2013 Silver Buffalo Bullion One Troy Ounce 999 Silver Doctor Bullion (SD Bullion)

2013 Silver Buffalo Bullion One Troy Ounce 999 Silver Doctor Bullion

This 1 troy ounce of .999 pure silver is one of the most popular images on a silver round. The design originated from James Earle Fraser, first seen on the 1913-1938 circulating Buffalo nickel. 

The Silver Buffalo is SD Bullion’s most popular silver round. The round normally has a very attractive price over spot compared to the higher premiums associated with Silver American Eagles or Canadian Maples.

I have not yet ordered from SD bullion so personally recommend that but that seems to be the best deal around for a one ounce silver round.. ( At *$1.50 over spot per ounce premium this is an incredibly decent price) - you can get cheaper if you get heaps or pay slightly more for less than 100.
