Thanks on the heads-up. Appreciated!I saw several videos today on YouTube claiming that Costco is now selling Royal Canadian Mint 1-ounce silver dollars, $675 for a 25-coin tube. That's $27 per coin, so $27 per ounce. I was interested in this, but I couldn't find any reference to it on Costco's web site. Several news articles on the Internet about this, though.
Some buyers were quoted as complaining that their coins were scratched. Hey, this is bullion, not coin collecting. They are still getting 2023 or 2024 uncirculated silver dollars. Coins frequently get scratched in the minting.
A month ago Costco was selling gold bars, but I think they sold out after about six weeks.
Am a fan of Canadian silver Maples, have a "bunch". Easily recognized, have features making it harder for scam artists to forge. Normally lower premiums than Eagles.
