Comparison of Silver Options Performance

I was under the impression that slightly OTM options offer the best performance. Just for fun I did a comparison, and I was surprised to find that the way OTM options did the best.

All options listed below are Dec 99 Comex options. Prices are in cents.

Strike Price @ 2/05 Price @ 12/09 Increase
500 93.5 38 2.46x
550 63.5 23 2.76x
625 36 12 3x
725 19.5 6 3.25x
850 11.5 3.3 3.48x

Is this what usually happens? Or do the way OTM options speed towards 0 as they come closer to expiration.........

Any thoughts on what would be the best play for now............

Getting ready to buy more.....
