<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ThinnPikkins, post: 2270778, member: 32346&quot;]I was @ my local coin shop a few months ago to buy some silver.&nbsp; I ended up buying about 100ozs of newly stamped bars. As we were tallying the total, I noticed 2 older bars in his display. I knew some of the older bars carried a premium on ebay so I told him to give me them 2 also. I came home and looked on ebay and seen that they were selling for about 250-275 with current prices as of now. Although you have people asking 6-700 on ebay for these bars, I do not think they are worth that type of money. Needless to say, if I locate anymore of these older bars I will be buying them locally. Coin shops around here dump them off for little premiums. Myself personally, would never pay premiums for bars like this or older bars period. I believe its all silver. But then again I collect coins not bullion, which some people do. I buy silver for silver value. A typical conversation with me and a dealer goes something like this.</p><p><br /></p><p>Dealer: how can I help you?</p><p><br /></p><p>Me: Im looking to purchase a few ounces of silver.</p><p><br /></p><p>Dealer: Anything specific you are looking for?</p><p><br /></p><p>Me: yes, the silver with the lowest mark up will do!</p><p><br /></p><p>I think I bought these .75oz over spot. The weight varies, they come a little over 10oz</p><p>[ATTACH=full]452374[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]452375[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
