<p>[QUOTE=&quot;statequarterguy, post: 957082, member: 21782&quot;]Makes sense if you don&#039;t have at least silver speculators to purchase them.&nbsp; But isn&#039;t there a huge market (especially with sites like eBay) to dump silver coins at close to bullion prices?&nbsp; Just seems like holding silver coins would be the preferred method over bars to hold silver due to potential for numismatic appreciation and less cost to bring them to market.&nbsp; Case in point is all the 1960&#039;s choice to gem bu&#039;s I bought as bullion years ago, now have a significant premium over bullion value.</p><p><br /></p><p>So, unless there is significant demand for silver bars over coins, and there may be even though it makes no sense, hasn&#039;t the industry created an unnecessary and costly step to refine a coin that was worth more before it was refined?</p><p><br /></p><p>Of course, I can see where dumping coins on sites like eBay may cause longer wait times for the cash.&nbsp; But are refiners really quicker to pay, what is the turn around time?&nbsp; And, if it&#039;s faster, is it worth it based on the larger amount one could get for the coins from those that want to hold silver as coins?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
