How can Provident have this on pre-sale for $100?

Perhaps Provident has the bullion version on pre-sale and not the collector's version?

barryq, You look to be correct. The ones they are selling are from Westpoint, not Philadelphia.

The only press for minting of the 5 ounce (Bullion and P version) is in Philadelphia....
The collector version has a different minting process but uses the same press

I don't suppose there's any chance the price will come down with the drop in spot...but a guy can dream.

I'm still miffed that the Mint withdrew the 10% discount for subscribed coins. I liked paying $139 for the ATB pucks. Oh well, you can't fight City Hall. |

Thanks for reminding me to suspend my subscription of the ATB pucks. I'll be getting this one of course, but lumping it with some other purchases. |

50+ DOLLARS over spot is excessive, even for the mint.

Since silver doesn't seem like it's going to drop below $15 any time soon, I bought mine today, along with a few other products I've been holding off on. Looking forward to it!
Great pic, scurry64!
