    So about $25. Will it sit here for another ten years ?

    chart shows it at $25 only four times over past ten years. Silver doesn't sit still.

    I've been a buyer on the dip and a seller there too, for decades. Dirty business.

    At $25.12, and it being not quite mid-October - I'd say that $29 silver is still up for grabs this year. I've been dithering a short while on making a buy, and it's already cost me maybe $4/oz just for my dithering.

    Has anyone noticed - it seems as if the premiums on silver are starting to decline?

    And Goldman is predicting $30 silver price target (not sure in what time frame):

    "All in all, Goldman concludes that over the next 3 years solar should boost silver total industrial demand by 2% in the base case and by 9% in a bull case."

    That's been my price since my cost for monster boxes went from $3.95 over spot to $6 over plus shipping. And that's since March. Premiums aren't dropping, despite fluctuating prices.

    It is known that a limited number of 2014-2017 ASEs were actually struck at either the Philly or the San Francisco mint. Some 2015s were actually attributed as P mint by the TPGs before the mint walked back on its method of identifying the Philly boxes. It seems the black marker serial number that the mint writes on each green box can be used to determine where the coins were struck. However, the mint has corrected itself at least once on the S/Ns it provided. CoinWorld has a few archived articles on this, but no definitive method of identification.

    Well Yes. When the rush dies down so premiums drop.

    I remember when gold & silver got all Drakes Passage in a row boat many years ago.
    Thats when it hit $1000/$50. :*

    Hmm, gold and silver premiums continue to rise despite the fixed metals markets.

    Not sure how things are going for you guys. But I just had a slew of my watchlist disappear on Ebay and all my overpriced coins sold (all the stuff meant to just sit pretty). Like raw $450-$500 au slider quarter eagles and $350 G$1.

    There was a slight dip or maybe like 3 to 4 weeks ago, but since then, things have been pretty wild. It was also clear that inventories for major sellers swelled a couple weeks ago. Seemed like 3 or 4 big guys all reloaded at once.

    I checked my wholesalers and even they dont have anything. "Nobody" seems to wanna sell. I logged in to check the BST but no surprise it's pretty picked over.

    So much gold disappeared last night! I didn't think maples could get any thinner. Quarter eagles are floating around $450-$500 for AU sliders in plastic. $5 seem to be around $700-$750 for the same. $10 low MS are around $1200 now, are you kidding lol.

    MS coins are wild. There are still amazing prices out there. Market is so hot both buyers and sellers are making out.

    Yeah was talking about this last night with the wife. If that wave of 2020 bullion didnt come a few weeks ago, there'd be next to nothing left right now. Please don't tell her but I think she's right.

    Things are about as bad right now as I thought they would've been in March. Sadly these last 9 months have been nothing compared to what we are in for. The variants are more contagious and more deadly. People are running out of money and fractional silver is becoming much more popular exactly like I said it was gonna.

    Did you guys see all the 90% get wiped out too? Sort some categories by Newly Listed and none are older than 6h. Hahahaha.

    recent lows are the bottom. For the past five years year-end selloffs have led to new-year rallies. And, like rust, inflation is slowly spreading.

    Hope you're right too.

    2020 has been the year of inverse relations, and broken fundamental realities sprinkled with a dash of, "can you believe this"?

    I'm no expert, but times are truly WTF. That said, I'd predict a sharp breakdown, or, sharp melt-up. Why? It seems in these times we are either going down with the ship, or, going to the moon!

    The media narrative seems to be the driver in all of this...I'd like to see fear taken out of the equation for a true picture that may get us closer to fundamentals because I don't think investors want to be directed by media-hype driven markets...we are stuck with this I guess.

    The binary state. :(
