Hi, I’m The Silver Maniac, and yes, I’m a little bit crazy about silver.
I bought my first silver in 1984 and I’ve been stacking ever since. I’ve also spent 33 years working in the silver industry, so I’ve seen this market from both sides of the counter: as a buyer building my own stack, and as someone who works with silver every day.
Why I started this blog. Most silver websites are either dealers trying to sell you something or doom-and-gloom channels trying to scare you. I wanted a place that’s just honest: how I think about silver, what I’ve gotten wrong, all in plain English.
What you’ll find here
– Beginner guides that skip the jargon
– Plain-English buying guides and silver market updates
– Honest dealer and gear recommendations (and when to skip them)
– Coin stories, junk-silver hunts, and the fun side of collecting
What you won’t find: hype, price predictions, or pressure.
