$2.45 over spot for British silver coins. Not great but best price I've seen recently for silver coins.

Well, I will most likely try to find some at least. Among other items.

just keep an eye out for deals and pick em up a bit at a time. we got a few guys on this thread who always find ebay deals to post up.

The premium that really matters is he buy/sell spread. Might be worth checking "buy" prices from the big names.

Big rallies are always characteristic of bear markets. Be patient, there's no bottom without capitulation.

If I buy those at $2.45 over spot will you buy them from me at $4 over spot? If so then that would be a good investment

The usual price is $3-4 over spot, I don't know if you're gonna find silver coins at $1-$1.50 over spot, especially as the spot price drops.

Silver's not a good short term investment anyway. When it goes back to $60 you won't care if you paid $17.50 or $17.

I'm putting a hold on high-premium silver for the time being. Generics and bars only.

Me too. I'm having a hard time seeing the value in coins. I know they are more trusted, but for $10 anyone can get a silver purity test kit that will at least give confidence it is above 90%.

Maybe an NES "group buy" on several hundred pieces of silver. Get the good price, then divvy them up.

Some of those things on APMEX look like play money. How would someone trust this stuff; a) as collectibles/investments and b) in SHTF scenario? If it is .999 purity, does it matter if it has an eagle or a leaf or a rose on it? Are there any which are better or worse?

I don't know how big these are. How do the sizes compare on the 1g, 5g, 1/2 oz, etc.? I wish there was a size comparison thing.

Unfortunately, these items are not available. They may have been purchased already or the item listing has expired.

I guess someone doesn't want me to invest in silver today

works for me too.

 

[the_shootist]

I've run into this before...not sure why it happens to me....someone doesn't like me

 

[the_shootist]

Had to sign out of eBay and check out as a guest to make it available to me....who knows???

 

[Varmint]

Anyone know why silver dropped 3% in a few minutes at 11:45? Gold dropped too.

 

[413dan]

worked for me! thanks for posting varmint

Because I just bought a whole bunch of it. Of course, it was going to devalue right in front of my eyes....

Posting this cause this is the first roll of silver coins I've seen that qualify for Ebay bucks. Unfortunately it's only 2% at the moment. Still not terrible at $2.50 over spot.

Damn, I was sitting in the dealership and missed this deal. Thanks for posting anyways!

JM still has the Brittannias on sale for $2.49 over spot. This deal's been going for about two weeks. They must not be very popular.

I ordered some and they came yesterday and today. I don't think they look as good as Maples.

These Silvertowne buffalo rounds are even cheaper. $1.25 over spot if you order 50 rounds.

Thanks for the link! It was .75 over spot if you bought enough. Good deal.
