That is a great point that few take notice of. If the Bankers devalue Silver down ridiculously low once again, at least the Maple is worth Five dollars vs. One Dollar.

It's the Canadian equivalent of a silver American eagle. It has a picture of Minnie Pearl on the front, and a big maple leaf on the back.

Keep all your Ag purchasing options open I'd say.
Always keep an eye on the Bay as at times you can swoop in and score some under spot metal.....(know what your buying n build an eye for authentic product)
Sign up for several of the online PM Dealers news letters also as they offer differant deals.......
Don't disclose too much but let friends and co-workers know you like silver n collect what you can...sometimes a treasure pops up
And of coarse build a relationship with your LCS

shopping from home or the office has a price. It is most convenient. I have shopped on ebay many times...I like Aydin Coin, Provident Metals, the BIN section here on RC...just shop around till you find the lowest premium.

I buy all my ASE's on CL. Just scored 5 ASE's for $30 each!!!
It is a little more time consuming to shop on CL but holidays are coming and even if you love silver, i find that around holidays, silver lovers tend to sell their silver to have gift money. I also go to flea markets and snag junk under spot. I am yet to shop the bay or online, i hate to pay for shipping.
