Looking for metal bullion for element collecting

I am interested in collecting many kinds of metals and have visited every site I can find that sells that type of thing. rotometals, galliumsource, unitednuclear, tons more. The problem is that there are such high premiums on this stuff, I get that it costs money to make a mould and make these sort of novelty items but does anyone know of a good site where you can buy just like blank bars of various metals or blank rounds? Right now I am looking at provident metals. Their 2lb elemental copper bar for $15 seems like a good deal. I also saw a bunch of 1 gram bars of various metals on ebay but those are pretty expensive too.

Are there any elemental metal suppliers I could have missed?

Just the type of think I'm looking for, although a lot of it seems to be out of stock. Thanks

Thanks for the plug :thumbup:

I am having trouble restocking some items. With metals down for the last year, some manufacturers have called it quits or cut their product line way down. I have also had my hands full with other obligations for the last few months and I'm about to head out of town to help with another family business for a couple weeks. When I get back I will have a few new products waiting for me, and I will be working to restock all of the Keystone bars I make.

I Often wanted to put together a display of rare earth metals specific to the PGM family.

On Ebay a guy can now purchase our most densest metal on earth, Osmium.

Expensive as hell over spot but how cool would that be?

There is another seller who already has a small diplay of rare PGM;s if your willing to cough it up.

I have a nice sized stack of PD, PT and RH already,, I would love to get my hands on Ruthenium,, a bar of iridium and of course that oz of Osmium :roll:
