I quickly compared silver rounds of https://www.texmetals.com/products/silver-coins/texas-silver-rounds vs https://www.jmbullion.com/silver/silver-rounds/1-oz-silver-rounds/
$32.82 vs $30.54 = $2.28 per round. Which is an 8% up charge vs jmbullion.
Worth pointing out, this doesn't include purchase fees or shipping & handling or insurance, which can also heavily vary. I have no idea how those fall out on these. Regardless, there likely are better deals.
You cannot compare different rounds like that, first, second, shipping and insurance are included. The question was where OP could get dirty silver, I answered. The cheapest rounds I ever found were at BGASC they have a house brand round that is often 1/2 price normal up charge over spot. If you want just silver that does not have cool shit stamped into it, them or sunshine mint or something boring like that is probably going to be cheapest.
Rounds are not coins. In general, they are directly comparable as their only value is their weight and metal. It's coins which gets more complicated. While there are exceptions for rounds (collectibles exist in rounds), generally the only thing you should care about is how much you pay per round relative to the value of its metal.
