I'm watching the huge divergence between the paper metals and the real thing. For example, Silver Eagles are selling for $24, while contract spot is $12.85, currently.

Can you explain that in more detail? I've noticed it as well.

How much has the spread between the two gotten historically (fully realizing that this is Black Swan event)?

I’ve never seen the spread this great. Not even during the bull run when silver hit $50. Holders of PM contracts, maybe not wanting to be left with worthless paper, are selling like mad. People are buying the real thing and dealers are posting shipping delay notices.
