You do know that you can get bu or proof 90% coins for melt nowadays that silver is so high right? Search around you can find them!



I agree with mkman123. BU rolls of Franklins, including some dates from the 1950s, are available very close to melt value. Granted that's about $240/roll right now, but if they are truly BU or OBW these are great to have. If you get lucky you might pull a couple gems out of those rolls and most should be around MS63. They're pretty sweet when you can find them.

I did a search for what you speak of and added this to research. So in theory as there is no bi-est with silver generally on ebay seems like, as it always get up to at least spot value, this should end around 240 bucks as you said BH1964....

Buy what you consider are 'blue chip' silver coins. If nothing else, that means high grade silver coins that have a proven track record for steady value increases. For that information, you need to examine the auction records over the last 10 years or so of the particular coins you may be interested in.

That means some keyboard research is needed.

You may discover that the price stability you are looking for may be in high grade copper or gold cons instead.

High grade coins of any metal are always in demand. Auction results bear this out.

Concentrate on Key dates. We just had a Show here and I was looking for key dates. Even the 1928 Peace dollar's value, in G4 condition, is over 13 times spot. The keys will hold their value longer as the commodity prices wane. It might just be me, but it appears that Key Date coins are rarely affected by "spot" price.
