<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Gdub76, post: 13175220, member: 143792&quot;]The big metal dealers are looking to capitalize on people&#039;s ignorance. Sellers ALWAYS ask for more than spot price and buyers ALWAYS offer less. Spot price, or &#039;melt value&#039; if you like, is nothing more than a benchmark for the market. My humble opinion is that older gold and silver money (coinage) has more value than spot price and is more likely to hold it&#039;s value over time. Now that all Morgan Dollars are more than 100 yrs old, even allot of the worn coins sell for more than spot price.</p><p>Storage is another consideration. $1800 of 24K gold takes up allot less space than $1800 of pure silver. Silver Eaqles and Canadian Maple Leaf&#039;s are guaranteed to be 100% pure, so they cost more. Secondary market coins and bars are buyer beware... Shop the online auctions to get a feel for prices and look for the occasional good deal. Don&#039;t forget to include the Buyer Premium in your costs.</p><p>Make sure you do ALLOT of research before you invest your hard earned cash!</p><p>Remember, bullion investing is always loooong term. Good luck!![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
