than in 2012. Production in the Silver State, Nevada, is down 70.4% over the past 16 years. The US Geological Survey reports that ore grades have collapsed 90%, which means that far more ore has to be mined in order to produce the same amount of silver. Exploration has also come to almost a complete halt due to higher financing costs, so there is little chance of new finds of sources of silver.

Silver to Gold Ratio is way out of whack
It's important to note that silver is a precious metal due to its rarity, but it is also used as an industrial metal as listed above. What makes silver so, so very special is that at the rate it is being used now it will be gone by 2020. Does that sound crazy? If so, that is a statement taken from the USGS (United States Geological Society).
Gold is a precious metal as well, but gold only acts as a store of wealth. It is used very little in industrial applications. So, what makes silver such a great investment besides what I have talked about? Well, silver is only about $19/ounce right now! That is an absolute steal considering that historically it has taken about 15 ounces of silver to buy one ounce of gold. Right now that ratio is at about 70 ounces of silver to buy one ounce of gold. So, the ratio is way out of whack and must go lower.
Many experts state that the silver to gold ratio should be about 10:1. In other words, there should be about 10 ounces of silver in the ground for every one ounce of gold. The ratio is now 70:1, and it is only kept this way by market manipulators. Once the manipulation ends, silver will skyrocket. What's more, the amount of silver being used for industry has been increasing year after year due to the demand for electronics. China, India, and other nations who are industrializing are putting a huge demand on the already over stretched silver market.

Why Silver Will Not Return As Money
Summary
- Silver is more useful as an industrial metal.
- Using silver as coinage would drive up prices.
- Fiat money is just as effective as a medium of exchange.
Silver as money
For centuries silver has been used to create coinage, because the metal has some beneficial properties. The total above ground supply of the precious metal was relatively big compared to the annual mining production, which gave some stability to the price of the metal. Also, silver is very resistant to corrosion and it has anti-bacterial properties. These properties are great for a piece of metal that has to circulate from one person to another.Two generations ago, silver was still widely used for the production of official coinage, but today all countries have abandoned the use of the precious metal for coinage. The silver coins still do exist, but they are hoarded because of their intrinsic value. Bags of silver coinage can be bought all over the world for the spot price of silver.
For day to day payments silver coinage has been replaced with coinage made from base metals like zinc and nickel. Also, coinage in general is gradually being replaced with digital bank transactions.
In 1967, the Netherlands stopped producing silver coinage. The guilder and the 2,5 guilder coins were no longer minted with 72% silver. In 1970 and 1973, the last 10 guilder coins with 72% silver content were minted. Since then, the guilder was made out of nickel and the silver coins started to disappear from circulation. Today, the silver coinage can still be bought for their intrinsic value.

62% of Silver is used for Industrial applications
Some 62% of silver is used for industrial applications, 21% for jewelry, and 12% for coins. Given these used, the data argues that “95% of all silver consumed is gone, never to enter the supply side again.” Even so, “A real shortage in the physical markets is being completely ignored.” The paper silver market, Comex, sells 100 ounces of paper silver for every single ounce of physical silver available. The Comex price has been depressed by shorts, which are near record highs. The shorts are not held by producers locking in prices. The shorts have been purchased by banks, the CFTC, US Treasury and the Federal Reserve. The shorts have, “Crushed the price of silver,” and mining shares.

Comex Paper Silver Vs. Physical Silver available
The paper silver market, Comex, sells 100 ounces of paper silver for every single ounce of physical silver available. The Comex price has been depressed by shorts, which are near record highs. The shorts are not held by producers locking in prices. The shorts have been purchased by banks, the CFTC, US Treasury and the Federal Reserve. The shorts have, “Crushed the price of silver,” and mining shares.
Given the demand for silver, however, low prices cannot last forever. “The silver shorts will be squeezed because of the real physical shortage that is upon is,” the story argues. When that happens, the price of paper and physical silver will rise dramatically. Today investors have an opportunity to own silver at a price less than the cost to produce it. The upside potential for silver is tremendous due to the huge and growing gap between supply and demand.
The Equity Management Academy recently reported that “Right now there is a severe shortage brewing in the silver markets that could easily double or triple your money in 2015.” Learn more here.

The Coming Silver Shortage
Last week, CrushTheStreet.com posted a video called “The Coming Silver Shortage.” Its main point is that “all available supply [of silver] is being consumed, and a real shortage in the physical markets is being completely ignored.”
I would tend to look at silver to the historical ratio to gold and stop comparing it to the value of worthless paper bills. The historical ratio is 15:1 and currently sitting around 53-60:1. Going by this and using some super thick headed simple maths it's easy to see that silver is grossly under valued even without economic collapse by a simple sum. Try taking the current cost of gold £777.03 and dividing it by the historical ratio - 15 gives silver price of 51.80 per ounce, which is what it should be currently valued at...but it's not, due to the mass market manipulations it's currently on sale at 11.50, it's super cheap and can only go up, anyone who can present evidence to prove otherwise is welcomed too. silver is a great store of value and much safer than storing savings in any stocks or isas at present. My advice, Purchase coins, they look good and collectible, it's more of a hobby for me.

The Silver Shorts will be Squeezed due to a Real Physical Silver Shortage
The price of silver, set largely by the COMEX, currently has one of the highest concentrated short positions with the 8 largest COMEX shorts near record highs for silver. Unlike other commodities where it is the producers themselves hedging their sales and locking in prices for future production, the actual silver miners hedging is at a multi-decade lows.
This silver manipulation by the worlds largest banks, supported by the CFTC, U.S. Treasury, and Federal Reserve has been so successful, that they have not only crushed the price of silver in spite of rising demand, but they have crushed the mining shares and future investment capital for the entire sector.
Simply put, the silver shorts will be squeezed due to a real physical silver shortage that is upon us, when this happens, all hell will break loose in both the paper and physical precious metal markets.

3 Catalysts for a Silver Price Rebound
By Charlotte McLeod
3 Catalysts for a Silver Price Rebound
Q2 is over and done with, but the trends and key events it brought with it are still impacting the market.
According to Andrew Chanin, co-founder of the PureFunds ISE Junior Silver ETF (ARCA:SILJ), those trends include the continued positive performance of silver miners and a stagnant silver price, while the quarter’s key event was the news that the London Silver Fix would be replaced in August.
To get a better understanding of how those factors affected — and continue to affect — the silver market, Silver Investing News (SIN) sat down to chat with Chanin. Here’s what he had to say.
SIN last spoke with Chanin not long after the end of Q1, at which time he commented that “Q1 showed a very strong reversal in mining stocks from the trend we saw last year,” when precious metals “were one of the most punished sectors.”
When asked if mining stocks continued to perform well in 2014′s second quarter, Chanin said that though “we started to see a little bit of a sell off again” in March, “as we approached June, we began to see that the miners had started leading the way again and the metals started following them.”
It might seem odd that silver miners are performing better than silver itself, but according to Chanin “it’s not that uncommon.” Indeed, he said, “we’ve seen this several times already this year, as well as many times historically.” This time, he believes that renewed interest in silver stocks “was probably due to political tension” in addition to “the announcement that the silver fix was going to cease to exist in its current form.”

The supply of recycled silver dropped 24% last year, which is the largest decrease on record. Supply is also falling. Seven of the ten leading silver mines produced less silver in 2013 than in 2012.

Exploration has also come to almost a complete halt due to higher financing costs, so there is little chance of new finds of sources of silver.On the demand side, physical demand has increased 13%. Last year the U.S. Mint actually sold out of silver products, reports said. China’s use of silver for solar panels was less than 1 million in ounces in 2005, but in 2013 China used 35 million ounces just for solar panels. In 1999, the amount of silver used in solar panels in the United States was not even reported. By 2015, 100 million ounces of silver are projected for solar energy use.
Some 62% of silver is used for industrial applications, 21% for jewelry, and 12% for coins. Given these used, the data argues that “95% of all silver consumed is gone, never to enter the supply side again.”

SILVER COINS - Royal Canadian Mint Wildlife Series
RCM Silver Wildlife Series
Royal Canadian Mint Wildlife Silver Coins - With a limited mintage of only 1,000,000 each, these Wildlife Series Silver coins are scarce in the world of bullion! There were a total of six different Canadian wildlife designs released in three years: the Timber Wolf and Grizzly in 2011, the Cougar and Moose in 2012, and the Wood Bison and Pronghorn Antelope in 2013. With the .9999 fine Silver purity, $5 CAN face value, articulate wildlife design and low mintage, the Canadian Wildlife Series 1 oz Silver Coins are a hit with bullion enthusiasts and coin collectors alike!
The Royal Canadian Mint has cemented its reputation for producing some of the purest bullion coins on earth with the Canadian Silver Wildlife Series.
Celebrating Canada’s vast and bountiful wildlife, each Silver Wildlife Coin is composed of 1 troy ounce of .9999 pure silver, backed and guaranteed by the Canadian government.
he Canadian Silver Maple Leaf is a silver bullion coin issued annually by the government of Canada. The coin has been minted by the Royal Canadian Mint (R.C.M.) since 1988.
The face value of the coin is 5 Canadian Dollars.
The market value of the coin varies, depending on the 'spot price' of Silver (plus a small premium).
A common blemish that many Canadian Silver Maple Leaves carry is the "Milk Spot." It is a baked-in blemish that has a milky white appearance. This happens when a cleaning detergent is left on the coin when the coin goes into the annealing furnace.
The coin always features a maple leaf and generally consists of 1 troy ounce (31.1 g) of silver. Annual variations for the coin in past have included proof releases (1989 only), privy marks, a coloured maple leaf (with a design different from the regular maple leaf),
The one universal element in all silver maple leaf coins is the phrase "Fine Silver 1 oz Argent Pur" along the bottom of the reverse of the coin.
For many Americans the country of Mexico conjures up images of a third world nation. The poverty, lack of basic services, and extreme violence has left the populace so desperate that thousands of people on a daily basis head to the United States for a better life.
But according to Future Money Trends, all that could change in the near future as key Mexican financial leaders and politicians have been working to institute sweeping monetary change that, if implemented, could unleash a global power shift of epic proportions.
“Take just three or four men out of the ‘anti’ group,” says Hugo Salinas Price, a Mexican multi-billionaire and the man behind the monetary push, “and we could practically get a unanimous ‘yes’ vote in both houses.”
Like recent monetary shifts in Russia, China and the middle east that aim to divest themselves of US dollar reserve trade requirements, the news of such a move in Mexico has been downplayed. And though it is being generally ignored as a serious possibility, a powerful consortium of influential people in Mexico believe it is a realistic possibility, and one that could be responsible for shifting the balance of world power.
During the third quarter of 2013, silver mining costs averaged $21.39 per ounce, Tony Davis, owner of Atlanta Gold & Coin Buyers, states in an article published in The Paramus Post. That’s above the price that silver is currently selling for — $20.25 per ounce at yesterday’s close. Peter Schiff, author of Real Crash: America’s Coming Bankruptcy, tells Yahoo! Finance’s Breakout show he predicts that a major economic collapse will happen by 2015 that will make the 2008 recession pale in comparison.
He warns hyperinflation may ensue if the government again prints money out of thin air to bail out mortgage lenders and others, and warns against depending on the stability of the dollar: “Anything in dollars, even if you’ve got dollars stuffed in your mattress you’re going to lose because they’re not going to buy you what you expect.”

Silver Demand to Increase by 20-Million Ounces by 2018
Posted on August 7, 2014 by Editor
According to a new report released by the Silver Institute, the demand for silver is expected to exceed projected global GDP growth. Silver demand should grow by 5% per year from 2014 to 2016. Demand for industrial silver, which accounts for over 50% of global demand, will rise due to its use in three key areas: flexible electronics displays, LEDs, and semiconductor computer chips.
“With the introduction of these advanced uses of silver in the electrical and electronics category, which last year provided over 40% of total silver industrial demand, along with growth in established uses, we should see silver industrial demand develop even further, especially as economies grow globally.” – Michael DiRienzo, Executive Director of the Silver Institute.

China & The Silver Shortage
China, who in 2005 used less than a million ounces of silver for solar panels, absorbed 35 million ounces for solar in 2013.
62% of silver is used for industrial applications like nearly all of our electronics, biology, medicine, and other commercial uses. 21% is used for jewelry and 12% for coins.
95% of all silver consumed is gone, never to enter the supply side again.
On the industrial side of silver, there is about 28 cents in your cell phone, unless silver reaches the thousands of dollars per ounce, that silver is gone!
Silver formed into jewelry is the most costly silver, both because of its use and personal value to those who own it. This silver is essentially gone!
Silvers new uses are rising, all available supply is being consumed and a real shortage in the physical markets is being completely ignored due to the paper markets which sell at least 100 ounces of silver for every physical ounce that in reality is available.
Silver’s use in solar panels was not even reported in 1999, by 2015, it is estimated that 100 million ounces of silver are projected for solar energy use.

The Future Silver Shortage
It's down only because TPTB (the powers that be) are manipulating the price on the COMEX. And they only sell paper silver. They don't even have any silver. It's a con game to manipulate the price so we the people can't make any profit. But the time is coming, very soon, when their ponzi scheme will be over. Then silver price will skyrocket. It is just a matter of time. Buy now while there is silver to buy. When the price starts going up you won't be able to get any. It's cheap, it's available and the door is closing.

Will Silver Breakout of range?
Silver is often an overlooked precious metal, especially in comparison to the publicity garnered by gold and platinum. The last several months has seen silver trade in a range of $18.75 to $20.25 per oz. While picking tops and bottoms is next to impossible, that range did create some nice trading opportunities for market participants. More importantly perhaps, an extended period of consolidation, such as the one that we have seen in the silver market most recently, often foreshadows a significant breakout to either the up- or downside. With the recent uptick by $4.490 on heavy volume, we may have seen the start of a break-out to the upside, with both technical and fundamental factors in agreement.
Fundamental Factors
In February, I wrote an article on Silver, explaining why silver was poised to become the best performing precious metal of 2014. While to date, this has not materialized, more recent developments in silver is giving renewed hope that there may be some truth to that prediction. While there is some debate about the actual cost of producing silver, the consensus cost of production hovers somewhere between the $18 and $22 per oz. mark. With that in mind, the latest trading range for silver is slightly below or at least at the lower end of the production cost spectrum, perhaps suggesting forthcoming price appreciation. That current price level may be unsustainable long-term is further evidenced by some silver mines cutting back on output. The latest example: The world’s largest silver mine, run by BHP Billiton Ltd.'s in Cannington, Australia, announced last week that it was ending production. This should put further downward pressure on supplies, propping prices up. Coupled with a decrease in scrap availability, we may even see a silver shortage.
According to the Silver Institute, physical demand for silver stood at a record 1,081 million ounces last year. The largest component of physical silver demand, industrial applications, dipped by less than 1% to 586.6 million ounces in 2013, to account for 54% of physical silver demand. In the same year, Asia, however experienced a 3% increase in silver industrial demand, led by China, where a continued recovery in the electrical and electronics sector, along with gains in the ethylene oxide industry, took total Asian industrial offtake to a new high. In fact, one of the growing industrial uses for silver is photovoltaic cells in solar panels. As the world seeks alternative forms of energy, this application should continue to grow in importance.

The Silver Price Manipulation Conspiracy
By: GoldSilverWorlds
Ted Butler writes: It’s now going on close to 30 years since I first discovered that silver was manipulated by excessive and concentrated short selling on the COMEX. I remember the exact moment like it occurred yesterday. It’s hard to believe I was in my 30’s when this started. As I’ve explained previously, I was looking for an answer to Izzy Friedman’s question as to how and why silver prices remained so low when the market was in a supply/demand deficit.
Through no great accomplishment on my part, aside from having a futures market background of almost 15 years at the time, it suddenly dawned on me that silver prices were dictated on the COMEX, to the point of price manipulation. Everything that has transpired since has only confirmed to me that silver prices are still manipulated on the COMEX.
That is not to say that there haven’t been many historical developments since 1985 in the silver market; just that none of those events do anything but confirm the ongoing silver manipulation. Not even an extreme price surge from $4 to $49 detracts from the manipulation premise; as how could any commodity jump that much with no big change in supply and demand if it wasn’t artificially priced too low to begin with?
Some, but not all, of the big silver developments to me were the sudden doubling of prices and even faster decline in 1987, the buying of silver by Warren Buffett in 1998 (perhaps due to my writing of metals leasing), the depletion of US Government stockpiles in 2001, 60 years after being the world’s largest holder of silver with nearly 6 billion oz, the introduction of the world’s first silver ETF, SLV, in 2006 and my discovery in 2008 that the rescue of Bear Stearns resulted in its massive concentrated short position being transferred to JPMorgan according to CFTC correspondence.
Other personal highlights were getting the CFTC to investigate the silver market at least three times, although the agency claimed to find no wrongdoing that it could prosecute and seeing so many come to realize that silver is a manipulated market through public data in the COT reports. None of these developments did anything but strengthen my conviction that silver was manipulated on the COMEX in the manner I discovered suddenly in 1985.
Very recently, I’ve had a second epiphany or Eureka moment similar to what hit me 29 years ago, although the circumstances were different and I thought I had already used up my lifetime quota of epiphanies. Whereas I was consciously seeking the answer to a perplexing question nearly three decades ago, this time I came across something I wasn’t looking for. In fact, while I used the word manipulation from the start, I avoided, like the plague, ever referring to the silver manipulation in terms of a conspiracy. For one thing, the term had always seemed derogatory to me and besides, I truly believed the manipulation was limited to a small handful of COMEX insider firms and individual traders. No more is that the case.

It’s now going on close to 30 years since I first discovered that silver was manipulated by excessive and concentrated short selling on the COMEX. I remember the exact moment like it occurred yesterday. It’s hard to believe I was in my 30’s when this started. As I’ve explained previously, I was looking for an answer to Izzy Friedman’s question as to how and why silver prices remained so low when the market was in a supply/demand deficit.
Through no great accomplishment on my part, aside from having a futures market background of almost 15 years at the time, it suddenly dawned on me that silver prices were dictated on the COMEX, to the point of price manipulation. Everything that has transpired since has only confirmed to me that silver prices are still manipulated on the COMEX.
That is not to say that there haven’t been many historical developments since 1985 in the silver market; just that none of those events do anything but confirm the ongoing silver manipulation. Not even an extreme price surge from $4 to $49 detracts from the manipulation premise; as how could any commodity jump that much with no big change in supply and demand if it wasn’t artificially priced too low to begin with?

Follow Futures A silver lining in precious metals?
Silver is often an overlooked precious metal, especially in comparison to the publicity garnered by gold and platinum. The last several months has seen silver trade in a range of $18.75 to $20.25 per oz. While picking tops and bottoms is next to impossible, that range did create some nice trading opportunities for market participants. More importantly perhaps, an extended period of consolidation, such as the one that we have seen in the silver market most recently, often foreshadows a significant breakout to either the up- or downside. With the recent uptick by $4.490 on heavy volume, we may have seen the start of a break-out to the upside, with both technical and fundamental factors in agreement.
Fundamental Factors
In February, I wrote an article on Silver, explaining why silver was poised to become the best performing precious metal of 2014. While to date, this has not materialized, more recent developments in silver is giving renewed hope that there may be some truth to that prediction. While there is some debate about the actual cost of producing silver, the consensus cost of production hovers somewhere between the $18 and $22 per oz. mark. With that in mind, the latest trading range for silver is slightly below or at least at the lower end of the production cost spectrum, perhaps suggesting forthcoming price appreciation. That current price level may be unsustainable long-term is further evidenced by some silver mines cutting back on output. The latest example: The world’s largest silver mine, run by BHP Billiton Ltd.'s in Cannington, Australia, announced last week that it was ending production. This should put further downward pressure on supplies, propping prices up. Coupled with a decrease in scrap availability, we may even see a silver shortage.

Platinum more precious than gold?
By Nicholas Larkin, Bloomberg
Platinum reached an almost 10-month high on signs increased demand from car companies will add to a supply shortage. Gold held near the highest in three months.
Investor holdings in platinum- and palladium-backed funds are at or near records as demand from automakers and a South African mining strike that lasted five months leads to a third successive supply deficit. U.S. auto sales adjusting for seasonal trends accelerated to an annualized pace of 16.98 million in June, the fastest in almost eight years, researcher Autodata Corp. said yesterday.
About 220,000 members of the National Union of Metalworkers of South Africa stopped work yesterday to support their request for pay increases. The protests come after a platinum strike that lasted from January to June. The country is the largest producer of the metal, which is mainly used alongside palladium in car pollution-control devices.
“Investors acknowledge the difficulties that the South African platinum sector faces beyond the resolution,” UBS AG analysts wrote in a report today. “Participants will be keeping an eye out for any signs of tightness in the months ahead.”
Platinum for October delivery added 0.1 percent to $1,516.70 an ounce by 7:38 a.m. on the New York Mercantile Exchange. It reached $1,523, the highest since Sept. 4. The metal for immediate delivery rose 0.2 percent to $1,512.51 in London.

Swapping Gold for Silver
By Dr. Jeffrey Lewis
Primary gold investors versus silver investors are not exactly alike.
Swapping gold for silver is a trade always worth considering, especially when the ratio blows out as wide as it is now. Portability is one obvious reason for the reverse, as long as premiums match up in the transaction. But the main advantage to this kind of swap is that silver almost always tends to cover more ground percentage-wiser and faster when it is allowed to move in a significant way.
When the price ratio of gold to silver extends out into its higher ranges, the relationship tends to be called into question. But even when the ratio approaches 30:1, or even closer to its historic ratios, the relationship should always be at the forefront of investor’s minds. However, it's not as always as simple as the paper price ratio.
A more interesting ratio is the relative buying measured primarily by U.S. mint data. Silver retail coin demand has been much stronger relative to gold, though obviously the overall dollar amounts pale in comparison.
Within the silver demand lies important ratios. We have seen a steady increase in jewelry demand (much larger than coin) relative to industrial demand, which could have the effect of pushing the market back toward shortage very quickly.

The cycle always win in the long run
Patient investors who buy when prices are at the low-point of the cycle always win in the long run. Historically gold prices are cheapest in June.
Patient investors who buy when prices are at the low-point of the cycle always win in the long run. Historically gold prices are cheapest in June. Gold prices are at a low-point in their cycle. Buy while prices are low this month and your reward may come sooner than expected.
Why’s that? Did gold prices not fall $50 in the past week? Yes, gold prices are exceptionally cheap. Bullion billionaire Eric Sprott offers the following bullish thoughts in his latest missive:
1. The Gold Forward Offered Rate remains very low, with extended periods of time in negative territory.
2. Why is Germany’s repatriation of their 674 tonnes of gold taking so long? As of March 2014, only 69 tonnes had made their way back, a pace of less than five tonnes a month. If there is no shortage of gold, why are the US and UK exporting so much gold to Switzerland? (which itself exports most of it to China).
3. According to some estimates, China consumed over 4,800 tonnes of gold in 2013, implying that about 3,600 tonnes were drawn from global stocks (i.e. western vaults) to satisfy demand.
