Wow...what specific stuff are we talking about there ? So baseball cards, NFTs, rare coins, and RobinHood. What can go wrong ? :D
Anything with Carson City -- silver or gold -- is hot. Affordable medium-graded gold or silver is attracting buyers. Myself, I like higher...
One year I think 71 (proofs) were struck only. :wideyed:
My 2010 1/2 Ounce Libertad: [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
The dropoff from 1981 over the years/decades is fascinating. I know that it was the end of an epic 20-fold rise in the price of gold, but the...
What about common Saints or Libertys -- anybody utilize them for bullion substitutes ?
And often way way less. Mintages and survivals are highly volatile, more so than for Saints.

Yup, except that it isn't happening and nobody is taking advantage of it. :D
It wasn't China, it was Japan with "Mr. Copper" and Sumitomo manipulating via forgery/fraud the market. They lost billions doing so when the...
