<p>[QUOTE="modernnow, post: 782145, member: 22587"]If your buying silver as an investment you want to buy the highest quality as cheap as possible. I would buy marked or tested scrap for $1-2 ALL DAY! Some of you guys wouldn't? On ebay marked sterling can sell for as much as 90% of spot for silver content and collectible sterling in NR MT can sell for 500% of it's content. So why not sell that way?</p><p><br /></p><p>Coins are usually overvalued by collectors so that means many coins as a PM are a BAD INVESTMENT. If you are investing in a metal why would you want to pay 30%-40% over spot for that metal? Also it is illegal to melt U.S. coins so you never really have that option. I do buy .999 silver bullion but only at 10% over spot Including tax and shipping. Bullion and coins may be seen as the safest way to invest but in my opinion certainly not the most profitable.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
