    I am about 5minutes from KJC and even though I keep telling myself don't buy physical other than small coins collection I want a few silver bars. For some reason I like 10ounces, so....

    If the prices are the same what would you buy, I, leaning toward Royal Candaian Mint but I haven't seen them on sale here, is it a bad idea, should I walk to ABC and get ABC bullion?

    Elemental generic minted bar $274
    Elemental Money minted bar $275
    Baird and Co minted $282
    Royal Canadian minted 9999 $282
    Scottsdale stackable $282

    Walk few block to ABC and buy
    ABC Cast bar $279

    I bought some Royal Canadian Mint bars, look very nice but eventually I sold them because I like to play with my silver. In terms of liuqidity stick to Perth mint 10ozers. They're also fun to stack. ABC bullion ones are quite thin, but not so thin that they bend.

    If you live in australia. Its best to stick to perth mint bars. Everyone knows them, all PM people own them and everyone seems to always want more of them. They are always a shure thing.

    I like that they have serial numbers.

    I like Perth bullion, but I can walk over in 5minutes and not pay postage.
    I like the idea of 9999

    Stackers! I think they're a great idea... And practical. Plus they look great.

    Perth Mint by default but that isn't in your list so I'd go with the elemental just because it's neat knowing their silver is sourced from the metals recycling sector.
    RCM stuff is neat too, especially their older stuff.

    Perth mint isn't in a list as no one seems to be selling it a walking distance.

    Though I didn't know there was 11th round, I am currently based at 55 Clarence. Things you learn.
    I am sort of leaning towards RCM 9999 at the moment.

    If you can arrange to pickup from 11th round then I'd just get those. Saving ten bucks a bar is a no-brainer.
    He now has a $1000 minimum order, but who knows, might do less for cash on pickup?

    Royal Canadian Mint are my favorite 10oz bars. They look so much better in hand.

    I got some more recently from GS, although last two times I ordered them they went on back order and had to wait a couple of weeks for them to come in. You can get them from there.

    If you just want to stack, go with the cheapest and aesthically best looking. At the end of the day, you will probably only be able to sell for spot.

    If the extra premium isn't that big of a deal, you will only get spot or maybe a tad more when you sell(won't make up for premium when purchased). Then go with the Canadian mint. Internationally recognize and will be easier to unload.
