They can easily be purchased through online bullion brokers and can be purchased as low as around 3% to 4% over spot prices. Compare that to the premium for American Silver Eagles, which currently range from about 25% to 30%, and it's pretty clear that 1,000-ounce silver bars are way more cost-effective.

An ounce of silver that weighs 26 grams - In case Step 1 didn't already condemn this fake silver eagle, Step 2 does so decisively. A genuine silver eagle weighs 31.101 grams. (The forger also got the diameter wrong. This fake eagle measures 38.86 mm rather than the 40.6 mm it should.) The weight of a coin is something that forgers almost always get wrong. If a modern coin is off-weight, be very wary!
