Do Englehard Prospector silver rounds bring any kind of premium over other 1 oz silver rounds?

I picked up a few of these Prospector rounds at $17.50 each at a local show. Also, picked up a few 1 oz Englehard silver bars at the same price. Do these have any premium over other silver bars? He threw in a silver 15 gram silver bar from "The Royal American Mint". Never heard of them.

In my experience the Prospectors do in fact command a premium over "generic" rounds.
Close to ASE prices but when the same I buy ASE.

Prospector 1oz rounds are 2 steps above generic 'christmas' type rounds, but definately a step below ASE's or maples. However, the Engelhard 1oz bars are at the top of the food chain, just slightly below Credit/Pamp Suisse bars, and easily on par with JM bars.

It's all .999+ pay what you wish for it. You did get a GOOD buy on that silver though

Thanks for the info, guys. I figured I did all right at $17.50, especially if silver rebounds tomorrow.

Not in my book.....Engelhard 1 oz bars are obtainable for $21 - $25, on the other hand, just try to buy a PAMP Suisse 1 oz silver bar for under $45, or a Degussa (Non Art Bar) 1 oz silver bar for under $29.
