As of now theyre still available at 205. They dont seem to want to lower the price below that so if you were planning on getting them soon I would do it sooner rather than later to make sure you can get the 205 price. 279 is way to high for my tastes

Definitely understand that. The high premiums is one of the things that turned me off of the series even though I love the look of the designs on the larger surface

Me as well. I bought 1 at 229 and the rest at 201. I didn't tven think of buying at 279 even when silver was nearing $50 oz. Right now the spread between spot and cost is a better deal than that was. They were way overpriced at the start for me to purch ASE

I think I got one at 279 and pretty much regretted it ever since. The premium for the P isn't bad at all right now, the question is will silver stay at 34ish or fall back down to high 20s. When it was 27-28 an ounce the premium on the P was just to high for me to justify getting them. For as quick as they are to raise the price they sure take their sweet time lowering it. If their plan is to just always sell them at 205 no matter what I would actually fell better about it if they would just say this is the lowest theyre going to go no matter what

I know what you mean but I guess I feel better buying them when silver spot is closer to the price. Silly but true. I haven't purchased the last few in hopes the price would have been lowered

I agree it is silly but much easier to pull the trigger on a 20 dollar premium than 65+. I laid off this years as well waiting to see if it would go down but never did. I'm not really sure what I'm going to do at this point. I do really like all of this years besides El Yunque but now that I've missed out on so many thats a lot of catch up to do and I'm not sure I want to put that much money into it

I have never regretted buying the first five last year at $279.95 per coin. #6 & 7 were $229.95, and so far #8-13 have been at $204.95. Here's hoping that #14 comes in at $204.95 on Monday... This series has fulfilled all of my criteria so far: 1. Starts within my lifetime, 2. Relatively affordable, 3. Has significant precious metal content, 4. decent and better designs and 5. Is something worth owning and accomplishing at the end.
If money is not a real issue, it's not too late to start or catch up, and at a rate of five per year it's not yet too daunting. Beyond 2013 or above $50oz. that would be another story. With Monday's release, the series is 1/4th of the way through.
@barryg: a convincing argument to place an order with Provident for the Volcanoes bullion! Nice coin!

I will watch silver and buy soon. Can't afford this week unless silver starts to really climb. Thanks for the update!

Very fast order, #40238xxx. Checkout was a breeze. Glad silver didn't finish any of the last ten days above $35, although it got above that marker on a number of days.

Yep, just ordered mine as well, no issues there. Was glad to see the price was still at $205 plus shipping. Now Ag can start on the rise again.
