<p>[QUOTE="InfleXion, post: 1287628, member: 29012"]I like to have a little bit of everything silver personally. Numismatic (ASE, Maple, Perth Mint), generic (buffalo, bars), and junk (90% US). I am happy to spend an extra buck or 2 to get ASE's and Maple Leaves instead of generic silver, but when I made my one large purchase I went for generic rounds and bars because it can add up when you get into more ounces. The benefit of the better stuff is that it's easier to sell, and if the price drops you won't be so easily shaken out of your position since your premiums will provide a buffer. If your strategy is to buy and hold regardless I would weigh more heavily in generic. </p><p><br /></p><p> </p><p><br /></p><p> I think these are also at a premium because they are minted by government mints, which provides both widespread recognition and faith in the quality of the product.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
