<p>[QUOTE="InfleXion, post: 1696478, member: 29012"]ASE is probably the most "staple" silver investment there is if you are in the US, and even elsewhere. But as was pointed out the premiums are very high right now due to extreme demand so you will get a lot more bang for your buck by buying generic from a mint that produces bars and rounds that can pass on much lower premiums (and long delivery delays). </p><p><br /></p><p>If you are buying small amounts here and there, and if you can find them at your local coin shop for a decent premium, I like ASE's the best. Government minted silver means they command more trust, they are well recognized, there are standards that can be verified and it's more difficult to successfully counterfeit a government coin (plus heftier punishment) than a generic round or bar. I also like junk silver but the premiums on that are high right now too. Usually that is around spot and can be had for cheap premiums.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
