Priemiums are here to stay and never go away until a dying day

[Eminem]

For junk silver anyways.
I'ma' be real wit cha. There's a limited supply of junk silver. People are demandin' junk silver and there's not enough of it. Premiums are higher per ounce for even 40 percentas and war nickels than a silver eagle. It's wack. I'm concludin' that junk silver will always have a slight premium even if the price does go down. This is applicable to us rollers because now if your considerin quitting because your buring so much gas now you can keep in mind there might be a permanent premium to our finds...what do you guys think? Tim zim knows what I'm sayin

Until next time... peace!

Perhaps you are right a out 90% but I have not found the same to be true of 40% and war nickels. In fact, I've found war nickels go for below spot often. I believe it has something to do with the difficulty in extracting the silver when melting them down. That specific alloy makes it harder.

I've found that the premium depends on the coin, not the percentage of purity. In my area silver rosies carry almost no premium ounce for ounce compared to a silver eagle, or Morgan dollar, or 90% half dollar.

Homie if you buy one ounce of war nickels by me you'll be paying 26 bucks an ounce. Maybe it depends on the area

I hope you're right!

Olé...!

An ounce of war nickels is $26? What a rip off. That's paying more than an ounce for way less than an ounce of silver. The nickels are 35% so only 35% of your ounce would be silver.

I meant one ounce of silver in war nickels. so youll be getting mo' other metals too but and ounce of silver

I can get 40% and war nicks at or below spot cause nobody else wants them- well I dont really want the nicks either- and as for the premiums they better not stay high once the spot rises- but I can see your point if there is more demand than supply then I guess they could stay high :-(

An ounce is an ounce. Whether it is an ounce of 35% silver, or an ounce of 90% silver, it is still an ounce.

You're right but that's not what I was challenging. Take an ounce of 90% and an ounce of war nickels. Which ounce has more silver? The 90% because 90% of it will be silver as opposed to only 35% of the weight being silver in the nickels.

You are confusing actual weight with Troy ounce weight. They are not talking about putting the coins on a scale and weighing them out. They are saying that that the silver in _________ amount of coins contains one troy ounce of silver.

I agree, you cant make more junk silver, therefor it only can go up in value..it not only has silver melt value but its also fractional (good for bartering) and it also has a face value..WIN WIN in my book..keep stackin!
