What % Silver Content Is Too Low To Take Seriously?

Maybe it is different for you Elimist, but in my experience, there are fewer buyers for 35% and 40%, and also, they sell for a lower percentage of the silver content. A good deal is a good deal though, whether it is on .999 or .35, so there is no really definitive answer for this thread, just peoples' thoughts and opinions. I know that I became interested in Canadian 80% because the premiums on US 90% were getting too high, and I wanted a "better deal".

There is no definitive answer to this, you simply have to know the sort of buy and sell price for each % of silver specific to your country. I could sell 40% Kennedys at the equivalent of $6-7 each no problem at all but in the UK there is just no way you can pick them up regularly below spot.

In the UK 50% silver is very liquid, because it's the norm. I'd imagine it's the same in Sweden with the 40% stuff.

It's interesting to anyone that remembers 1980, $50 silver and the Hunts. We couldn't give away the 40% silver halves, I believe because of the refining costs. The Hunts wanted as pure of silver as possible as they cornered the market.

Anything under .900 is a waste of time.
