Perhaps you’re thinking about expanding your existing coin collection to include some of the more rare U.S. silver dollar coins. Or maybe you are thinking about starting a collection, for that matter. Or maybe you’re looking into silver dollars as an investment. Whatever you are planning on, now you’re wondering where to buy silver dollars?
 
Assuming that you’re not looking for regular, standard issue silver dollars, which you can get from your local bank, the answer to where to buy silver dollars depends a bit on what kind of silver dollars you are looking for.
 
Each year, the U.S. Mint (http://www.usmint.gov) produces several commemorative silver dollar designs especially for collectors. In recent years, these have included the:
•         American Veterans Disabled for Life silver dollars (2010)
•         Boy Scouts of America silver dollars (2010)
•         Infantry Soldier silver dollars (2012)
•         And Girl Scouts of the USA silver dollars (2013)
These and other special commemorative issue silver dollars can be purchased from the U.S. Mint, directly, through their website.
 
However, if you are looking for older, more rare silver dollars, then the answer to where to buy silver dollars opens up a bit. If you want to buy the Peace Dollar silver dollars or Morgan Dollar silver dollars, or even the American Eagle Silver proof silver dollars – which cost significantly more because they are made from bullion silver – then you need to look into making your purchase from an online precious metals company.

Such a company, like Merit Gold, will offer you the widest variety of silver dollars from which to choose, as well as the best prices. Additionally, you will be able to have the silver dollars shipped directly to your home, securely and with insurance, so you can keep them in your home safe or a bank deposit box.
 
Before making a decision to purchase from any online company, though, you need to do your research to answer your question of where to buy silver dollars: look at the length of time the company has been in business, look at their reputation and call and speak with their customer service personnel. You need to be comfortable with whatever company you choose.
 
The answer to where to buy silver dollars, to me, is clear: Merit Gold.
