Yea me too I think if I was this pappy-o I'd change my ID & leave town:kewl:

 

Oh shoot Hontonai, the gardeners daughter is where I've been getting all my stock advice lately.....

 

If they do mint in China, what will be the lead content in quarters and how will all the recalls effect coin collecting? :smile

 

On the other hand.....

What is this, Conspiracy Theory Talk now? Some people.

 

I would think it will look the same since gold is up about 4X over the past 8 years or so and the dollar is down or perhaps flatish depending on the starting point.

 

You know what is really a conspiracy? I keep reading about coin prices dropping but every place I go to buy they haven't come down at all. Coincidence? I think not!

Recently I was at a coin show and picked up a 1 oz silver bar marked $16. The dealer said to me, "It's yours for $17." I told him it was marked $16 and I asked him if he would take $15. "Nope. It's $17 now." I say this is a conspiracy.

 

Well, that wasn't really a coin now, was it. Bullion is up, which is why that happened.
