I'm buying. I don't think the public is driving the price up.
If you look at the bar charts on Kitco and elsewhere, the use of silver in jewelry and silverware is much higher than it was 30 years ago. If...
Half melt value is good. It gives you a nice cushion if prices fall. But, like copper, nickel is sold by the pound (or kg). So you need a...
With a 40 oz purchase you're talking about a $1700 investment. I personally wouldn't get too caught up in the small differences in price among the...
That's exactly what I did when starting out (bought some 10 oz bars and 1oz .999 coins). Then I got into pre 1965 90% US silver coins. Now I've...
Not everyone is saying that. The opinions seem more or less split.
People actually went and turned in their gold in the past?
They seem like a good company. You get a good introductory offer like this, then you are in their coins by approval program (they send some...
Gold just topped $1800. The VIX closed over 40. The DJIA was down 500 (again). What could possibly stop this from turning into another 2008?
Flying Eagle Cent - haven't got any of these yet, but they look cool Indian Head Cent ATB Quarters
Those are ebay prices. Figure for 10,000 coppers you'd probably get around $130 ($160 minus about $30 for shipping and ebay fees). It doesn't seem...
Don't assume this is all about the downgrade. That is just one indication of one part of the trouble. You'll welcome the downturns (in the...
I'm guessing it will soon dip back to around 1600-1650/oz and then resume its upward march in the fall. That's if things in the political /...
Silver had a big run and it got spanked down hard when it approached 50/oz. It will take more time for it to regroup and challenge that level...
Lump sum would be great. But assuming I will retire with say 50-100 oz of gold it would have been hard to scrape that much money together at one...
I think my facts are 100% correct. Flipping a coin is completely random, so it's not like that either.
OK, I won't use the word 'cheap' or 'deal' anymore when referring to gold purchases. Of course if it goes up to $2000/oz in the near future, then...
I'm not afraid to buy gold here. When you dollar cost average you'll end up buying at the peaks sometimes.
It's fairly easy to find cheap silver (below melt). But where do you find cheap gold? (not necessarily under spot, but the lowest premium incl...
I hoard the little pre-1982 copper coins. It's not a precious metal and I don't consider it bullion. I wouldn't say it's a great investment either...
