With the crazy mark-ups & lack of availability, since this time last-year, making investing a/o collecting a MAJOR kick in the shorts, I believe I found about the cheapest price for junk 90% silver as I could.

Might be helpful to others as my search continues (God, am I going to be hurting w/ the pre-orders for the 2021 Morgans & Peace dollars from the U.S. Mint next week)

Good Deal?

So buy high sell low? Worst time to buy silver when its sky high unless you believe the U.S will collapse soon. If so I prefer lead over silver.
amen makes me think of Rip Van Winkle Twilight zone episode.

I can show you magazine covers with that same basic quote just about every other month going back over 20 years. Same for gold. And soon enough various crypto. Buying silver now is silly.... even moreso buying coinage over bullion.

If you're into melting, get pennies from the bank at face value Smilie

Not to mention that everyone knows the currency of the apocalypse will be bed bath and beyond coupons.

Except gold HAS exploded in price, esp. in the last 20yrs *shrug*

Why would anyone melt pennies (Zinc)??

Good luck w/ the BBB coupons. I'll trade you a stack of 'em for a few oz. of silver (I'll even take 40% 'junk'). Help ya along Wink

I'd like to understand this better. Obviously it's value is not 40 x .25. Is the value in the weight in silver? If so how much weight in silver is 40 pieces? Thanks for the education. Wink

A Collectibles store I visit buys and sells gold and silver coins advertise they buy

90% SILVER COINS 18 x Face Value so that's $4.50 each Quarter

Since the replies have not really answered the question,

https://sdbullion.com/blog/how-mu...-a-quarter
https://www.gainesvillecoins.com/...are-silver
About 6 of these silver quarters roughly equals just over 1 troy ounce according to the website above.

There are two values to coins collectable value (rare, misprints, etc.) and/or metal content value. These are junk, no collectable value. There is a constant set amount of silver in each quarter (provided they are whole quarters). That means the silver metal value goes up and down with silver prices. This is from what I understand. I am sure someone would correct me if I am wrong. People are not buying these for the collectable value or the $.25 value. You can sell these for the same amount of silver in each coin. Of course, the sellers overvalue to profit on and buyers undervalue for the same reason. Gold, silver, ammo, booze, and the list goes on, things you can buy now at cheaper prices to either deal with inflation or the collapse of economic systems.

Typically, 90% junk silver goes for spot price for every $1 of face value

They are calculated @ containing, ~.715oz (wear/tear of coin. Increase % on those rarely in circulation [$.50]) + 'premium'

But, w/ the run over the past year, the premiums have been ungodly (even in the 1000oz bars)

Again, American Silver Eagles are going for $40+/ea. Course, that's for collectors+, this is more for, in my case, 'hedging your bets investment'

Hope that helps

silver shot up early in the pandemic but has gone flat/sideways for about 10 months now, and everyone who bought in early is now out of patience and dumping. the tinfoil hats are still holding it and pushing it as a security blanket, but there's more money to be made elsewhere now that it's been realized that the pandemic is containable.

there are no "deals" or "accidents" with the price of materials/commodities. there's always a reason.

Can't wait for the transition to begin to a moneyless shared resourced based global society. We waste so much time counting, hoarding, saving and settling for second best. Companies are at a stand still with innovation because of the barriers associated with finance. Imagine never again having to deal with our absurd monetary token based reward system and just creating the most efficient greatest use products possible...plastic disposable crap gone, not having to compromise on a lower quality product because you can't afford the very best...NOW THAT WOULD BE A SLICK NEW DEAL and a better world.

Lead isn't cheap either but I'm sure you're aware. The bots are killing us in that area unless you can find any at a B&M store. I'll wait on my precious metals until things settle down, hopefully by the end of the year.

If you got the RIGHT type of lead (that which can go 'pew-pew'), you'll always be able to assist in keeping what is rightfully yours in ANY situation.

'Cuz lord KNOWS, i've been trying to track down some decently priced lead myself

High? Show me any other commodity that is 50% of it's 1980's price...
This is a false statistic based off of an inflated price based off of manipulation by the hunt brothers. Do the same comparison for any other year since 1981.
