Just a stray thought here, but I wonder if the cost of production takes into account that most silver is mined as a byproduct. Primary silver...
Welcome to CoinTalk, Khay! Without pictures it's hard to give a reliable diagnosis, although I probably wouldn't be able to give you one with the...
I don't follow. The values are based on the number of loans regardless of where the money goes or how many banks are involved. You can only take...
Very interesting. So the function is to regulate membership in the good old boys club. Not quite as we are lead to believe. I'm happy to...
The thing I like about maples is the 99.99% purity, both gold and silver. That's the purity needed for silver used in solar panels which are...

Sorry to dig up a post from the first page, but I couldn't help myself. I must respectfully disagree that metals should be read the same as any...
It's always nice to see people agree on something hahaha. Guano corrected a post of mine somewhere else about fractional reserve banking. I had...
