Pawn store reopened today for fist time in weeks. Silver @12X face

I gotta say I’m tempted to pick up about $50 face for 600.

They had a raw 2016 gold mercury for 188.

Anybody buying at those prices?

    if the gold merc came with all the accoutrements, then it is an ok price

    Sadly just a 2x2. If the ogp was there I probably would have bought that.

    The silver was a nice mix of quarters halves and dimes in 5 dollar face bags.

    If the gold Merc comes with all the packaging it is a great buy. Saw one sell the other day on FB for $230 and another on Bullionstacker at $220.

    12x face is better than MOST current eBay auctions. I'd be tempted maybe at 10x but currently holding more silver than I ever hoped to have. Premiums are certainly coming down. Suspected the market will be flooded very shortly.

    The whole worlds off its rocker, buy Gold™.

    That’s kind of where I’m at. I have a pretty large stack right now. But also some extra cash since I’ve been Living under austerity for the past few weeks.

    Agree with: silver premiums are coming down, along with the price of silver.

    That gold Merc would be an OK buy at that price, if authentic and in upper MS condition. Cheers, RickO

    Seems a decent price...

    Would buy the junk at 12x face, that’s a good price right now.

    All Silver, depending on condition, at 12x face, close enough to 100 years old, is a buy.
    See what I did there :)
