Over the past 2 weeks I picked up:

10 oz Engelhard bar $2 over spot at a coin shop in NH
2 - 4oz dollar bill bars a few cents over spot from a guy on CL
3 - MS69/70 Panda's from Silvertowne (online retail) $39.99 each, they ran out of MS69 so they sent me a MS70 at no additional charge - hey I wasn't going to argue! That's a $20 bill in my pocket!

Not exactly CRH, but silver hunting is silver hunting, and there are deals to be had!

THe Engelhard bar is gorgeous, the first 10oz bar in my collection. Selling for a very high premium online. Keep an eye out for these!

Nice getting the MS70 Panda at no cost, they sell for a bit more after a few years. I've been working on a set of them for 4 or 5 years now and some of the older ones are almost impossible to find. I have all the 2000 and up and the first few years but I never see the 90's for sale, not for anything I want to pay for an oz of silver anyway. I have 10 of a few years, maybe down the road I can trade for some that I still need. I think they are the best looking coin being made with the different picture every year, I guess I just need to start CRH in China. I just picked up an Englehard and Johnson Matthey 10 oz bars last week for 2 over from a pawn shop. Make a nice profit on 10 oz when silver doubles or triples from where it is now.

Stacking is stacking. I have 3 rolls of 40% halves coming from a source on ebay that frequently sells below spot. They're on the perfect schedule that their listings all end when everyone else is busy (or I'm just super lucky).

Friends don't let friends pay ridiculous silver premiums!

Silvers much cheaper then gold though
