<p>[QUOTE=&quot;1970 Silver Art, post: 1566811, member: 18828&quot;]Today is the first day of the Tennessee State Numismatic Society fall coin show and I decided to go today since I took a day off of work. I got there at about 10 minutes before it started and while I waiting for the show to open, I checked my phone to see where the spot prices were at that time. Spot gold was $1695.30 and spot silver was $31.76. I looked around the parking lot and I noticed that it was not as crowded as it was last year but then again, I probably got their earlier than normal. Hard to say. Once the show started, I decided to start looking for silver art bars since that is what I usually do when I go to a coin show. As I was searching for them, I did observe some prices on a select few gold and silver items and they are as follows:</p><p><br /></p><p>.999 generic silver = $32 to $35 - Not bad but I did not see when spot took a nose dive so some of those prices might have gone down.</p><p><br /></p><p>Silver Art Bars - Not many &#039;70&#039;s silver art bars present at this show and most of the ones that I saw where holiday-themed bars that I was not interested in getting. Lowest prices on those were $32.00.</p><p><br /></p><p>10-oz silver bars = $327.00. Silvertowne and Engelhard were the main brands that I saw. Some might have been lower than $327 but I did not check those out.</p><p><br /></p><p>100-oz silver bars = Lowest was spot + 0.50 - Engelhard and JM brands.</p><p><br /></p><p>90% silver = 23X face</p><p><br /></p><p>SAE&#039;s = spot + $5.00</p><p><br /></p><p>Silver Maples = $33.50 to $37.00</p><p><br /></p><p>Engelhard Prospectors = $34.50</p><p><br /></p><p>Peace Dollars = $32.00</p><p><br /></p><p>Overall, the coin show for me was so-so and I did find a couple of silver art bars that I liked and added to my collection but nothing of special interest IMO but got at a decent .999 generic silver price. They did also have some slabbed bullion and coins as well as some Lunar gold and silver.&nbsp; The show continues tomorrow and the last day is Sunday. I plan to go back to the coin show tomorrow. They had plenty of gold there but I got so busy looking for silver art bars that I did not pay attention to some of the prices on some of the gold that was there.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
