    Make sure that your storage conditions are "cool and dry", and if you are storing coins in plastic, make sure that it's archival plastic and not pvc.

    << <i>I don't find most of the physical silver offers especially tempting at $2.50 to $3.00 per ounce over spot. The lower the silver price goes, the higher the premium rises (as a percentage of the purchase price). At today's depressed prices, I prefer some of the smaller gold and silver exchange traded funds and their lower buy/sell spreads. >>


    The big dealers are paying a $2 premium on silver eagles right out of the US Mint. >>


    Okay, this is an oversimplification but gets the point across.

    Silver is at $17 spot. Dealers are paying $19 for silver eagles and selling them at $19.50.
    You buy 100 silver eagles for $1,950.
    Silver advances five dollars to $22 spot. Dealers are paying $24 for silver eagles and selling them at $24.50.
    You sell your 100 silver eagles for $2,400. Your profit is $450 (not counting shipping charges).

    -or-

    Silver is at $17 spot.
    You buy 100 shares of a silver ETF for $1,710 (the extra $10 covers the commission and the buy/sell spread).
    Silver advances five dollars to $22 spot.
    You sell your 100 shares for $2190 (as before, the $10 difference covers the commission and the buy/sell spread).
    Your profit is $480.

    Net difference - The ETF gives you a $30 higher return, with 12% less capital required and no storage or shipping hassles.

    Some say $700 or even $600 is this possible? What factors would make these prices come to fruition?

    Doesn't seem so long ago I started a thread where I gave away an ounce of silver to the person who could guess when silver would hit $15. Believe it or not, it was November of 2007.
    When I purchased a coin shop in 2009, silver was about $10. How time flies. Perspective is a funny measurement.

    I could put a stop to this decline in a moment's notice, but I'm not selling.

    Funny how you guys post this on PM forums every day. We know you have the answers but you still need to prove it to yourself every 12 hours?
