If we have $5000/oz silver that's almost certainly the dollar being crazy low and not the inverse, in which case, yeah, we probably have other bigger problems

I don't know what you say, I hope the two of you didn't seriously misunderstand the point I was making with the $5000 an ounce comment

Now.All silver and gold coins with significant numismatic value now have significant bullion value, and both must be considered to decide on current pricing.

My point exactly. I tend to look for good deals on coins and for a generic example - If I can snipe an auction for a coin that has an average sale price of $60 coin, and win if for $55 I get "excited"
There were a couple $1 commemorative coins that I wouldn't even consider paying 90+ dollars for but now paying that for them doesn't seem like a loss

At the silver price today, it is already hard to find a buyer who will pay even close to the market.

I didn't have any problem selling 45 ounces of bullion the other day, and just last Saturday I was in a shop to buy some EZest and watched an elderly couple sell $20K in gold and silver

I wasn't asking when they "actually" become bullion.
I was asking when they become bullion for "you".
As I stated in the OP if silver hits $200, I wouldn't even bother with trying to sell my $1 Comms collection on ebay, it will just go to the local guy at bullion prices

Now I understand why you buy 3 of each ASE and why you upset that the mint has raised prices so much

I have unfortunately realized that when it comes to guns, coins and Star Wars, the market loves to take advantage of the ignorance of heirs
It's probably that way for every collectable, so my plan to pick a age to sell and then give the proceeds to our grandchildren.
I just hope I make it
