Hoping to get up to speed here. What's a good "face value" X ?, price to offer when buying odd lots of 90% silver coin. Appreciate any input here.

GOOD LUCK |

That makes 'cents' to me.  Why not have the tellers working for you rather than against you? |

beauanderos- Great idea about the tellers at 10X! Not as cheap as finding it yourself however but steal cheaper than buying it elsewhere.

Specifically for BEAU, but also for anyone else to answer: Do you deduct shipping from your bid amount, or are you talking 11x PLUS shipping? And do you also bid much on world silver lots? If so, have any of you noticed it being easier to get under melt since it's not always known how fine it is or how much ag is actually in it, etc? |

Uthminsta I only buy locally so there is no shipping.
I don`t buy world coins because I know nothing about them.
most of the time when I buy they say well you bought all my American coins so just take these to if you want them.
not that I would not buy American coins on auction, but I have had plenty here with just a free ad in the newspaper.
THANKS |
