    FX options aren’t related to FX spreads and don’t have any premiums. That’s why there are no such examples and websites don’t mention this. The term “premium” doesn’t exist in options world in the sense you’re trying to use it. No such thing.
    There is also no such thing as “spread” on different FX instruments using options, though you yourself can create various types of option spreads on a single FX instrument/currency.
    Try learning how options work to understand what they are. You can usually trade them near mid-price, and may be able to provide some liquidity when trading them on FX futures.
