<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Rono, post: 1598791, member: 6492&quot;]Hi Mikey,</p><p><br /></p><p>There are several things to consider and no really right answer.&nbsp; First, lets talk premium.&nbsp; Right now I&#039;m looking at 4.6% for 90% silver coin, 42% for silver dollars, 12.4% for ASEs and 7.8% for leafs and a 1 oz. round at 8.3%.&nbsp; Note that volume buys will always bring down the premium.&nbsp;&nbsp; Most often you want to buy with the smallest premium unless you have a specific objective or goal.&nbsp; Also, if you&#039;re going to want to sell them, you might stick with name brand stuff like ASEs.&nbsp; You can sell ASEs at McDonalds, but it can be tough selling Weasel Mint and Emporium rounds.&nbsp; As mentioned above, for barter type exchanges, you want mixed US 90%.&nbsp;&nbsp; If you want to enjoy some aspect of coin collecting, you can go for present day and historical silver crowns.&nbsp;&nbsp; Some very gorgeous stuff out there.&nbsp;&nbsp; If you simply want to amass vast quantities of bullion, after considering storage, you can go with larger ingots.&nbsp; That 100 oz. ingot painted black makes a great door stop.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>In my case, I&#039;ve got a mix of stuff.&nbsp; I have ASE&#039;s by the tube, name brand 1 and 10 oz ingots, prospectors by the tube, and a few tubes of junk rounds.&nbsp; I&#039;m also collecting the annual issues from the major bullion issuing contries - pandas, koalas, kooks, libertads, leafs, philharmonics, etc.&nbsp; And I like the older silver crowns also.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Oh, and BTW, all dealers have a wholesale (buy) price and retail (sell) price.&nbsp; It&#039;s how all trade occurs and the difference is the vigorish. </p><p><br /></p><p>peace,</p><p><br /></p><p>rono[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
