How much are silver eagles each?
Last I bought last month were $32.88 plus 3% commission. The American Silver Eagle 1 oz dollar coin fetches a $3 premium over spot, plus commission, when silver is available. When a shortage occurs that premium, and the price, can rise. Premium is defined as the spot cost of the metal plus the minting fees, ect. All real silver investments carry some type of premium I've found except the half dollars, quarters and dimes. Silver rounds and bars have the least premium, 1 oz rounds were $30.55 + commission last week. The larger the denomination of metal the cheaper the premium.
And check out this little quirk. There is no sales tax on any US currency coin in Florida, but there is on bullion purchases up to $500. Any bullion purchase over $500 has no sales tax.
In all my exhaustive rescearch over the last 3 months I've found the best prices on metal at one of our local brokerage houses. Any of the big exchanges, like Monex or APMEX have higher prices than locally, usually have multi-thousand dollar minimums and charge for shipping and insurance. All it takes is a little gas to buy locally and it's the best prices I've found. They have most any form of the metal you might want plus the old 90% silver coins at the best prices I've found.
