I don't go out of my way to buy much silver, but if a silver coin comes my way, I won't kick it out of the bed. :)

I like all bullion (no graded/slabbed items).

Bars, rounds, coins - anything 1 to 10 toz. Whatever has attractive premium/price.

I might put these 4 in a different order but agree with the preference list, as long as premiums are at a minimum (hard to do with US silver dollars). I also like Maples and Canadian dollars, and (if gotten at a super low rate) will never turn down generic 1 oz rounds or bars, but they aren't my preference. When silver crashes (not sure it will again anytime soon) the generics are pretty much the best deals to be found in quantity.


All silver dollar culls I've seen lately are selling for $1-3 over melt value.

When you sell BU ASEs back, most buyers usually give you $1-2 over spot.

During the peak in 2011 Apmex was paying several dollars over spot for ASEs, mostly because there was FOMO happening all over.
