Do You Buy Fractional Silver Pieces?

If you want fractional silver buy pre-65 dimes, quarters, and halves (and dollars).

You might even get lucky enough to start a collection or two.

I do like buying fractionals from time to time. I can get them from my LCS for not too bad of a premium, and they are a cheaper purchase in absolute terms. I will occasionally get some online if the price is right or there is a cool design I want(like the MPM Egyptian half ounce rounds which are super cool!) Again, a way to scratch the itch for not much money, but certainly sometimes the premiums are just too much. I like the 1/2 Perth lunars also, and I don't have to sink as much money into the collection as I would if I collected the 1 ounce version. I don't buy 1 gram bars/rounds though, they are too small for me.

I buy some fractional silver for illustrative purposes only. For example, I bought one each of the Somalia elephants. One each of the libertads, etc. I would never buy fractional silver in quantity.

I too bought the fractional MPM Egyptian coins. They are cool.

If the price of silver ever gets to where it should be, fractional sizes will then make sense.

A place here sell silver grams for $2.85 CAD. Some people just don't know how to cut their silver into smaller pieces. One ounce bars are perfect for bolt cutters. Some companies just prey on ignorance.
