Ok guys....I have seen the treads here in the past and for some reason I just cant seem to track em down so here comes a repeat thread...sorry.  But I wanted to know what people are selling and are wanting to buy 80% silver at?  Is 24Xface a selling point and say 18Xface a good buy point? Fill me in here! CHEERS!  |

Not sure what it buys/sells for but the 80% coins have these silver contents:
Dime 0.06 ASW
Quarter 0.15 ASW
Half 0.30 ASW
Dollar 0.60 ASW
So just take the silver spot price and multiple by ASW to tell you the melt value. I would guess a good buy/sell x face would be somewhere around 15x to 18x face right now? Maybe someone else can chime in with a better number.

Well considering its just a bit over 19x face for every $1.00 fv Canadian.
If you can sell for spot consider yourself lucky
if you can by at 15x-16x face go for it all day long

@ swbxxx Ya that's what I was thinking. Anything under 19Xface is not bad. I've been tracking for a few days on the bay right now and 80% has been going for 20-22Xface so I guess people dont seem to find a problem selling :-) I bought a bit at 19Xface including shipping costs...not bad but not great either.

ebay is a whole different game, most people forget listing and final selling fee's and paypal fees. So that 20-22x face turns to 19x or less really quick. Best advice buy large, I buy 100$ face at spot -15%

I can find my way around 80% by many different forms and ways to get it..thats not a problem. Only looking for a general opinion on what others top range is for buying 80%. I think 20xface and lower so I'm happy with my recent purchace. But do people here think its ok to go to 22x or 24x? Just curious.

A couple things you need to watch if buying from the US. Customs can be 17%. UPS looks like cheaper shipping, but they add $35 per box for anything they take through customs, even if it's just a wave thru. Use USPS.

Take west-canuk's advice, look here or look hereif you're paying more than their sell price,you're paying too much.Like any coin your potential greatest loss or gain is at the time of purchase. |
