I don't see too many coins going for way below the HA estimates that are usually provided. I don't track lots of series, so maybe you and...
1907 High Relief Saint. And I could have bought one in the mid-1980's in MS condition for under $15,000.
Interesting..... Don't the coins HAVE to end up in the public's hands at some point ? If dealers buy at FUN or on HA because they know they can...
They should have minted money....they're supposed to be middlemen buying and selling volatility and the metal, not speculating on the price....
Bear Stearns CLEARING operations held the positions, not Bear Stearns or JPM Chase. These firms do NOT speculate in PM's. The regulators would...
No argument, but the CFTC and COMEX changed the rules in the middle of the game.
They got hurt too, and nobody told anybody to buy. The price quadrupled in 4 months, I don't know where people thought it was going to, $1,000 an...
I know....I get it...but so much of what you read nowadays is by people writing something without doing their research (not you, the original...
No they don't. They are a clearing firm for various holders of the coin. JP Morgan Chase owns less silver than most of you. :D
Thought gold coins should have their own dedicated thread. It's not only often an investment in a numismatic piece, but a bullion investment,...
I think there is something to be said for meeting others at shows like FUN after conversing on forums like this for months or years. I know I...
Yes, and there are plenty of ungraded Morgans in those 2x2 white squares....but does moving them from ungraded to graded over...
Anybody else ever seen this ? I thought this was copper spotting when I first saw it. Then I looked at it under an 8x lens and saw it's on the...
2015 5-Ounce Wedge-Tailed Eagle: I love this design. When I pay a rich premium to silver it better be because of some artistic features that I...
As someone who has belonged to one of the largest and most active astronomy clubs for 20+ years, I can say that people do leave the hobby and have...
Doug, I agree entirely with your post. I think the reason why we haven't seen price moves play out like you imply they should is because we've...
I am looking to submit some coins to CAC, but I believe I can only get on their Wait List right now. I also have to join the ANA, which isn't a...
Across the board ? How much do you think they need to fall ? 20% ? or 50% ?
Doug, if I did an R-squared or some other regression analysis I would find a link between those 2 data series. It would NOT be a perfect...
Coins like the 1923-D that I bought or commons in high grade condition (i.e., 1924 and 1927 Saints) will trade with BOTH bullion and numismatic...
Separate names with a comma.
