Im a huge fan of fractionals and I know the smaller the bar the higher the premiums but come on 70 bucks for $6.50 worth of silver the premiums to make these cant be that great.

16*5=80 grains
80/15.4=5.19grams
5.19/31.1=0.1668oz
.1668*38.63=$6.44

This is another misleading auction for the inexperienced and hurried readers. You really have to look closely to see that they are tiny five grain bars. I hate it when sellers do this as they waste peoples time and some folks are fooled into bidding on what they thought was a much larger amount of silver.
"If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around them will deprive the people of all property until their children wake up homeless on the continent their Fathers conquered....The issuing power should be taken from the banks and restored to the people, to whom it properly belongs."

How about the 1/2 and 1/4 Oz ASEs being said to be the real thing and rare? E-Bay allows these copys to be presented as a US MINT product. Had a fellow try to sell me a 1/2 OZ one for $30.00. He would not belive me when I told him it was not an ASE but a copy and worth no more than SPOT. I got out a roll of them and showed him they were not rare & I had 100 more of them to sell at $20.50 ea. He bought 5 of them and told me he was going to sell them for $30.00 ea. Good luck I told him as he went out the door.
