What do you usually try and buy? At first I was buying dimes heavily as I figured if TSHTF they would be easily split up for small purchases.Then when I was pay 12X or whatever and seen that I could buy halves for the same even though the big boys were charging a premium I started getting those. Now I've been trying top buy Morgans but they seem to be fairly expensive. D
Buying CU cents!!!! Paying 1.2 unlimited amounts wanted. Can pick up if near Ohio area.
i buy whatever I can get my hands on at a good price - Maple Leafs, Canadian 80%, generic bars and rounds. But I am enjoying finding US Silver War Nickels in Canadian Nickel Rolls the most! Nothing like getting silver at 5 cents on the dollar.

I buy a mix as I am both a hoarder and a collector. I prefer the halves though as they seem to be in much better shape than some of the dimes (or quarters for that matter) I pick up. I try to keep it diversified though. My current mix is:
I get whatever I get the best deal on. Lately I've gotten a few Canadian dollars and a few Peace dollars for right at spot. I also just picked up a bunch of .925 rings at a pretty good deal.
I got a box of scrap sterling silver I need to sell!!!!! Where is the best place to sell it? Any ideas...I can weight it and put it under the Buy,Sell,Trade topic if there is an interest.
Misteroman, Morgans are one of the most collected coins in the world and generally bring at least a $2 premium over spot in any condition. My local coin shop sells Morgan culls for the same price as silver rounds. So if you are looking for silver I would stick to halfs on down. If you can find Morgans at spot or below buy all you can.
