Other Frequently Asked QuestionsWhat is US 90% silver coin and why do you recommend it?
90% silver coin is quarters, dimes, and half-dollars minted before 1965. (90%silver coin does
not 
include silver dollars.) Everyone knows that 4 quarters = 1dollar. In the same way, 4 quarters minted before 1965 = 1 face value dollar. Aface value dollar is how we sell 90% silver coin. So, when you ask for the price of 90% silver we will say it costs, for example, $25.00 per face value dollar. A facevalue dollar is either 10 dimes, four quarters, or two half-dollars. A face valuedollar contains .715 ounces of silver. The standard trading unit for 90% silver coin
is a “bag” of $1,000.00 face value, containing 715 troy ounces. You can purchase
any portion of a bag that you wish. We recommend 90% silver coin simply because it is often the cheapest, most divisible, most widely recognised and tradedform of silver.
What about Silver Rounds, what are those?
Silver Rounds are simply one ounce, 99.9% pure silver coins minted in the UnitedStates. They are made by various private refineries and are
not 
 
 just round “blanks”
of silver. They all have varying pictures because the companies that mint themhave varying production runs using different designs. Regardless of the picture ontheir front and back, all
silver rounds we sell state clearly on their face, “1oz.Silver, 99.9% pure (or .999 fine).” We sometimes recommend Silver Rounds
instead of 90% Silver Coin because premiums (not our commission
 — 
the premiumis the percentage over the spot price that you pay for a coin) on both coins fluctuatefor a variety of reasons. Since we consider it our duty to sell you liquid coins for the best price, sometimes our recommendations change.
Why do you recommend gold coins like Krugerrands, Austrian 100 Coronaes,and Mexican 50 Pesos, and what are they?

 
We expect it more likely for you to be abducted by aliens than for the FederalGovernment to attempt gold confiscation. First, gold no longer forms a significant part of the monetary reserves in this country, as it did in 1934 and therefore,confiscation makes no sense. Second, the folks who tell you about governmentconfiscation are generally trying to sell you overpriced coins that will line their  pockets and empty yours.
