<p>[QUOTE=&quot;yakpoo, post: 1019704, member: 18157&quot;]I &quot;discovered&quot; eBay in 2005 when I inherited some coins and wanted to see what people were paying. At that time silver was around $6-$7 per Oz.</p><p><br /></p><p>I noticed that I could buy uncirculated rolls of dimes, quarters, and halves (mostly OBW) dated mid-late 50&#039;s and early 60&#039;s at &quot;melt&quot;. I also noticed that I could buy partial sets of sterling silver flatware for way under melt. I scooped up as many of those deals as I could afford!</p><p><br /></p><p>The sterling deals dried up a couple of years ago, but there still seems to be some deals with coins. The melt price (@ $24/Oz) for a roll of uncirculated silver quarters/halves is about $175...and $85 for dimes. I suspect you can still find Unc rolls from the early &#039;60s for that.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;ve tripled my money on the rolls I bought in 2005 and love searching them when I&#039;m bored. I found over forty (40) Type-B reverse Washington quarters so far. Most of the coins are MS63/MS64...every once in a while I&#039;ll get an MS65.</p><p><br /></p><p>Anyway, that&#039;s how I like to buy silver. I like PMs that have potential &quot;alternate&quot; value...not just a PM bar.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
