<p>[QUOTE="krispy, post: 874192, member: 19065"]Silver is in very high demand again this year compared to gold. This <a href="http://mintnewsblog.blogspot.com/2010/04/2010-gold-buffalo-bullion-coins.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://mintnewsblog.blogspot.com/2010/04/2010-gold-buffalo-bullion-coins.html" rel="nofollow">article</a> based on Mint sales seems to support this. There are a lot of folks that feel silver can and will move and gain agressively in the near future years but there's no way of knowing when. I recall buying generic round and bars between $6-$9/oz. in the mid-1980s. Takes a long time to maintain a base at a price double what it may be today, and in between there are a lot of quick and volatile ups and downs. Modern silver commems with such high mintages rarely increase in numismatic value greater than spot price of PMs over the long haul. Many bullion dealers like <a href="http://www.providentmetals.com/us-mint-commemorative-silver-dollars-1983-1993.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.providentmetals.com/us-mint-commemorative-silver-dollars-1983-1993.html" rel="nofollow">Provident Metals </a>and <a href="http://www.apmex.com/Product/14067/Silver_US_Mint_Commemorative_Silver_Dollars.aspx" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.apmex.com/Product/14067/Silver_US_Mint_Commemorative_Silver_Dollars.aspx" rel="nofollow">Apmex sell older silver commems</a>, usually BU or lesser quality raw, for a very small price over spot.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
