Way too many people start off saying to themselves "I am buying pm as an investment", then start overpaying for pretty coins. You have to know WHY you wish to buy silver, and stick with that philosophy. If you are buying for a silver investment, most of those coins TH listed are horrible choices, as the premiums are simply way too high. Also, if buying for silver investment, milk spots are irrelevant, since these things will get melted in the future anyway. </p><p><br /></p><p>Just be careful and know WHY you are buying.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
