To the Joe above. Nothing is going to change. Just the price of silver will.

The price of metals are not “tanking”. It is the value of the dollar that is causing the drop. Since it is almost certain that the interest rate will now rise in December the dollar has had a very strong result (worth more) against foreign currency and all commodities that are based on the dollar. That said, the mint has made no adjustments to the price of their silver coinage.

Or at least offer us some type of deal on them. I think a 10 or 20 pack at $2.50 over spot plus $4.95 shipping would be a reasonable deal. Guess they would have to figure out how to change the price at least every day, but that might not be that hard to do. Even if they only made the price good for a few hours after the afternoon spot price goes into affect, at least dedicated buyers could grab what they wanted. Look at the hoops people had to jump through to get the C&C sets. The might not be able to offer returns on these either due to the volatility of silver. Thinking all the issues through it makes sense that they don’t offer them, but it would be nice if they figured out a way to do it.

It really erks me that they don’t sell them to the public. But the “authorized dealers” can rip off the public. I hope they get stuck with the 40 million with the price of silver tanking. To the mint: MAKE THEM AVAILABLE TO THE PUBLIC WITH THE SAME PRICE YOU CHARGE THE “AUTHORIZED DEALERS!!!!
