If you say it takes 10 coins to equal an ounce, then the mint is selling these coins @ $1,805/ ounce vs SPOT price of $1,355 = premium of $450&nbsp; ouch!</p><p><br /></p><p>BUT, the uncirculated $5 Eagle is selling for approx. $155 plus $13 S&amp;H = $168 vs the US Mint&#039;s $185.45 for a Proof Eagle in an air-tight, enclosed in a beautiful case for a Premium of only $17.50 more, then the Mints&#039; Proof $5 Eagle&#039;s Premium look very reasonable. </p><p><br /></p><p>The premium on all PM are currently nuts because there is so much demand for the physical metals.</p><p><br /></p><p>The SPOT price on Silver is $22.50 +/- but folks on eBay are paying $30/ ounce for auctions of 3, 4, and 5 coins of recent minatage coins. Which is about the same % premium that the Mint is asking for a Proof coin and case. </p><p><br /></p><p>In today&#039;s market the Mint&#039;s prices look &quot;reasonable&quot; LOL&nbsp; :devil:[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
