With all the talk about fractionals no longer being made, I pulled the trigger on these at lunch today.
I'll call these US coins for the purpose of this thread

U.S. Type Set
Had some 1 oz silver rounds
He wanted what amounted to spot + 100%
He probably paid half of spot so has a nice markup of 400% on silver bullion
Just freaking amazing!!!
Can anyone tell me if this sort of thing brings a premium on 2 centers? I just don't know.
It's medal alignment
That 2 center is almost 180 degrees off.......cool. Don't know about the premium though, I'd think so.
Is that spot + $10/$5 or spot + 10%?
Nice pickups!
Too many positive BST transactions with too many members to list.

It was $10 and $5. Silver bars and rounds are spot +10 cents and Silver Eagles were still $17.95 each. On the down side, they had the silver eagles loose and don't handle them properly. 1996 Eagles were $32 in 2x2's.
Pretty good for a pawn store IMO.
Edit for those not familar with algebraic order of operations:
If spot is 940, then is the price $99 because 940/10 = 94 + 5 dollars equals $99?
Or is it
Spot is 940 and the price is $94.50 because 940+5 = 945, and 945/10 - $94.50
