There are a lot of cool things in the precious metal market right now. However, money isn't always the limiting factor when it comes to purchasing. Often, I find myself not being able to buy the items I want due to supply. That's a huge bummer. Would I pay a higher premium to be able to obtain them? Up to a certain point, but not too much.
Here is a list of stuff I would love to get my hands on in the near future. The images here are from the APMEX website. It's my go-to place to shop for precious metals besides my local vendor.

This is an actual silver bar fashioned as the American $100 bill. It comes with a certificate of authentication (CoA). The hilarious thing is, I bet I would have to pay at least $100 for this piece unless the silver price plummets. The last time I saw it available, I wasn't fast enough to snatch it. Dang latency.

I'm a US citizen. I am obligated to have something in the image of our flag. I don't know what's with the strange obsession Americans have with their flag. All I know is that I am not immune from its charm. Queue some "voice to skull" conspiracy.

Why would I want a silver bullet? What, you've never heard of werewolves before? There are crazy stuff in the mountains, especially in the high desert. Nah, I kid. It's fun and decorative. I'm not crazy enough to try to shoot this out of my gun. That would be insanity, and it's not about the expensive bullets either. It would most likely damage my firearms instead. I'm debating if I would want a single one or bite the bullet (pun) and buy an entire box of them.
Speaking of bullets, can't go for rifle rounds without some shotgun rounds.

Haha, this is starting to look like the most American silver wishlist ever! It's filled with nationalistic memorabilia. In all seriousness, they do seem like fun pieces to have. Sometimes, you want to switch it up instead of having the boring, standard, one-ounce bars.
Will I ever get my hands on one of them? We shall see. I haven't had much luck recently. I'll let you know if I managed to nab some of them.
