If you have a local coin shop who carries bullion, it is worth checking - my local shop has a roll of silver dines for $75 and if you ask nicely you can get it for less.<br />I find it interesting to note that premiums of fractional gold are much less, and in some cases platinum and palladium have tiny premiums; I've been thinking about getting some of them and saw premiums of 1 to 2%. I haven't gotten any yet because of their rarity and less recognized nature.Jonathan Hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10476185257203343474noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1592992209402300549.post-30133829017827411512015-07-20T22:25:56.847-04:002015-07-20T22:25:56.847-04:00Wow....that's quite a bit better than who I...Wow....that's quite a bit better than who I've been buying from.<br /><br />Thanks, I'll check them out!drjimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05647484115197408897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1592992209402300549.post-51351033508503361362015-07-20T22:24:12.370-04:002015-07-20T22:24:12.370-04:00I'm by no means an expert, but Gainesville Coi...I'm by no means an expert, but Gainesville Coins is usually pretty good, and a little better than Apmex, who is a little better than Kitco. <br /><br />Right now, a tube of 20 Silver Eagles, the kind you get in a treasury direct box, is $372.20, or $384.11 if you pay with a credit card. <br /><br />SiGraybeardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00280583031339062059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1592992209402300549.post-66509999732765913372015-07-20T21:48:14.160-04:002015-07-20T21:48:14.160-04:00In your opinion, who has the best prices?
