What is a good price for Silver and Gold.

While you may think this is an easy question to answer, if you are just getting started or if you are an avid collector, you know this can be a daunting task.

There are many factors that determines a coin, round, or bullion bar's worth.  Many times, it is no more than someone needs that particular item and that can drive the price up and that is not a great way to assume a sound value when you are looking for a special item.

The older the item, the more difficult it is to determine value due to condition and grading scales.  Most of the time ordinary hobbyists are not equipped to grade a coin as a veteran coin collector might be, so you are left with opinions and those vary wildly.   There is no substitute for watching and learning and being patient!

Take your time as a collector.  Stick to what you know or what your trusted network knows.  Do not take for granted that all sellers will treat you fairly.  Ignorance is preyed upon, and this is nothing new!
