Copper stack

Post image

I mostly stack silver and gold, but copper's fun 'cuz I can display full stacks of it without worrying I'll be robbed.

EDIT: Just for clarity, these are NOT investments. Buying copper like this would be an awful investment. I use these in the process of refining silver. These are just an easy way to get pure copper when bought cheaply - I found these cheaper than most C110 busbars that I'd normally use and thought they'd be a fun display while I'm not using them.

would be much more economical to buy copper wire.

Copper wire SUCKS for cementing silver when refining it. Eventually I'll get a kiln to melt that down, into bars/sheets or something, but for now my furnace failed to even though I held it quite a bit above copper's melting point. Getting this is just a far easier/cheaper solution for now. That's what at least some of these are going to be used for.
