The recent silver market

For those who are interested in "pairs" trade; the ratio between gold and silver has gone from sightly over 100 to 1 (silver to gold) to 52-to-53 to 1. . . .
What is the pairs trade ration between carbon and lead?
 
The Treasury repriced Silver Eagles @ $173 last night.

Its the price listed at the US Treasury. All Treasury silver is priced way above spot. The screenshot above is what Silver Eagles are priced at now.

Those are collector versions. They have always cost more

Thanks, I didnt know that. I was comparing JM Bullion Silver Eagle prices to the Mint prices. Are the Mint Silver Eagles usually this much more than US Mint Silver Eagles at the dealers ? Im not seeing any difference but price. Its about a $66 difference.

Those collector versions of proof and uncirculated 1 ounce silver eagles had a $78 per ounce increase this past week. The Treasury sets the price for the US Mint.

That is a big increase.

I am also seeing that Costco has put a limit on how much silver they will sell per customer. They are apparently doing a land office business in selling silver to Americans.

A proof coin is struck from specially polished dies and planchets to give a mirror like surface. An uncirculated coin is simply one that is new and not been placed in circulation, which would seem to be essentially all bullion coins other than the proof versions.

Personally, I prefer the monetary gold and silver coins that can often be bought at a similar or even smaller premium than bullion coins. I just bought some 200 year old gold coins at a lower premium than a modern bullion coin of similar weight.

Has the US Treasury ever increase the price of Silver minted products 87% in a couple of days ? Their price is so far away from spot its kind of interesting.

Bill
 
Spot price for silver bullion is heading to $95. Its at $94.60.

just remember where you've buried the loot

In High School one of my friends burried gold in his families back 40. He forgot exactly where it was. He knew it wasnt deep. What he didnt know was his dad had watched him burry the gold and took care of it. My friend kept digging every now and then. He never found it. Years later his dad told us the story of the missing gold and watching my friend looking for it. It was the case of the missing Acapulco gold finally solved.
