I'm not aware of any list. Unless you buy from a local collector at spot price, chances are there will always be a premium, what you pay above spot price. Usually bars have less premium than coins. The bigger the bar, the less premium per ounce. Generally older vintage bars can have higher premiums, some collect them, like Engelhard bars which is no longer in business.
Newly minted bars should have lower premiums unless they are a special limited mintage design. The most important thing to do is check the online dealers for weekly sales, compare shop as you would buying a car, etc. Some of the online dealers I like are SD Bullion, Liberty Coin, Hero Bullion, APMEX, Bullion Exchanges, JM Bullion, Monument Metals, there are others. I also look at ebay sold prices. For example, you can see what 10 oz bars sold for by the various mints like Scottsdale, Germania, Silvertowne, Metalor, Heraeus, Britannia, etc.
