Trade-in halves for silver bars??

Just curious how much it would cost to exchange 10 troy ounces of either 40/90% halves for silver bars. Where would you send them?

Gold, trade for Gold, any denomination. I would always trade my 40% finds into ASE or 1 oz rounds, all 90% were stored until I had enough for gold. You have to diversify.
 

I wouldn't buy silver bars. Too hard to sell later. Keep your coins or trade up to 90%ers or buy silver rounds. Much easier to sell and you can break up the amount you decide to sell in lots. With big bars you can't. Just my 2 cents worth.

That's not very good diversifying. If silver falls, gold will also. Just my 2 cents.

Not always true......
 

Lots of different opinions and that is great. But some incorrect assertions too. To wit, silver bars are difficult to sell?? That is not true. 1, 5 and 10 ounce bars are very liquid if you are selling to a coin dealer. 100 ounce bars are very liquid too, but, you run the slight risk of a drill and fill bar. Personally, I avoid 100 ouncers because of that very slight risk, but 1, 5 and 10 ouncers are great if from a reputable refiner and at a good price. They stack nicely and are .999. I have been in coin stores though and saw dozens of 100 ouncers come in and go out and nobody seems too concerned about drill and filled bars. Me, I would be pinging them all over to see if there is a "thud".

Some say if silver falls gold will too, that might be true to a point but historically when silver does fall big gold falls small. Conversely silver tends to make higher gains when it does go up over the long haul.

Everyone should have both gold and silver. But if you are just starting out silver is probably a better bet for higher percentage gains in the future, but if you have a decent silver stash definitely diversify some $$$ into gold.

Dont see the point of trading silver for silver to net less silver. Personally i would trade for gold or something i enjoy collecting.
