<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Slider, post: 1705966, member: 44205&quot;]This is true, and foreign silver can even be purchased on ebay at or near melt.&nbsp; In fact, I have a friend who currently buys foreign gold near melt prices.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>For anyone who wants to buy ASE&#039;s right now but can&#039;t stomach the inflated margins, their alternative to hedge against the rising price of silver is to buy foreign or junk (when junk can be found) US coin silver as a way to park their money in the metal.&nbsp; Should the price of silver rise, you&#039;re gains are built into the existing metal. When the margins on ASE&#039;s do finally come down (and they will), you can convert your spot priced metal into ASE&#039;s for the new, smaller margin, regardless of the current spot value of the metal.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>The only way that hedge doesn&#039;t work is if you believe that the new margins on eagles are a permanent change and are here to stay. That is doubtful, considering that they&#039;ve minted about a half billion of them and show no signs of stopping.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
