This is a dumb question, but here goes!

(I know nothing of investing in PM's)

I'd like to buy some of those Pamp Suisse 1 oz silver bars. If silver is around $40 an oz., why is the price of them $60+ ??? If I buy some, won't I lose $20 per oz right off the get go?

I've checked monex and ebay, etc., and it seems everyone is selling for over $60.

Thanks!

What is "the premium" and this "noise" you speak of? (I'm sorry, I don't even know the lingo of PMs)

I'd like to buy 10 or 20 of them, to start off, strictly for if the shtf and someone has something I need and they'll only trade in pm.

I like the Pamp Suisse, just because they're pretty, and if the s never htf, well then, I'll have something pretty to look at!
