Hello again,

I'm looking for either a brick and motor shop offering non-collector gold and primarily silver coins in Seoul or Incheon. Also if there are online retailers with good references I would also purchase from them.

So are there any people who have experience buying gold or silver coins in Korea? Are they sold at (or near) spot price of the precious metals themselves? All I can seem to find are collector coins, such as Kim Yuna coins which are way above the price of silver.

You can buy tin hats at Lotte Mart. Should see you through the apocalypse to come.

What? I have, through my own judgement, determined there is a high likelyhood that silver will increase in value and that the Korean currency will continue to devalue against silver and gold. Not open for discussion on my opinion. Let me add that it doesn't have anything to do with a war with North Korea, if that's what you're talking about. It would probably be better to hold cash in the event of war so I could actually buy things. Not many stores accept silver bars around here.
