If you go to a dealer and buy a monster box (500 coins 1oz each)of US silver eagles which is worth over 10K, are dealers required to file this form for silver coins? Do they ask for your personal info like SSN? If you pay by money order, cashiers check, or cash

A dealer will (should) fill out paperwork if you give him $10K+ in cash. Now, bank wire or check, I think the paperwork is unnecessary because the bank now has a paper trail.

Yes. And your taxpayer ID, which is part of the form that must be completed, is your SSN. If you can somehow pay by personal check, no.

As objectionable as this form may seem, it's fairly benign. I would worry more about who follows you after the purchase than this form.

No, not specifically. Check the phone book for that area or do a Google search for "Los Angeles county" and "coin dealers". Both of these should turn up several shops that deal in coins and bullion.

If you can't find one that looks good to you, do consider the on-line vendors with good reps, such as APMEX, Provident Metals, and SilverTowne. Many of us on this site have used these dealers multiple times and have done well with them for the most part.
