<p>[QUOTE=&quot;sonlarson, post: 2312642, member: 15488&quot;]As a major buyer of World Silver coins (including Bullion) I learned a long time ago not to make a purchase based on Premium over melt. I buy what I like. Sure it&#039;s fun to make a score now and then but if I only focused on that I would never add to my collection. As it is, I have many coins in my collection that are worth more than what I paid, and much more than melt. As well as some that go the other direction. </p><p><br /></p><p>My best answer to why some regions demand higher premiums is 1) Supply and demand and 2) Quality of the product(milk spots)</p><p><br /></p><p>One way to get ahead is to look at mint and proof sets which have large silver or multiple coins.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>1970 Austria Proof set for $16.50 that has 1.646 oz. of silver.</p><p>1974 Jamaica Proof set for $30.50 with 1.9138 oz. </p><p>1978 Panama Proof set for $100 with 5.6931 oz. </p><p><br /></p><p>Just a few examples.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
