Premiums on Barbers/Dollars

I have a question regarding if the premiums for Barbers are now on par with melt. In the past I would always got charged more for these coins compared to say WLH or Washington quarters. The same goes with Morgans as they always would get a small premium over melt. I asked one person at the coin show last weekend and he stated that they will always be higher then melt but at what point with the price of silver going up so much will it be a wash.

    Barbers do sell for more. You cannot get barbers for 12-13x FV unless they are really slick and the dates don't even show. They go for like 15+x FV or more.

    If silver got to like 30 dollars/oz I think the premium on barbers would go down but still be worth more than melt.
