If it is just silver BULLION you are interested in, it has to be poured bars.

I have about half a kilo of junk silver coins. Haven't the foggiest idea of what I will do with them.

Im big on multiple value Bullion. so 90% for me, since its weight is value, but has realistic face value too.

There's lots of great silver out there. Half the fun is enjoying the wide selection!

End of the day, though? Push comes to TSHTF? I'll take ASEs and never regret it for a second!

It seems to be that all of those high quality silver round and ingot collectors has taken the first step to being numistmatists.

Ain't much wrong with that!

I always buy 90%. It's easy to find, and it seems to spike in value a lot.
And then there's the fact that 90% silver is COINS. Not bars, not rounds, coins.
I'm a coin collector, not a silver collector!

Pre 64 coins for me. Love the different denominations and the history behind then.

NOTA. 80/20 silver Canadian coins. Cheaper (in real terms), easier to get.

I like the Libertads because I get them just about anywhere and they are beautiful.

Plus...did you know that down here you can walk into any bank in the country and buy and sell them for an incredibly low spread? Talk about liquidity. Then, if you have the time, you can hawk em on ebay and get a few bucks more than you paid for them, even if you just bought em from the bank!....but those fees are a major downer, so...you just walk into the bank, no fuss, no whining, no feedback scores, no waiting, just quick cold hard cash...if that's what you need.

Can't beat that.

I'm a hundred percent for 90% , because this covers everything from Carson City Morgans to junk silver found in circulation.

Hear, hear! I'm with you CW. Many great choices out there but the ASEs gotta have a slight edge over the SMLs. Both are great, though.

Also really like the Morgans in XF or better condition.

Holy cow, Trip! If I was to see that gas station sign while driving, I would probably lock all 4 wheels and put the family van up on 2 wheels getting into that place!

actually with those gas prices it would be cheaper to pay with fiat at least here in NC gas is 3.72 and a dime is worth 2.20 +/- depending on spot
