Hi all,

I'm kind of new to the silver bullion market so I haven't yet seen what kind of pricing trends happen when spot goes up and down.

With spot hovering around $14.50-$15, I've noticed that a lot of the newer date Silver 1 oz bullion can be had for $17-19. Some of the back dates sell for a premium at $25-28+ and of course much more for the lower mintage dates.

Now I realize if Silver were to go up to $20 very quickly, the newer date 1 oz bullion would probably sell for $21-$23.

My question is this - will the premium silver bullion also increase as spot increases? Would a $25 silver 1 oz today go for $30 when spot goes up to $20? Or do the premium pieces wait until the Silver spot "catches up?"

I hope my question is clear.

Thank you,

AC

I feel they bump the premiums a bit when spot is lower. To answer your question, yes, in my opinion the higher premiums always stay higher. On the buying side of course. Probably opposite on the selling side.

You'd be better off playing the paper game if for profit. No physical metals needed.

Premium is higher when spot price is lower. But for semi numi they doaconnect from the spot.

Depends. When silver was nearly $50/oz I had a hard time finding a dealer willing to purchase several hundred dollars face of US 90% silver coins. I think I had to settle for the equivalent of $40-something per oz. Most dealers did not want to touch it at that time.

Ok, I guess it's pretty random. I was just thinking about waiting for spot price to go up before getting the higher end 1 oz bullions (pandas, etc.) because I was hoping it wouldn't push the premiums up higher. I bought a 2015 panda today for $10 over spot, and it just seems easier to justify buying it at $25 when spot is $20

Thanks for the 2 cents from everyone!
