<p>[QUOTE="TopcatCoin, post: 2660932, member: 22746"]Looks like these are at about $20 per ounce which is not that bad of a premium over spot for a unique RCM issue. Better than the 5 oz ATB bullion in cost per oz over spot for sure. There are of course generic 10 oz bars that will be cheaper/closer to spot. It all depends on what you want to spend your money on. I had a great discussion with a bullion dealer a few years ago. I asked him what he had for silver as close to spot as possible. He pulled out a box from behind the counter that was filled with metallic items of all shapes and sizes, but nothing that resembled a coin or a bar. Think nuts, bolts, and widgets with lots of dings, scratches and dirt. All were stamped .999 though. Awesome deals on that stuff, but I turned him down. I like pretty, shiny bullion that is reasonably priced and may someday have some numismatic/historical premium. TC[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
