Silver Market Tightens: Record U.S. FUN Coin Show Crowds Meet East Asian Physical Silver Demand 

From record crowds at the FUN Coin Show to rising demand across China and Asia, silver markets are tightening as retail and industrial buyers compete.

Silver had a busy week — and the signals are getting harder to ignore. From record-breaking crowds at the FUN Coin Show in Florida to silver bullion selling out in minutes across Japan and months-long waitlists in Singapore, physical demand is tightening worldwide.

Premiums in Asia and shrinking inventories in the West suggest this isn’t just a paper-market move, but a real-world squeeze forming across hemispheres. Listen to hear how these forces are converging — and why silver’s role as a strategic metal may be entering a new chapter.
