I really don't see what the deal is. You can buy one ounce 1800's gold coins for less than that. I don't think it's much of a bargain, but I...
One guy predicted a low of $29, so he's out of the game already.
Here's a bust and harp token minted in Ireland for Canada: [IMG]
Yes, it's a volatile thing to buy. I have no idea what else is any good in the schlock market. I would rather buy physical silver and gold, but...
So gold isn't going down lately. Huh. I wonder what that means? I just bought 10 shares of GLD, and they have gone up, so I'm okay with that.
The stronger dollar is what is driving prices down I think. The dollar is stronger lately, and that makes precious metal prices go down.
What you are talking about is worth a lot of money. The gold and silver even at melt value is a lot. I would take it to an auction that you...
I see coins as a kind of antiquing. They are small and easily stored, which is a plus. It's fun for me to find a coin in the junk bin that I...
There are some coins I won't part with for a bowl of soup. But if it was a really good bowl of soup, maybe...
I think we should be ready to walk away if need by any time. I try not to get caught up in the need to own things. I plan on selling everything...
It took me a long time to get used to $30 for a silver dollar. I was buying them at around $6 a piece 10 years ago. I may be too stuck on the...
I try to buy coins at near the melt price, so if they are worth more it's a pleasant surprise. I would say that there is next to no market for...
I like the idea of silver going to $22-$25, but I think it will languish around where it's at for a while longer. I would love to buy silver...
It's fun to hear how pawn shops work. They really can't lose on your stuff. I'll bet they get a lot of crap in there which is barely worth...
The price of silver won't make it over $29 lately, but there is still more demand out there for physical silver then there is supply....
I like "junk silver". That means whatever you get it's at say 22 x face value. I have gotten a lot of great coins that way. Most recently I...
I think it's possible, but then a gallon of gas will cost over $20 and we will all be living in Zimbabwe. It's not a good thing, since we may...
I am afraid that I agree. I would like to see the world as a wonderful place and that inflation would gently lift our boats while we all get...
I just got an 1813 pillar dollar and the mint mark was from Peru. The Lima mint. [IMG] It looks just like this one but the mintmark is ME.
I think this may be a good time to buy PM's because the price is down. It's never a good idea to buy at the top of the market. Of course we...
