<p>[QUOTE="saucejon1983, post: 1452132, member: 37932"]Ok, so I am new to buying silver. I have tried to begin looking for pre 1965 quarters as I have been told this is the easiest way to start. I have also been looking at buying silver bars and such. Here is my question: I have looked up the current silver price and done the math (correctly I believe) and determined that at current prices, 1 gram of silver is worth about $1.01, and 1 grain of silver is worth about $0.07. However, on places like Ebay, I am seeing 1 Gram bars selling for $6 - $9, and people are actually buying them. Is this common? Seems like it would be hard to justify silver as an investment if you are buying it at 6x and 9x it's value.</p><p><br /></p><p>I apologize if I am asking out of ignorance, I'm sure I have alot to learn, and I thank you in advance for your input and information.</p><p><br /></p><p>Kyle[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
