The metals have remained within a steady range over the last couple of weeks with Gold currently at $1,507.50 and Silver at $18.03. The premiums have tightened considerably so buyers have been able to purchase bullion coins at the most reasonable percentage above the spot price possibly in history. Spreads between the buy and sell among dealers is so narrow it is difficult to figure how they are making any money. But this is what the retail buyers are pursuing right now so dealers are forced to participate in this market.
