    Sounds like fun. Why is it that Silver 10oz bars are selling $10-15 over spot? I thought that stuff sold AT spot? Just curious...I have never been a buyer of bars but have sold coins worth MELT just shy of spot.

    Engelhards always have a premium. You did well with what you paid!

    I would suggest looking at eBay auction results for the true value of these bars. That's what I feel is an accurate reflection of their market.
