<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Cloudsweeper99, post: 86183, member: 3011&quot;]Bonedigger, you are correct.&nbsp; Silver is used whenever performance is an issue because it is the best conductor of electricity of all metals.&nbsp; You don&#039;t need it in your toaster, but it is critical in something like a cruise missle, which contains a lot of silver.&nbsp; Silver at present prices will be considered a gift at some point [but it&#039;s easier to know what will happen than when] because usage is much much greater than production with the difference coming out of shrinking inventories.&nbsp; I tend to think the silver maple leafs are the best buy in silver because the sell for about the same as the silver eagles but also have a $5 face value Canadian.&nbsp; Basically, if you are talking about investment there are two categories of coins that seem to be best [to me].&nbsp; Any gold or silver coin selling close to bullion value, and any coin that is scarce/rare in all grade levels.&nbsp; But as Speedy pointed out, the key dates might be a bit high priced now, so the bullion looks better and requires almost no expertise to buy.&nbsp; Other types of coins selling strictly on numismatic value will probably do better, but they require an enormous amount of expertise to profit from.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
