Good afternoon, I have been a coin collector for years and am always buying Silver Morgan dollars. But, I end with an emotional connection to them and do not know if i will sell them, or just pass them down to my kids.....My older son has recently (and I have followed) benn buying silver bars. A good place to buy is apmex.com....price can vary daily. I have been buying 10 oz bars for just pennies over spot...even got free shipping on some. They also sell on ebay. a very respectable name with excellent quality bars. You can buy 1 oz coins (many different kinds) but you will pay a premium for them and not sure if you will get that back when you want to sell.
For no emotional attachment, i would buy 1 oz, 5 oz or 10 oz bars....you can buy for very close if not spot...and are very easy to sell when silver creeps back up...i thnk it was up to $42.00 last year???? I sold some and am now buying for about $22.00!!!
