<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Texas John, post: 1171438, member: 25813&quot;]I sold 90% silver coins for twenty times face in 1980, as silver briefly moved up to $50 an ounce. That was more than 40% below the actual intrinsic value. Of course, the only place I could sell was to an itinerant dealer who&#039;d set up shop in a local department store.</p><p><br /></p><p>As I&#039;ve been selling silver this year, I use my iPhone to get a real time quote from APMEX, which I use as a basis to negotiate with my local buyer, who&#039;s had a shop for over twenty years. APMEX consistently offers around 95% of the intrinsic value for bag quantities of 90% coins. My local guy and I talk, and he usually gets within 5% of that. If he didn&#039;t, I&#039;d take the APMEX offer. If APMEX starts getting unreasonable with its offers, there&#039;s always KITCO.</p><p><br /></p><p>Times change.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
