[QUOTE="-jeffB, post: 1466978, member: 27832"]Best by percentage? Probably the seven "unknown metal" rounds I got for $51 (from our good friends at THR), which turned out to be .999 silver. Not a bad deal for 7 troy ounces. Best by straight dollar discount is probably the 1 oz AGE I got for $835 shipped, when gold was around $1350. I've had quite a few other goodies, though, some through pure luck -- like the 1964 proof set I snagged because it was listed with a BIN below melt, and it turned out to be Accented Hair. A pile of mostly-unimpaired silver proof sets and loose dimes for about half of melt. A roll of 2002-S silver halves for $100 when melt was over $220 (the description didn't mention that they were silver). The key for me is lurking in the new BIN listings, and catching lots that are missing key terms from their descriptions. Of course, it's hard to find those lots other than by stumbling on them -- if there were a reliable way to find them, people [I]would[/I] be finding them, and bidding them up.[/QUOTE]
