I would like to swap silver for newer Euros currency for an upcoming trip. I've got American Silver Eagles or a P Series Engelhard old pour 10 oz bar I'm willing to swap.

I'm also willing to trade graded 5 oz silver ATBs - see my post on the US Coins BST for details.

PM me if interested. Plenty of board refs available on request.

a big shoutout to Metalsman who was very patient with the USPS delay in getting his bullion shipment. Registered package appears to have been forgotten about in a USPS safe but a little nudge (claim by me) got it moving. Good news is by the time he received his tubed silver eagles he ended up paying less than current spot. Congrats on a wise buying decision.

What's a good rule of thumb for X for X times face for circ Walkers? 20 times? 22 times?

Spot is currently 20.3x. Halves always carry a slight premium over the rest of the 90% junk. Haven't bought any in years but assume 21-22x would be a good number if buying retail. RGDS!

I'd be selling. Right now silver is approx $28. Would that same 21-22 hold for $35 silver? Would nicer condition no junk coins add a bit say 23 times?

Depends on where you sell, I suppose currently $28 spot. Go to Reddit, those kids would probably pay 25x+. Feebay maybe 23-24x but then fees + shipping would bring you less than retail. Craigslist 21-22x. Slimeshop 18X or less. RGDS!

P.S. A smackdown could start as soon as an hour from now but current trend suggests you may want to hold on a bit for additional +$x. If you need the $$$ I suppose it's not a bad time to dump it.....but then higher gutter = higher X. Glad I'm mostly paper this go round. THKS!

I'm in no hurry to sell; just noticing that PMs are moving up.

I checked Scotsman in St. Louis (they publish a trading sheet).

Looks like about a 11% buy/sell spread for 90% (half dollars a little better.)

Between 18X and 19X depending on the quantity.

those are terrible buy prices...well below melt...but it seems to be pretty typical right now...the premiums to sell have turned negative for everything except ASE. I got more than 20X on 90% when silver was $22 a couple years ago. Got +15 on ASE. Seems like this 40% rise in silver prices doesn't actually correspond to making more $$$ lol.

A thread over in the coin area got me thinking about selling off 14K for melt purposes. Current spot is $2409 with 14K price of $1405 per troy oz $45.20 per gram).

What buy prices are people seeing? I stopped in a place and they offered $26 per gram. Is this what people are seeing elsewhere?

So fascinated with the 90% pricing.
When I was dealing heavily...

Buy side .665 x spot. = 19.95 x face at 30$
Sell side .715 x spot = 21.5 x face at 30$

I used 30$ just for simplification.

We did large volumes and lived in that margin. If you brought dimes and lower volume we would drop to .625 and if you brought halves/dollars at higher volume we would go up as high as 25x
There was a dealer small guy that I visited frequently and he was buying at 10 or 11x face mainly dealing with the junkies and material that was less than up and up...

Then in NJ would go up to the "mall" and visit my Russian buddy who was always buying at 15x face... I got so many Barbers from him...
Sorry reminiscing life was really different then.
