price check: 1oz silver panda 2009-2013

[haploid23]

I just started my panda collection, and just want to know the market rate before I buy them. Based on large dealers in the US, here are the prices I found. Seems a bit overpriced for these since after 2009 has high mintage, so can someone confirm if the dealers are overcharging or not?

No grading, just basic OMP:

2009 - $65 USD
2010 - $80 USD
2011 - $36 USD
2012 - $38 USD
2013 - $34 USD


PS - if you have any non-graded 1oz silver pandas to sell, I'm looking to buy any year so shoot me a PM.

Those 2012s Special bears

I just bought all these I listed. Couldn't find a better price for them in the US. I also bought some 2013 in MS69 and MS70 for $35 and $48 (free shipping) from silvertowne before they ran out of stock. Those seem like a really good deal.

For the graded coins, and correct me if I am wrong, but the majority of them are either going to grade MS69 or MS70....it will be on how the grader is feeling that day lol.

2011 has gone up a fair bit, now worth more than 2012.

Can someone please explain why the 2012 are "special bears"? Are they worth more for some reason?

2012 panda bullion are pricey because they were released when spot price is over the top (over $1,600/oz).
