Re: Where to buy silver coins?

I take it you are talking bullion coins. In which case how much do you want and have you any preferences for coin types.

Does anyone have a good source for buying silver coins? I have not yet found a bank that sells them, they only seem to sell bars, and I prefer coins for recognition.

I know Zurich has a lot of coin dealers, but I am elsewhere. So ideally, a bank would be good, or a company with a website, preferably based in Switzerland so as to avoid import duties. I know silver attracts normal tax, unlike gold, we pay mehrwertsteuer I believe.I searched the forum, but have not yet found such a source. By the way, am I correct that the spread is lowest on Austrian coins, making them perhaps the best choice? Or are Swiss coins also getting good buy back rates internationally? Last, I hope there is no shortage yet here, like in many other countries at the moment.
