I do not believe the article said he bought that many, that was the amount the bank was willing to sell to him at that price they quoted him....
You can judge "worst" within a culture and time sir. Problem is when you bring modern morality back to ancient times, you are judging people after...
I cannot remember the dealer name, but he did a series of articles for I believe Coin World detailing large deals from the 50s to 70s. He...
Sure, I follow you. However, I also believe there are some still pretty good stashes of gold in banks around the world, just like there are some...
I agree, but some wish to bring their modern politics into discourse of right or wrong regarding the ancient world. Condemning the past based upon...
I would think we get a lot more newbies here due to CT showing up highly on Google. Some people get tired of such questions, some newbies are...
The ignore feature saved me here. Never been banned, but warned once or twice on the PM forum due to a couple of people. A few well placed...
This, and if the dollar weakens because the world realizes how much in debt we are, (this debt will accelerate since these higher rates are going...
I see nothing of an XF. It is an AU or BU. I am terrible at photos between the two. I would have to tilt the coin to see if I see luster breaks....
Me too Frank, except I got a roll in 1986. I was excited when they first came, then for some reason lost that excitement. But $7 seems like the...

Btw sir, I too wish that everything will be fine with the Hurricane coming in. Reading its now a Cat4, almost Cat5. Hope everyone on CT in the...

I hear ya, but every locale has issues. Want to trade me FL hurricanes for MN -30 actual temps, (plus wind chill)? I am looking around where to...
I am with others, never say never. When I was younger I was not sure I would ever own gold, yet I worked hard, promotions, etc and today maybe I...
I am not surprised by it since remember, the incoming of the group at large was from ANOTHER forum they left en masse. So I kind of expected them...
Yeah, I will be there but most likely Saturday. Given MN, usually not any luck with ancients but will cruise around and see what trips my trigger....
Sorry if a little off topic. In my head I was thinking about long term, how too many new pm investors buy high and sell low, etc, and how this...
Yeah, I was similar to you. I last added any significant gold or platinum around $1200 AU and $850 PT. Platinum is back down there but nothing to...
Long term is the key. Too many new investors jump in when its "hot", then bail when its boring again. Getting to retire fairly well is not...
