Best defense is not telling people or bragging about that you collect bullion and have alot of gold or silver at home. And after that you can hide it on hard to find places in your home. Regular burglars will not look for hidden gold when they break in and will probably just steal what they can see. So if it's hidden well they might not find it.
indeed a common joke, another point about large silver bars when left in the open air after a decade or so they turn black due to oxidation so paint is often not even needed if a large silver bar has been sitting in the open air and never cleaned.
Reading the comments, I don't recall anyone saying to hide or build the gold into the house's foundation. If you are a DIY type of guy, you can construct areas in the floors, walls, ceilings, etc. that look to the naked eye that they are part of the foundation. A thief does not have enough time to tear down your whole house looking for these spots, especially if they are not conspicuous. I read a story recently that a woman bought a house and decided to have the bathroom renovated, when the contractor tore down the walls there were a couple hundred thousand dollars in it from the previous owner (who may of passed away without telling anyone).
Thats what with my stuff. Growing up we rented a house in the 80's and a year after moving out some one bought the house and they found over a couple million dollars in diamonds in one of the walls.
I recently was told by a guy working on my house that he Grew up helping his dad restore houses for rentals....and they found a window weight in an old house of solid gold...he says they found 3 or 4 some silver some gold...he wasn't joking either.
It seems like no one in the comments has heard of millimeter wave imaging at all, let alone that there are man-portable mm-wave imagers. Look it up. Summary: Uses wavelengths in the mm range, which is mid way between visible light and microwaves (radio waves.) To these, electrically insulating materials (brick, plaster, dry wood, cloth) are transparent. Metals and flesh are opaque. Used by police & security services to search/inspect luggage, people, buildings, at a distance. If you are trying to hide something metalic, you have to be aware of this technology.
Too many 'what ifs', including the fact you don't know whose property that is. a year later you come back and the land you buried your wealth is being zoned for a house....
@@galaxytraveler5779 Exactly!!! Unless you buried it on YOUR property and made it very well documented so your descendants are aware of it before selling the property! Still WAY to many what ifs and unknowns! I think we should leave buried treasure to the movies....
One thing to note, that empty space in a speaker box is not unused, especially in higher end audio equipment. Changing the space inside the box may also change the sound of the speaker and in rare cases even cause damage.
Just food for thought, DON'T TELL ANYONE YOU HAVE IT. I would never tell anyone my stash is hidden under the flowers I planted in the old stone well in my front yard. ;-)
My gold was hidden so well and secure that now I can't even find it. I told no one where it was buried and now I have early onset dementia and can no longer remember where I buried that $1,000,000 in gold bullion. LOL
@@brian56 You don't understand. I took that $1,000,000 in gold and created 10 staches of 40 gold coins each. Some in furniture, some buried in the back yard, some buried in the mountains, some on friends property next to that old oak tree, some in the house, some in vaults in the states etc. Now at my advanced age, I have dementia and can't even remember my middle name or the names of my family. I don't even remember if I really did have 400 American Eagles of pure gold. I think I bought them from Ampex (or is it Apmex?) at 10 a year for 40 years. I do remember that one family member that I trusted and confided in, stole the gold from one of my staches and when I confronted her, she pretended that it was all a dream of mine and that I had no gold to steal. How can I prove her wrong and get my gold back? Getting old and losing your mind is what we all dread. Now the family is going to put me in convalescent hospital and fill me up with drugs. They call that place my "Happy Home" where life is beautiful all the time and I´ll be happy to see those nice young men in their clean white coats and they´re coming to take me away ha ha to the happy home with trees and flowers and chirping birds and basket weavers who sit and smile and twiddle their thumbs and toes and they´re coming to take me away, HAAAAAAA I guess all of this that is happening to me is a good reason to leave all you money in the bank for the government to steal for elections and your family to inherit. I should have spent my money on smokes, drugs, booze and broads. Now I have nothing, not even memories.
I was looking at safes and thinking about how safe they really are when there are multiple videos on YT showing how to bypass the security system so I don't want a cheap one and being on a limited income i can't save up thousands so this video REALLY helped me out. It was just the information I needed thanks.
Many people do not know that a 10 digit gps coordinates will get you within 1 square meter anywhere on earth. In the event that the military/government reduces gps signal (makes less specific). This will still get you within 25-100 meters. In the event the gps signal is completely cut off, you must take counter measures. If you are concerned about metal detectors place cache with a pvc pipe. Go to the hardware store and get a box of nails, washer, screws, whatever. Scatter them all around the cache about 10-25 meters. If anyone metal detects they will assume your cache is just more junk washers/screws and will leave the area. However, the metal bits can be used by you to help you find the cache location.
Rent core drill.... drill 8” hole in your carport/ garage slab.... maybe where washer sits. Dig out lil dirt.. insert time capsule filled with bullion, cover with lil dirt.... mix up concrete nice and rich... fill void nicely... put washer back on top, park car over it. It’s safe!
I've been robbed a couple of times and during one of those times the thieves had many hours by which to go through everything and get it all packed up and set in line for a runner to take it out to the vehicles for transport. I eventually walked in on them and luckily they left quickly without an incident. After surveying everything they had taken and going through everything else that wasn't touched, I can tell you from experience they were definitely not interested in anything to do with painting materials and equipment, its as though it didn't exist. So, take that for what it's worth.
Good idea. Seal it good in a couple freezer bags for protection and drop it in the half empty containers of painting supplies. Even if someone takes the time to open the container, they won't want to dip their hand in to investigate further.
@@GamingwithGamerGirls That's the whole point of what the OP was saying. From their unfortunate previous experiences, the thieves never seemed interested to bother searching the painting supplies. Then the second comment created a spot within that tip.
@@szechuanpudding3439 Maybe take some silver bouillon and cast it into paint brushs, paint trays 🎨 , and some other small things and then use silver friendly paint to paint over the shiny silver.
I made a DIY project by replacing the stairway baseboard with decorative moulding. In the back of it I routed a compartment and put in magnets so it can click into place.
Just thought, how about an old empty car battery, they are expected to be heavy and if it looks old and useless you can hide it in plain sight as if you might recycle it someday. It might even have carry handles.
In Sweden batteries are stolen for their lead content. Imagine the grin on the face of the lowlife thief when he finds a great amount of silver instead.
A guy I use to know buried most of his gold off sight at the intersection of two dirt roads near a rocky outcrop and under a large 200 pound rock. The interesting thing is he found a road kill cat on the way to the sight and put it in a shoe box. When he dug the hole 5 foot deep he put the gold at the bottom back filled 3 foot compacted the dirt then put the cat on top. Any robbers would be thrown off thinking it was a grave for a pet kitty.
@@unoriginalhazard Smart man? -He buried *most* of his gold at 1 spot. -He has no control over the spot and buried it in land that belongs to *someone else.* -He told people about it and even shared details (of which at least 1 shares it on the internet, as seen here).
@@AndriesdeHaan none of that matters if we don't know the exact location of the digspot, so yeah I'd say he's smart if he's able to keep his gold hidden while people know about it.
@@unoriginalhazard Well, goodluck to him when one day he will no longer be able to dig it up, because of some changes in that area, or when someone else happens to find it, or when someone else sees him digging it up and points out it's not his land and calls the cops. The moment you bury gold in land that isn't yours, it's no longer yours. It's that simple. Imagine owning a house with some land and a random dude starts digging in your garden, because 5 years ago (before your house was build there) he buried some gold. You expect me to believe most people would just let him do his thing on THEIR land? And since he buried most of his gold at 1 place (while deversifying your wealth is crusial in all cases), he can lose most of his gold in 1 blow (no matter how small the odds are). Everyone with more than half a brain (lets be honest, you know this aswell) knows that it is stupid to hold most of your wealth at 1 place. Defnitely a plce that isn't secure or even worse" *not even owned by yourself.* So for that alone, he isn't a smart man. You have to understand that people buy gold as store of value (longterm). You don't buy gold to trade it a couple days later to buy a TV or something. It's wealth you don't need for years, decades or maybe you will never need it. One uses fiat for everyday spendings. Not gold, silver, etc. Putting it in the ground that belongs to someone else, where you have absolutely no control over, for a long period of time, is not smart. Period. If you honestly think this man did a smart thing (after what I pointed out), no offence, but your definition of "smart" is far from what it should be.
Make a plaster mold of an end wrench maybe 3/4 . Melt your gold pour into mold . Paint black . Cover with nastiest engine oily grit . Put in rusty old toolbox with some rusty oily , greasy old tools 😜
I would NEVER hide things in my speakers... messes with the intended sound curve the manufacturer designed into the speaker cabinet. I store my bullion in a good old-fashioned safe bolted to my concrete slab. By the time a thief got the safe open, I would have shot him at least once with my brand new IWI Tavor TS-12.
If you have enough gold that you need to find multiple places to hid it... I willing to bet you aren't going to just hide it randomly around your house!
When burying, stop at 1ft levels as you move up, scattering nails, scrap metal & bits of old electronics as you fill. Additionally, at 3ft depth, scatter these items in a 10ft radius around the primary hole, with various spots having high density of these targets. The decoys "trash" will fatigue most searches.
Clarification on how my family lost their gold and silver the first week of the great depression from their bank. 9,000 banks closed then the feds went into these banks and popped off the locks of the safe deposit boxes and stole everything in them. My father was a doctor, we had a beautiful home but he lost it all and became poor, my fathers brother starved to death on the road looking for work, I was raised on goat milk in a tiny shack and what you don't know is that over 7,000,000 million Americans died from starvation during the great depression. Hide your Gold and Silver off your property !!!!!!!!!!!
@PearlPerlita Venegas why? it's hysterical bs. There is no proof anyone died from hunger in America. Vast majority of people were rural in those days (75% as of 1940 census) and no one starved in the country and small towns. They had plenty of relief and soup kitchens in the cities. To believe that this guy's adult relative 'starved to death on the road" is preposterous. People took care of each other back then, before we had forced tax confiscation by govt. Speaking of relatives, I had a single, female relative who routinely fed guys who came by her house back then who were willing to help her plant something or fence fence posts, etc. same way all over the country.
@@gigid9606 Do the research. There are plenty of precious metal exchanges in most major cities that will buy and sell your bullions and coins. That is why we have the internet. Once you find an exchange, you can go on yelp and get a rating for their products and services. Learn all you can before acquiring metals.
PVC Pipe works great to stack silver rounds and seal them off perfectly before burying. Also the best trick I ever heard of is throw your bullion in a half used paint can in the garage. Nobody will ever look to steal half used paint cans. Also it is fireproof.
I would never tell anyone that my stash is laid in neat rows on my allotment, and if I did it would be because I was accidently told them I'm about to plant out my seed potatoes that are inside the shed, just left of the door.
@@birage9885, if you buy an American Eagle, you're paying mostly for the gold, but also a little for the fact that it has the backing of a big government. Counterfeiters would be breaking not only forging laws but counterfeiting laws too, so they'd potentially have two groups of law enforcement vying to catch them. Presumably this makes them easier to sell. At least, that's why I've bought almost exclusively American Eagles. But who wants to buy a melted Eagle? Some bullion dealers would, I guess. But I can't imagine you'd get spot for it because it'll have to be melted and purified.
Here's a much better idea. Hide your bullion in your refrigerator behind a severed head. Any burgler who opens your fridge door and finds a severed head is very unlikely to move it to see if there is anything valuable hidden behind.
BumbleTheBard , If you hid your metal gear inside the severed head they couldn't move it. If they freaked out/fainted, you would get to have more heads to stuff. I can't think of a safer way to continue stacking. Keep à head of the game, Kengis Khan stacked millions of heads, accumulated a heck of alot metals too.
@@harryzero1566 He said BEHIND the severed head, not IN the severed head! I wonder whose severed head he has in his fridge? Ex-wife? Or is he related to Jeffery Dahmer?
Baseboards in your closet, most medicine cabinets can be unscrewed, put rounds in a sleeve and pull up a corner of carpet and place under the foam, think about plyboard in attic, bury and pour a slab, ziploc bag at the bottom of kitty litter box with a bit of poo on top, pour some water to make a clump .. don't have a cat? They won't know. Jar of peanut butter .. who cares if it's 10 years old. Secure under fridge, dryer, washer, stove .. they never check. You don't need a big safe guys.
Guys and gals, if you bury or hide PM’s, you MUST have a will describing the locations of your hides. If you die suddenly or fall into a coma, your friends and family lose all of your collection for strangers to find. Make a will and help your family at the end
Just find a secure place to bury a bullion, then write on a piece of paper the longitude and latitude. Make 2 copies of it and hide both to difference places in your home so you won't forget the location you hid your stash.
Always hide inside a safe! Because if you don't and your house catches fire say goodbye to your gold since it would simply melt and probably flushed all over the place by the water coming from the fire department.
Gooner-KIRK make sure it’s a post close to the house, also check for ground water inside post.. you could fill with a lil pea rocks to above ground level, drill a weep hole for drainage... stack tubes on rocks. Boom! NOBODY is interested in fence post... except the fence guy
Yes, thieves are taking notes. They now know they need to spend two weeks searching every nook and cranny if they want to find hidden gold. They probably already know that...
My mad Old uncle years ago put his gold stack inside his coat he never taked it off even slept in it . He was a pow in WW2 maybe that had something to do with it .
Keeping you gold/silver inside is risky due to the risk of fire. Gold and silver coins in melted form and full of contaminants like ash will greatly reduce it's value.
Best place to keep your GOLD and DIAMONDS : Put them behind books on your shelf. THIEVES DON"T LIKE BOOKS! THEY DON'T READ! :D It;s like sunlight to a ghost.
my gold bullion...now worth about a years worth of rent...is safely stored out of my apaprtment in my storage facility, which is secured with alarms and cctv plus the added insurance ( insurance for the locker not the content in particular....because I wouldnt tell anyone that my gold is in there )
jchigheagle That depends a lot on the person using the metal detector and the equipment they’re using. A person using a metal detector might find someone’s PMs and end up losing their life. The best option is to leave other people’s property alone.
After growing cannabis indoors for at least 25 years, I learned that you NEVER tell anyone when you have something of value on your property. Keep it to yourself!!! Once you hit a level that you have hundreds of thousands of dollars, your best bet is to not even have metal or money on your property.
Be careful not to bury your gold and silver on property you don't own.when a friend and I went to Vietnam for 13 months my friend found the perfect place to bury some gold and silver coins, when we made it back home I went with him to help him dig it up. There was a housing project well under way, all the grading had been finished. Be careful.
There was a story of a new homebuyer in Las Vegas who discover gold buried in the backyard, it was worth millions, more than the house he purchase. Someone forgot to take the gold with them when they sold the property. So the new owner claims the gold. lol
Movable object are not a good idea. Obtain a pvc tube of a diameter of your needs. One side sealed. The other a screw on cap. Dig a deep hole near the perimeter of the foundation. With a post hole digger. Or auger. Simple, fireproof, waterproof.
happen to guys robbed a money truck, after spending 12 years in jail, they did not find their money anymore, because a housing development had started...lol
Great idea! I’ve heard all my life that’s where the gold is. At least I will know where to look. Unfortunately, I hardly ever see rainbows anymore where I live. I think I missed the news the day the government ban them. 😂 Gold hunting. Oops I mean Good hunting.
How about this scheme: Buy a cheap safe and position it prominently, but only store a few dollars in it plus some old comic books in plastic sleeves to mimic rare collectors editions. The thief will go straight to the safe but he'll be so disgusted with the contents that he gives up and doesn't search further.
This is nuts. You don't store large quantities of bullion or cash at home or bury it. There are just so many ways that can end badly. But seriously, when the man has a gun held to your daughter's head and tells you to hand it over, well that is what you are going to do. Home storage is also vulnerable to accidents and natural disasters. No form of storage is 100% safe, but dividing your bullion up between two or three different banks and safe deposit boxes with a dirt cheap insurance policy is far lower risk than any home storage plan I can think of. Do bad things sometimes happen to safe deposit boxes? Yes. How frequently? Not enough for me to lose sleep over it. Home invasion/robbery/fire/tornado etc... those odds compared to bank storage are scary.
Those kinds of events do not generally occur as a bolt from the blue event. If you see trouble brewing then you go and pull some or all of your bullion from the bank. So called bank holidays have occurred once in modern American history. As I noted above, there is no 100% safe storage plan. But based on probabilities, spreading your bullion around to several different banks in safe deposit boxes while maybe keeping a small reserve hidden somewhere is the least dangerous method I can think of for retail investors. Those of greater means can arrange for secure storage in bullion depositories outside of their home country. Though that costs a lot more than renting a few SBs.
@Councilman Les Wynan Something to think about: My bank had someone rob someone else's box once. They used to let you in the safe deposit box alone to get into your box and do your business. Not anymore. Someone picked the lock of a safe deposit box and stole someone else's stuff. They never found out who it was. Now an employee stands in the safe with the customer when they need to get into their box. Or you can take your box to a private room, outside the safe. You might want to discuss this with your bank, or it could happen to you.
You rely think the banks are gonna give you your gold back when there's a financial crisis? Just look at Greece when they went through a crisis you could withdraw more than 50 euros a day.
A thief with a gun to your daughter's head? If you're around and ready I hope you wouldn't even allow such a thing to occur. I hope your man enough to take the would be thief or worst out at sight with your firearm before such a scenario would happen. No intruder should ever leave your home alive. Do what you're immune system would do kill all perceived invaders without regret.
THIS: ^^^^^ Most of these options also ignore the fact that you have to be able to get to your gold for it to have value. If the dollar collapses and your gold is buried in concrete, how are you going to get enough of it for a simple transaction to pay for some needed labor?
i guess Im asking the wrong place but does anybody know of a tool to get back into an instagram account..? I somehow lost the account password. I love any help you can give me
We deal with this everyday in our own personal home stashes. 1,000 oz doesn't take up much space, like two men's shoe boxes at most if all coins, much less if bars. Between walls and in spots no one but a house owner (loved one) would know. Leave decoy stashes for worse case where some desperate house thief might score a few oz by ripping a cheap safe from your home. Document any serial numbers on bullion bars if you have them. You could even go as far as putting GPS booby trap of sorts built into packaging that a moron robber would take in a hurry. Home bullion insurance is also now available through our website as well for peace of mind. Not all in one spot, non-bank vaulting makes sense for those living in nations with ridiculous import export tax regimes, or for whales who are getting 6 figures and up in bullion and don't want that all in their homes.
I suggest behind a gun , also its pretty easy to build a microwave weapon or an electrified safe with a secret switch. So hidden safe that will kill anyone who touches it without it being disarmed. Best bet
Ezekiel 7: 19 “‘They will throw their silver into the streets, and their gold will become abhorrent to them. Neither their silver nor their gold will be able to save them in the day of Jehovah’s fury. They will not be satisfied, nor will they fill their stomachs, for it has become a stumbling block causing their error.
Just get a really good safe and bolt it down. Don’t bury your damn Bouillon in the woods. As far as the laws concerned whoever owns the land owns the gold. But besides that it’s ridiculous lol if you must burry it do it in your own yard but I would put it in my walls and dry wall over it before I ever buried it. Just get a good burglary safe and some fireproof bags and thank me later.
Indeed burying bullion is admittedly a bit extreme. We agree walls and hard to pin places within homes is probably best for long term bullion storage. Again, this whole subject is about creativity coupled with common sense. Thanks for the feedback and your comment!
00rphb depending on how much silver you have and what your concerns are (fire, water, theft) your going to what to get atleast a B rated burglary safe with 1/2” thick door (what I have) or a UL rated fire safe
00rphb yeah it’s just a rating that safe companies give for safes that meet certain minimum requirements (1/2 steel door, among other requirements I don’t know off hand) it’s the minimum as far as security that you want to protect your boulion. Stay away from the cheapo amazon or Walmart safes, those aren’t even technically safes. They are considered strong boxes and can be broken into in seconds. It all depends how much money/precious metals you plan on storing. I wouldn’t put $10,000 worth of metals and cash in a $200 safe. The B rated safes are supposed to hold $5000 in value or less. If you plan on holding more than 5 or 6k then I would spend a little more and go for an actual UL-15 rated safe which is a safe that a professional actual tries to crack with power tools and can’t get in for atleast 15 minutes. Which is really really good because trust me, 98% of thieves aren’t professionals and sure as hell aren’t carrying around power tools. Also, this is very important, when you do choose your safe bolt it to the ground! I got the Stealth B rates 14x14x14 it’s a $400 safe on sale for $250 at dean safe and I absolutely love it
00rphb ah well I am from the United States so clearly you guys have different grading methods for your safes over there. When I said 1/2 inch thick steel door, it means that the door is cut from 1/2 inch thick steel, making for a very strong door that is resistant to pry attacks. My safe also has an EMP resistant digital lock and has an automatic re locker so if someone tries to drill into the digital lock the mechanism will fire and the door will automatically lock itself in place. Be ware of digital safes with a backup key entry, as key entries can be picked and it’s basically the safe company admitting to you that their digital lock isn’t very good and will likely give you problems. My safe is actually pretty big and is perfect for my needs, it’s about the size of a really big microwave I guess is the only thing I can compare it to. I’m 6 feet tall and it almost comes up to my knees. I’m not sure about the rating systems over there so I would suggest you look into it and do your own independent research! The safe you linked look pretty good however maybe for the money you might be able to find something better! Nothing wrong with shopping around. I wish you luck in finding a good strong safe that will protect your valuables 😬
Lol, those uploading videos about their gold, can easily be identified by google/TH-cam. Easy for a google/TH-cam employee to find all those holding gold at home.
Hide them in plain sight. Burglars scout every room, then ransack the master bedroom first. Then the living room. Stash the gold in the bathroom. Stash the silver in the kitchen.
RobShutt357 - did you have a stash of anything at that time? Such as gold or silver? If so, who did you tell? Tell nobody friend. Regular burglars don’t do that... you were targeted for the stash.
Your best defense against theft is secrecy tell no one.

I do remember that one family member that I trusted and confided in, stole the gold from one of my staches and when I confronted her, she pretended that it was all a dream of mine and that I had no gold to steal. How can I prove her wrong and get my gold back? Getting old and losing your mind is what we all dread. Now the family is going to put me in convalescent hospital and fill me up with drugs. They call that place my "Happy Home" where life is beautiful all the time and I´ll be happy to see those nice young men in their clean white coats and they´re coming to take me away ha ha to the happy home with trees and flowers and chirping birds and basket weavers who sit and smile and twiddle their thumbs and toes and they´re coming to take me away, HAAAAAAA I guess all of this that is happening to me is a good reason to leave all you money in the bank for the government to steal for elections and your family to inherit. I should have spent my money on smokes, drugs, booze and broads. Now I have nothing, not even memories.
I was looking at safes and thinking about how safe they really are when there are multiple videos on YT showing how to bypass the security system so I don't want a cheap one and being on a limited income i can't save up thousands so this video REALLY helped me out. It was just the information I needed thanks.
I don't have a safe because I think they are safe I have one because my insurance just pays for stolen gold and cash if it was stored in a safe.
Many people do not know that a 10 digit gps coordinates will get you within 1 square meter anywhere on earth. In the event that the military/government reduces gps signal (makes less specific). This will still get you within 25-100 meters. In the event the gps signal is completely cut off, you must take counter measures. If you are concerned about metal detectors place cache with a pvc pipe. Go to the hardware store and get a box of nails, washer, screws, whatever. Scatter them all around the cache about 10-25 meters. If anyone metal detects they will assume your cache is just more junk washers/screws and will leave the area. However, the metal bits can be used by you to help you find the cache location.
Rent core drill.... drill 8” hole in your carport/ garage slab.... maybe where washer sits. Dig out lil dirt.. insert time capsule filled with bullion, cover with lil dirt.... mix up concrete nice and rich... fill void nicely... put washer back on top, park car over it. It’s safe!
A bit inconvenient when you decide you need to sell a bit to get some money.
I've been robbed a couple of times and during one of those times the thieves had many hours by which to go through everything and get it all packed up and set in line for a runner to take it out to the vehicles for transport. I eventually walked in on them and luckily they left quickly without an incident. After surveying everything they had taken and going through everything else that wasn't touched, I can tell you from experience they were definitely not interested in anything to do with painting materials and equipment, its as though it didn't exist. So, take that for what it's worth.
Thanks, now I’m going to hide my silver bars inside my paintbrush.
Good idea. Seal it good in a couple freezer bags for protection and drop it in the half empty containers of painting supplies. Even if someone takes the time to open the container, they won't want to dip their hand in to investigate further.
@@shadowcat314 they will just dump it out if they think there is something in it.
@@GamingwithGamerGirls
That's the whole point of what the OP was saying. From their unfortunate previous experiences, the thieves never seemed interested to bother searching the painting supplies. Then the second comment created a spot within that tip.
@@szechuanpudding3439
Maybe take some silver bouillon and cast it into paint brushs, paint trays 🎨 , and some other small things and then use silver friendly paint to paint over the shiny silver.
I made a DIY project by replacing the stairway baseboard with decorative moulding. In the back of it I routed a compartment and put in magnets so it can click into place.
Just thought, how about an old empty car battery, they are expected to be heavy and if it looks old and useless you can hide it in plain sight as if you might recycle it someday. It might even have carry handles.
pretty good, never hear that one before!
harryzero 156 if you go this route with the car battery, use some baking soda to neutralize the acid. Rinse, repeat, rinse again.......
In Sweden batteries are stolen for their lead content. Imagine the grin on the face of the lowlife thief when he finds a great amount of silver instead.
People steal dead batteries, all the time. Quick $10-$20.
Pretty good scenario
A guy I use to know buried most of his gold off sight at the intersection of two dirt roads near a rocky outcrop and under a large 200 pound rock. The interesting thing is he found a road kill cat on the way to the sight and put it in a shoe box. When he dug the hole 5 foot deep he put the gold at the bottom back filled 3 foot compacted the dirt then put the cat on top. Any robbers would be thrown off thinking it was a grave for a pet kitty.
Smart man.
@@unoriginalhazard Smart man?
-He buried *most* of his gold at 1 spot.
-He has no control over the spot and buried it in land that belongs to *someone else.*
-He told people about it and even shared details (of which at least 1 shares it on the internet, as seen here).
@@AndriesdeHaan none of that matters if we don't know the exact location of the digspot, so yeah I'd say he's smart if he's able to keep his gold hidden while people know about it.
@@unoriginalhazard Well, goodluck to him when one day he will no longer be able to dig it up, because of some changes in that area, or when someone else happens to find it, or when someone else sees him digging it up and points out it's not his land and calls the cops.
The moment you bury gold in land that isn't yours, it's no longer yours. It's that simple.
Imagine owning a house with some land and a random dude starts digging in your garden, because 5 years ago (before your house was build there) he buried some gold.
You expect me to believe most people would just let him do his thing on THEIR land?
And since he buried most of his gold at 1 place (while deversifying your wealth is crusial in all cases), he can lose most of his gold in 1 blow (no matter how small the odds are).
Everyone with more than half a brain (lets be honest, you know this aswell) knows that it is stupid to hold most of your wealth at 1 place. Defnitely a plce that isn't secure or even worse" *not even owned by yourself.*
So for that alone, he isn't a smart man.
You have to understand that people buy gold as store of value (longterm). You don't buy gold to trade it a couple days later to buy a TV or something.
It's wealth you don't need for years, decades or maybe you will never need it. One uses fiat for everyday spendings. Not gold, silver, etc.
Putting it in the ground that belongs to someone else, where you have absolutely no control over, for a long period of time, is not smart. Period.
If you honestly think this man did a smart thing (after what I pointed out), no offence, but your definition of "smart" is far from what it should be.
@@AndriesdeHaan dude, get a life.
Make a plaster mold of an end wrench maybe 3/4 . Melt your gold pour into mold . Paint black . Cover with nastiest engine oily grit . Put in rusty old toolbox with some rusty oily , greasy old tools 😜
and never forget , where you hid the black gold...lol
Tools on top on the list of things stolen in my area. Tweakers love tools.
I've stashed things in speakers for years. But believe me when I say. The best hiding place is in a mason jar in the ground...
I would NEVER hide things in my speakers... messes with the intended sound curve the manufacturer designed into the speaker cabinet. I store my bullion in a good old-fashioned safe bolted to my concrete slab. By the time a thief got the safe open, I would have shot him at least once with my brand new IWI Tavor TS-12.
If you have enough gold that you need to find multiple places to hid it... I willing to bet you aren't going to just hide it randomly around your house!
When burying, stop at 1ft levels as you move up, scattering nails, scrap metal & bits of old electronics as you fill. Additionally, at 3ft depth, scatter these items in a 10ft radius around the primary hole, with various spots having high density of these targets. The decoys "trash" will fatigue most searches.
Clarification on how my family lost their gold and silver the first week of the great depression from their bank. 9,000 banks closed then the feds went into these banks and popped off the locks of the safe deposit boxes and stole everything in them. My father was a doctor, we had a beautiful home but he lost it all and became poor, my fathers brother starved to death on the road looking for work, I was raised on goat milk in a tiny shack and what you don't know is that over 7,000,000 million Americans died from starvation during the great depression. Hide your Gold and Silver off your property !!!!!!!!!!!
sir, that is absolute bs.
@PearlPerlita Venegas why? it's hysterical bs. There is no proof anyone died from hunger in America. Vast majority of people were rural in those days (75% as of 1940 census) and no one starved in the country and small towns. They had plenty of relief and soup kitchens in the cities. To believe that this guy's adult relative 'starved to death on the road" is preposterous. People took care of each other back then, before we had forced tax confiscation by govt.
Speaking of relatives, I had a single, female relative who routinely fed guys who came by her house back then who were willing to help her plant something or fence fence posts, etc. same way all over the country.
R Trinidad I am so sorry that happened to you & your family & thank you so much for sharing! God Bless You sir!!!
when you buy it, and then you go to use it, who is going to cash it in? Can you turn the gold and silver in and get some money for this?
@@gigid9606
Do the research. There are plenty of precious metal exchanges in most major cities that will buy and sell your bullions and coins. That is why we have the internet. Once you find an exchange, you can go on yelp and get a rating for their products and services. Learn all you can before acquiring metals.
PVC Pipe works great to stack silver rounds and seal them off perfectly before burying. Also the best trick I ever heard of is throw your bullion in a half used paint can in the garage. Nobody will ever look to steal half used paint cans. Also it is fireproof.
Lots to worry about when storing gold. Good thing I don't own any. Seems like more stress.
I would never tell anyone that my stash is laid in neat rows on my allotment, and if I did it would be because I was accidently told them I'm about to plant out my seed potatoes that are inside the shed, just left of the door.
😂😂
One of the best PM storage videos you can find here on YT.
important thing to think of when hiding PM's is fire hazard it needs to be stored where it will not melt cause of fire.
So store it all in the basement hidden among your life's accumulation of junk.
Melting doesn't change the value of precious metals, that is what makes it better than paper money.
@@birage9885, if you buy an American Eagle, you're paying mostly for the gold, but also a little for the fact that it has the backing of a big government. Counterfeiters would be breaking not only forging laws but counterfeiting laws too, so they'd potentially have two groups of law enforcement vying to catch them.
Presumably this makes them easier to sell. At least, that's why I've bought almost exclusively American Eagles.
But who wants to buy a melted Eagle? Some bullion dealers would, I guess. But I can't imagine you'd get spot for it because it'll have to be melted and purified.
Here's a much better idea. Hide your bullion in your refrigerator behind a severed head. Any burgler who opens your fridge door and finds a severed head is very unlikely to move it to see if there is anything valuable hidden behind.
BumbleTheBard , If you hid your metal gear inside the severed head they couldn't move it. If they freaked out/fainted, you would get to have more heads to stuff. I can't think of a safer way to continue stacking. Keep à head of the game, Kengis Khan stacked millions of heads, accumulated a heck of alot metals too.
@@harryzero1566 He said BEHIND the severed head, not IN the severed head!

Step #1. Don’t start a TH-cam channel advertising to millions of people that you have money stashed in your house.
Baseboards in your closet, most medicine cabinets can be unscrewed, put rounds in a sleeve and pull up a corner of carpet and place under the foam, think about plyboard in attic, bury and pour a slab, ziploc bag at the bottom of kitty litter box with a bit of poo on top, pour some water to make a clump .. don't have a cat? They won't know. Jar of peanut butter .. who cares if it's 10 years old. Secure under fridge, dryer, washer, stove .. they never check. You don't need a big safe guys.
Next time I’ll check 👀
Guys and gals, if you bury or hide PM’s, you MUST have a will describing the locations of your hides. If you die suddenly or fall into a coma, your friends and family lose all of your collection for strangers to find. Make a will and help your family at the end
New to this. I'm curious why a home safe bolted into the wall or floor isn't mentioned.
Well, if they break in when you are NOT home..... and they find a safe bolted to the floor..... they will just come back when you ARE home!

I like the kick board idea!
Yea, just be careful if you ever have plumbers or other service people in the house.
Not only stackers came to watch this video that is all I know.
Just find a secure place to bury a bullion, then write on a piece of paper the longitude and latitude. Make 2 copies of it and hide both to difference places in your home so you won't forget the location you hid your stash.
Dig a holl, put into ground. PVC pipe can be used to make a tube, making it water proof.
Always hide inside a safe! Because if you don't and your house catches fire say goodbye to your gold since it would simply melt and probably flushed all over the place by the water coming from the fire department.
True enough for numismatic gold. But gold and silver ingots are relatively fire-proof. They'll just need to be re-poured.
House fires very seldom get above 815 C. Melting for gold 1,064 C.
"flushed all over the place by the water".... ummmmm no that's not how it works.
Insured inside my gun safe. In safety deposit box. At Texas' new Gold depository newly built 10 minutes from my house. Yep, I'm not too worried
steel pipe fence posts are a good place...semi permanent, hollow, capped, and the caps can be tack welded...
Thanks I'll check.them now lol
@@KirksCORNER-1983 careful....if the caps come off easily, there is nothing in there...
Gooner-KIRK make sure it’s a post close to the house, also check for ground water inside post.. you could fill with a lil pea rocks to above ground level, drill a weep hole for drainage... stack tubes on rocks. Boom! NOBODY is interested in fence post... except the fence guy
Oh and all thiefs and burglars will find this very interesting.
Yea they taking notes
Yes, thieves are taking notes. They now know they need to spend two weeks searching every nook and cranny if they want to find hidden gold. They probably already know that...
My toxic trait would be burying my coins and then digging them out because I want to touch and hold them 😂
I liked the video, gave me things to think about. cheers
My mad Old uncle years ago put his gold stack inside his coat he never taked it off even slept in it . He was a pow in WW2 maybe that had something to do with it .
Keeping you gold/silver inside is risky due to the risk of fire. Gold and silver coins in melted form and full of contaminants like ash will greatly reduce it's value.

Metal detectors can easily find all your hiding places.
jchigheagle That depends a lot on the person using the metal detector and the equipment they’re using. A person using a metal detector might find someone’s PMs and end up losing their life.
The best option is to leave other people’s property alone.
But if you hide it among boxes of old tools or metal junk, the metal detector is worthless.
Maybe outside I. The dirt but no In a house there are too many nails and other metal objects to pick up any gold or silver
A basement sealed with concrete and or welded metal. Bury it under a tree, 10 ft deep, on your own property. Quite an interesting topic.
This is one problem , I will never have !! You can't hide something you don't have or could never afford !!🤣
Great ideas 💡 Liked and subbed 😁
Thx, all the best to you and your YT channel.
Simple... SIMPLY DON'T TELL a SOUL!! you'll be fine.
After growing cannabis indoors for at least 25 years, I learned that you NEVER tell anyone when you have something of value on your property. Keep it to yourself!!! Once you hit a level that you have hundreds of thousands of dollars, your best bet is to not even have metal or money on your property.
Be careful not to bury your gold and silver on property you don't own.when a friend and I went to Vietnam for 13 months my friend found the perfect place to bury some gold and silver coins, when we made it back home I went with him to help him dig it up. There was a housing project well under way, all the grading had been finished. Be careful.
There was a story of a new homebuyer in Las Vegas who discover gold buried in the backyard, it was worth millions, more than the house he purchase. Someone forgot to take the gold with them when they sold the property. So the new owner claims the gold. lol

How about this scheme: Buy a cheap safe and position it prominently, but only store a few dollars in it plus some old comic books in plastic sleeves to mimic rare collectors editions.

This is nuts. You don't store large quantities of bullion or cash at home or bury it. There are just so many ways that can end badly. But seriously, when the man has a gun held to your daughter's head and tells you to hand it over, well that is what you are going to do. Home storage is also vulnerable to accidents and natural disasters. No form of storage is 100% safe, but dividing your bullion up between two or three different banks and safe deposit boxes with a dirt cheap insurance policy is far lower risk than any home storage plan I can think of. Do bad things sometimes happen to safe deposit boxes? Yes. How frequently? Not enough for me to lose sleep over it. Home invasion/robbery/fire/tornado etc... those odds compared to bank storage are scary.
Those kinds of events do not generally occur as a bolt from the blue event. If you see trouble brewing then you go and pull some or all of your bullion from the bank. So called bank holidays have occurred once in modern American history. As I noted above, there is no 100% safe storage plan. But based on probabilities, spreading your bullion around to several different banks in safe deposit boxes while maybe keeping a small reserve hidden somewhere is the least dangerous method I can think of for retail investors. Those of greater means can arrange for secure storage in bullion depositories outside of their home country. Though that costs a lot more than renting a few SBs.
@Councilman Les Wynan Something to think about: My bank had someone rob someone else's box once. They used to let you in the safe deposit box alone to get into your box and do your business. Not anymore. Someone picked the lock of a safe deposit box and stole someone else's stuff. They never found out who it was. Now an employee stands in the safe with the customer when they need to get into their box. Or you can take your box to a private room, outside the safe.
You might want to discuss this with your bank, or it could happen to you.
You rely think the banks are gonna give you your gold back when there's a financial crisis? Just look at Greece when they went through a crisis you could withdraw more than 50 euros a day.
A thief with a gun to your daughter's head? If you're around and ready I hope you wouldn't even allow such a thing to occur. I hope your man enough to take the would be thief or worst out at sight with your firearm before such a scenario would happen. No intruder should ever leave your home alive. Do what you're immune system would do kill all perceived invaders without regret.
THIS: ^^^^^ Most of these options also ignore the fact that you have to be able to get to your gold for it to have value. If the dollar collapses and your gold is buried in concrete, how are you going to get enough of it for a simple transaction to pay for some needed labor?

@Chandler Moshe instablaster :)
Some of those areas are good, but what if we start accumulating 250, 500, 1000 oz. how would you deal with this volume in hiding it ?
We deal with this everyday in our own personal home stashes. 1,000 oz doesn't take up much space, like two men's shoe boxes at most if all coins, much less if bars. Between walls and in spots no one but a house owner (loved one) would know. Leave decoy stashes for worse case where some desperate house thief might score a few oz by ripping a cheap safe from your home. Document any serial numbers on bullion bars if you have them. You could even go as far as putting GPS booby trap of sorts built into packaging that a moron robber would take in a hurry. Home bullion insurance is also now available through our website as well for peace of mind. Not all in one spot, non-bank vaulting makes sense for those living in nations with ridiculous import export tax regimes, or for whales who are getting 6 figures and up in bullion and don't want that all in their homes.
Another one is making the knobs, handles, and other metallic objects out of your valuable metals, and don’t forget to paint them as well,
That is so ridiculous
None of those ideas work when your house is on fire. The cheapest option is a fire box.
I buried mine under foundation of my exes new husband former friend house! You just need a bulldozer to access! Lol

Just get a good burglary safe and some fireproof bags and thank me later.
Indeed burying bullion is admittedly a bit extreme. We agree walls and hard to pin places within homes is probably best for long term bullion storage. Again, this whole subject is about creativity coupled with common sense. Thanks for the feedback and your comment!
SD Bullion oh no problem, I probably should of mentioned that I really enjoyed the video! It was well put together and it gave me a lot to think about
00rphb depending on how much silver you have and what your concerns are (fire, water, theft) your going to what to get atleast a B rated burglary safe with 1/2” thick door (what I have) or a UL rated fire safe
00rphb yeah it’s just a rating that safe companies give for safes that meet certain minimum requirements (1/2 steel door, among other requirements I don’t know off hand) it’s the minimum as far as security that you want to protect your boulion. Stay away from the cheapo amazon or Walmart safes, those aren’t even technically safes. They are considered strong boxes and can be broken into in seconds. It all depends how much money/precious metals you plan on storing. I wouldn’t put $10,000 worth of metals and cash in a $200 safe. The B rated safes are supposed to hold $5000 in value or less. If you plan on holding more than 5 or 6k then I would spend a little more and go for an actual UL-15 rated safe which is a safe that a professional actual tries to crack with power tools and can’t get in for atleast 15 minutes. Which is really really good because trust me, 98% of thieves aren’t professionals and sure as hell aren’t carrying around power tools. Also, this is very important, when you do choose your safe bolt it to the ground! I got the Stealth B rates 14x14x14 it’s a $400 safe on sale for $250 at dean safe and I absolutely love it
00rphb ah well I am from the United States so clearly you guys have different grading methods for your safes over there. When I said 1/2 inch thick steel door, it means that the door is cut from 1/2 inch thick steel, making for a very strong door that is resistant to pry attacks. My safe also has an EMP resistant digital lock and has an automatic re locker so if someone tries to drill into the digital lock the mechanism will fire and the door will automatically lock itself in place. Be ware of digital safes with a backup key entry, as key entries can be picked and it’s basically the safe company admitting to you that their digital lock isn’t very good and will likely give you problems. My safe is actually pretty big and is perfect for my needs, it’s about the size of a really big microwave I guess is the only thing I can compare it to. I’m 6 feet tall and it almost comes up to my knees. I’m not sure about the rating systems over there so I would suggest you look into it and do your own independent research! The safe you linked look pretty good however maybe for the money you might be able to find something better! Nothing wrong with shopping around. I wish you luck in finding a good strong safe that will protect your valuables 😬
I had my gold dug in underneath a swing on my property 🤠
Great advice!
How does any of this help in a fire? Will it just out last the fire and just melt in a blob where you hide it?
A fire safe will keep your precious metals intact. Even if it melts, it's still contained. God bless and stay safe and healthy!👌

Lol, those uploading videos about their gold, can easily be identified by google/TH-cam. Easy for a google/TH-cam employee to find all those holding gold at home.

Everything said here applies to Bitcoin too. Your keys need to be as physically secure as your gold.
DO NOT tell anyone about your precious metals holdings. Burglars can't steal what they don't know about. That goes for any other financial holdings.
Wrap in ground beef and freeze
Imagine a homeless man breaks in and he wasn't looking for gold but food and he stole your ground beef. lol

That works too
Hide them in plain sight. Burglars scout every room, then ransack the master bedroom first. Then the living room. Stash the gold in the bathroom. Stash the silver in the kitchen.
Thanks for your input MrDenizen
Lots of moisture in the bathroom. Make sure your metals stay dry!
When my house was ransacked they pried the faux drawer covers off the under sink in the master bath looking for stash.
RobShutt357 - did you have a stash of anything at that time? Such as gold or silver? If so, who did you tell? Tell nobody friend. Regular burglars don’t do that... you were targeted for the stash.
