<p>[QUOTE="Revi, post: 1628175, member: 42843"]I like the Morgans. I would rather have a coin that may have some numismatic value on top of it's value as a chunk of silver. You are only paying $5 over melt for a common date morgan, so why not have it? I think they hold their value despite downturns in the price of silver also. Silver dollars go down, but not as much as the lower denomination "junk silver". My other favorite is Franklin halves and of course Walking Libs. They used to be in all the "junk silver" I bought, but now they are scarce and going for $22 and $24 which is above melt. Don't be afraid of the US silver. It's really simple nowadays. You'll pay some extra for silver dollars, but the easy way to figure it is if you are buying for around 22 - 24x face value you are doing okay with US pre-64 silver nowadays. Concentrate on the Frankies. You can't go wrong on them if you see them at around $12 a piece.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
