How about Dirham Kelantan? Anybody jnows about it?

Have to agree with you It would be slightly cheaper if gets from overseas but there's also the tax and delivery hassle.

I'm glad we have more and more suppliers locally. This could possibly make the price more competitive Good for us the investors.

Both have the same amount of silver but panda has a higher premium. Following coins are good for investment. Just what i think. Thanks

* American Silver Eagle
* Silver Canadian Maple Leaf
* China Silver Panda
* Austrian Silver Vienna Philharmonic
* Australian Silver Kookaburra
* Mexican Silver Libertad
* British Silver Britannia (highest premium compare to all the coins above)

I did some comparison for SILVER COINS PRICE between 3 local suppliers as below:

- merlip.lot.my
- www.silverformalaysia.com
- www.1cheapsilver.com

For american eagle, all three suppliers are having about the same price. At 1st look, 1cheapsilver might look cheaper, but the listed price doesn't include cover. You need to add RM1.80 for it. And delivery is about RM10. But if you can COD for LOOSE OUNCE, then price will be around RM1 - RM2 cheaper than silverformalaysia and merlip.

But if buying tube for eagle (20 pieces), then both silverformalaysia and merlip is cheaper than 1cheapsilver. Pros for silvermalaysia and merlip is they have lots of choices and price can be negotiated for tubes.

As for SILVER BARS comparison, I think goldchan and 1cheapsilver price are quite cheap. Can consider bars from this two.

Pricing are quite competitive nowadays from what I see. It's really a good sign for investors.

True true I agree with you begginer2011!! But one thing I really dun like is when silver price drop, silverformalysia and merlip they no drop.. But by the another way I also dun like 1cheapsilver just selling American eagle coin only! No choice to choose

Hi angelatan, I don't agree with you that silverformalaysia and merlip doesn't drop price when silver price drop. Because I monitor them a few times a day over the period of 4 weeks especially when price drop. Both of them update very frequently. You can check it out time to time to verify what I say Forgive me for that cause I'm a full time investor for commodity, shares and properties, so i will be all time tracking price to get the cheapest source

In fact, the best day to do comparison is on Saturday and & Sunday when the spot market close. Let's do another comparison for today since the spot market has closed. So this would be the most accurate as of now This time i'm going to add in few more suppliers to compare investment bullion coin and bar.

merlip.lot.my
Not too sure what happen this two days, his store doesn't show any products and price. Maybe can compare again next Sat


1cheapsilver.com
american eagle = RM 163.40 (without cover)
= RM 165.20 (with cover)
tube price (20 piece) = RM 3268 (no need cover as they will provide tube)

1oz Sunshine Minting Bars = RM 143.10
20 * 1oz Sunshine Minting Bars = RM 2862


GoldChan Ebay store
20 * 1oz Sunshine Minting Bars = RM 2790 (significant difference for bulk)


silverformalaysia.com
american eagle = RM 165 (with cover) ** I'm not sure if they can go without cover
tube price (20 piece) = RM 3220 (significant difference for tube)


clickgold2u.com
american eagle = RM 170 (with cover)

** Price doesn't go according to spot price. But if spot price goes up another USD2-3 and if they remain with this price, then this could be a good source for loose ounce
** You also can find american eagle in different years like 1986, 1999 here as well


silveray.lot.my
american eagle = RM 169 (with cover)

** Price doesn't go according to spot price. But if spot price goes up another USD2-3 and if they remain with this price, then this could be a good source for loose ounce



I do not factor in the postage for all the above sellers cause some can have COD and some don't. Some give free delivery for tubes and some don't. You can check it out with them if you want to know more.

Please share more if you come across other local suppliers so that we can always source for the cheapest silver in town !!

stackers selling scottsdales bars at $1450 for 1oz X 10. maybe if 20 pieces can get cheaper. i think your can mix & match the 10 pieces with few brands, sunshine, silvertowne, scottsdale and morgan.

good bargain if you are into "collecting silver".

See what you looking for lo... if you are looking for 2009 and below is a good place to buy if you live in Sarawak even better the company is there

anyway if that's your question, then i believe it's up to the moderator/s. i've raised this issue much earlier but no one seems to care. moreover it's a free country, is it?

P.S. some people have thick skin and will never listen no matter what you say or do

I wanna ask, if I have RM1K to invest on, which would be better and WHY? Stocks or commodities? I was really serious on getting silver coins. Which would be better and most importantly WHY? Thanks

Sorry my first time talking on forum, normally i read only hehe... i saw people post silver coin and price to sell... that why i asking!!

after reading 1 post two days back, starting the post look like helping people but actually is opening a door to let people promote selling silver. I think is better to talk about the quality of the seller than just promoting the price...

Hi everyone,

thank you.

Which INVESTMENT COINS do you like most among those listed below?

1. American Eagle
2. Canadian Maple
3. Canadian Grizzly Bear
4. Austrian Philharmonic
5. Chinese Panda
6. Australian Kookaburra
7. Australian Koala

For me I prefer Canadian Maple and Chinese Panda the most What about you?
