I'm located in WA state and looking to start stacking of some sort. Looking for recommendations on ratio's for overall monthly investment, businesses to buy from, and the amount of precious metals (%) people maintain.

It's hard to find. Ebay has some options but it goes for over spot price

Bought from here several times.
The transaction costs of precious metals are high. I bought plantium, palladium, gold and silver starting in 2013.
I'm basically even at this point.
This is basically a disaster hedge. But it's not doing very well in disasters either.

I maintain zero %
Had a coworker that bought it from a pawn shop on lunch break. Every few weeks we'd have to stop so he could buy a.bit. He always had to find someone to watch his gold stash while deployed because he was afraid his house would get robbed. Never had to do that with my stock portfolio and index funds and they've out performed metals.

you are better off trading gold futures, buy gold mining stocks or a gold etf than holding physical gold.

An under underperforming asset with high transaction costs and relatively illiquid if you need money fast and it hasn't even outpaced the dollar during this inflationary period. What's not to love?
Do you have a hypothesis or just like holding a physical asset?

A good Local coin shop can’t be beat. APMEX and most bullion sites will kill you on premiums. I bought some from a dealer that posts some damn good deals on his Instagram account, the account name is stephensbestloot. I’ve also bought some 10 oz rounds from silverback precious metals with decent premiums. I own way too much at this point but it’s a weird hobby/investment
