<p>[QUOTE=&quot;-jeffB, post: 1169274, member: 27832&quot;]Some don&#039;t have access to honest B&amp;M dealers.

Melt value based on that Friday&#039;s close was just over 25x face. There were a couple of folks offering 24.5x face, and one offering 25x; later in the day, the one offering 25x upped it to 26x, which was <i>particularly</i> cool because another dealer was <i>selling</i> small bags of 90% ($10 FV) for 25x face.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;ve been trying to buy at 20% or more behind melt, although I&#039;ll go up to melt for a lot that promises some additional numismatic value. That way, even if I need to sell on eBay, I still break even -- as long as silver doesn&#039;t drop, of course. But if I can make it to the July local show, I&#039;m going to be dumping quite a lot there.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
