Honus Wagner Elemetal 1 oz Silver Bar

Highland Mint, where have you gone?

Seems a bit pricey for $16 worth of silver. You can get a us mint proof eagle for $50. Neat design and the cig pack is very cool, but seems like just another shiny modern collectible...but who am I to talk - I bought two of the us mint curved baseball coins.

Actually, it doesn't look too bad. Not sure how the price compares to other 1-ounce silver bars, but as long as you're buying it because you like it and you're not worried about any "investment" potential, it's a cool item.

$80 for an ounce of silver?

Gee, I'll sell anyone 4 ounces at that price. Bars or rounds. Seriously, just PM me.

I have a card, a little over I gram of cardboard, that I paid $500 for. A Rodney Dangerfield board game "No Respect", a little box that says Fart Finder and inside is a plastic nose, a ton of army men I lost as a kid and bought back in my twilight years, and a little pewter dog taking a crap too. I have a thousand books I will never be able to read now. I have them and not the money I paid for them. I have guns and a bank safe full of silver. I have 474 out of 495 1958Topps in high grade PSA and one of the commons cost me over $100. This guy is getting a bargain perhaps or perhaps not but definitely getting rain on his parade for sure. I won't even mention the furniture scattered around the house from art deco, to blond, to quarter sawn oak.
Not interested yet, but if coin with an Aaron came out would have to think about it.
On to the collecting!

I just looked at the price and agree I won't be buying an ounce of silver for 80 bucks haha. But still a cool design. Wish it was cheaper

This thread should be moved to the modern cards area.

to the price of an ounce of silver is similar to comparing a card to the price of the cardboard. Not exactly the same but the item has more than just strictly intrinsic value. That said the price point does seem rather hi. I however do not think it is my place to talk down on someones purchase unless advice was solicited.
