In this image you can see the lines continue undisturbed between the letter O, while the high points of some letters are free of lines. If this...
The lines are completely parallel though. Reason would dictate that if they were PMD there would have to be some deviation in the lines. Also, the...
Are the lines as coarse or are they smoothed down more on the 89? Looks like it didnt affect the grade!
So is this cool or just a weak strike and rough planchet. Part of me kind of likes it, its like a coin in transition. Its also like a mint error?

Here's some more pics. I had to take them with a ziplock bag over the holder because I don't know if I'm keeping it (I mean, I always do) and the...
The coin is gsa slabbed, which makes it more intriguing. I'll post more pics when I get home.

I wasn't saying that there needs to be a fixed gold standard, I was just baffled at the hate for gold. We should be lucky there is something that...
I don't understand the hate for gold. It is certainly more valuable than paper and ink, and since both of these things are valueless what's the...
I'm sorry but I strongly disagree. Just because it is no longer a fixed standard doesn't mean they aren't inexorably linked. Hyperinflation is...
The only time you will see gold collapse is when the alchemists finally succeed. I've read they are getting close, but the cost to synthesize it...
I think you read it wrong. He wan't implying deflation, he was implying hyperinflation would occur. I told you before you keep ignoring GDP....
Who says you have to do one or the other? JP Morgan's been stacking silver since 2011.
I don't think rising interest rates will hurt silver, they will hurt the dollar, which is the reason why they have been flatlined since 2008.
