I echo this sentiment as well. About 18 months ago, I bought my first silver bullion... Wish I would have started sooner, but I can't help but wonder if you'd be entering the metals game now, if you're a bit too late to reap enough benefit to go "all in".

Take a look at www.coin-rare.com and others, to order bullion. It ships fast and doesn't have an outrageous % over spot, and definitely stick with bullion. IMHO, there's no reason to pay a premium just because that 1 oz coin is a "collectable".
