    Should I pay the premium on Silver Eagles or just buy junk silver?

    Depends on the premium . I feel $2 is worth it , but 90% US silver is probably the better way to go with lower premiums .

    If you intend on selling it when the price goes up a few $$, then junk is OK. If you want to hold it until the near end of mankind, pay the premium.

    The basic question is are you collecting or investing.
    Collecting - go with the Silver Eagles
    Investing #1 - go with .999 bars and rounds
    Investing #2 - go with junk silver WITH the knowledge that it's most likely NOT .999

    All good advice. Personally, I do both and I do as much as I can afford. :)
