Sea... a friend recently bought some Swiss 20 franc pieces, very pretty, each has .1867 troy oz...

What you should do IMHO is find a local dealer who buys and sells in the local market (hopefully without sales tax)... and therefore can give you a good price when you buy... because he does not have to order from a wholesaler, pay the fabrication cost or shipping... downside: you cant be too particular about what is available, or when.

The 20 franc coins were purchased at spot... which IMHO is a good thing <grin!>.
