4 stars for quality of product but as others stated premium are high. I have been a customer with them for 10 years and just made a 250 oz purchase before finding this site unfortunately. They do have an auto invest that I liked but have put it on pause letting them know that I am shopping for best price with no more blind loyalty.
This is my #1 dealer due tot he fact that they have had some of the most diverse products in any online or local inventory. Yes; their premiums are the highest in the industry and there is a reason for this. I usually can order from APMEX without the product being "Out of Stock" (or readily in stock in a short period of time) or their shipping is the best in the industry. Take your pick. The premiums I pay for in 2022 are for quick, free shipping and a diverse catalog. Thanks.
I used to buy only from Apmex because of quick shipping and a very diverse selection of products. However, their prices are totally insane. It doesn't matter what I am shopping for, Apmex is always 10-15% higher than the cheapest product I can find. Their price over spot cannot even compete with some of the other dealers out there.
Purchased silver from them, it was junk silver, and NOT coinage, but just crappy scraped and gouged silver round and 10 gram, TEN gram bars. After i personally tested everything they sent me STERLING! They won't let me leave this review on their site! They exchanged it. However most just believe what they buy is picked by knowledgeable people, after OTHER knowledgeable people go thru the items, and then bin them. NO QC!! No checker of the checker. Jokelahoma! I will never use them again.
APMEX has the highest standards in the industry - when I order, I know my product will be of the highest quality and shipped discreetly and in a timely manner. I will order again and again from APMEX. Confidence is paramount when buying gold and silver.
Four orders completed. Another in process. No problems so far. Lots and lots of inventory items that smaller dealers will probably not have (Like pre 1933 gold dollars) Not always the cheapest but often they are. Definitely worth checking their prices every time you shop.
I've bought from APMEX five times, and haven't had any problems. They may not be the cheapest; however, when I can't find what I'm looking for somewhere else I usually end up at APMEX.

In 1981, President Reagan ordered the sale of more than 50 million ounces of silver from the strategic stockpile. The metal that was sold was bought by investors and private mints. These private mint silver rounds were minted from some of the metal that was once part of the US Strategic Stockpile of Silver.Minted in 1981 at the height of the Hunt Brother's cornering the market, these vintage 1 oz silver rounds represent a piece of US minting history.The U.S. Assay Offices played an essential role in the assessment and regulation of precious metals in the U.S., especially during periods of significant mining activity.Multiple Assay Offices were established around the country near areas with significant mining activity, including San Francisco, New York, and Denver. Beyond simply assessing the purity of precious metals, some assay offices also served as mints, producing coins or ingots and helped regulate and standardize best-practices in the precious metals industry.Over time, the Assay Offices were merged with other facilities. For example, the San Francisco Assay Office eventually became the San Francisco Mint as their functions were consolidated.Beyond the inherent value of the silver they contain, vintage rounds can accrue numismatic value based on rarity, historical significance, design appeal, or association with particular private mints that may no longer be operational.FindBullionPrices.com tracks prices from some of the most trusted and reputable online bullion dealers to help find the lowest prices on 1 oz U.S. Assay Office Vintage Silver Round.The silver prices on our site for rounds and bullion are updated hourly and adjusted with silver spot price.
