Buying Silver

[Mr. Brass Bonanza]

Does anyone here buy silver coins on a regular basis? I'm looking for a place that has a low profit percentage without a minimum order requirement. I was just on a site that had a mark-up of 15%!

Thanks!

Both of my sons collect coins, and order directly from the Royal Canadian Mint. There is a mark up of sorts, as a 25 cent silver coin is not worth 25 cents, and costs 100 times that ... but there are no "dealer" type mark ups by purchasing directly. My kids will purchase a single coin or complete sets depending on their wishlist.

Have you tried purcasing directly from the U.S. Mint? I know there is a website that has special sets and coins and such.

Scotsman Coin is the largest dealer here in St. Louis and deals all over the country. They are selling uncirculated Silver Eagles at 10% over spot. They are selling 90% silver coins just over spot. Just do a search.
