Nothing beats the 100 oz bar. It has amazing fondle characteristics. If we get a good price dip, think about getting one. The premium over spot is lower.

You guys made me go look at some silver. Like ocho implied, the premium is definitely higher than gold, about double. They look cool though.
You there, Ephialtes. May you live forever.

I have a friend who let me hold one of his and I suddenly understood the look in his eyes suggestive of animal lust.

JM Bullion has 10 oz bars on sale for .29 cents over spot. I hate these evil bastards. They are like pushers waving my drug of choice under my nose at a cut rate price.

Silver is not doing well at all in the present crisis and is hugely underperforming gold. I suspect this is largely due to silver's dual nature as both a precious and industrial metal. In any situation that is likely to have broadly negative ramifications for the economy, demand for industrial metals will fall. Current silver/gold price ratio is 92:1.

I personally like the 1 kilo bars. Here is one to covet.

Also, I think the price of silver may go up because from my laymen's research it seems like the cost of producing silver is somewhere in the range of 12 to 15 dollars. At that price as the miners go bust the demand will start to exceed supply - pushing the price up. No idea how high but right now it seems cheap.

Wow, that is a big drop indeed.
Silver is antibacterial, but apparently not antiviral.

This is a good example of silver's weakness. Being an industrial metal is weighing heavily on it with the global economy is going into full panic mode.
