It's not ? I don't know what else you'd call it - this is its performance for the last 10 years. [ATTACH]
You're certainly not alone in that thinking ! But, when it comes right down to it, as a general rule - they can't. The reason they can't is due to...
Hmmm - I'm reminded of a rather popular saying from a TV show - "You know nothing Jon Snow"
You also have to be very careful about what you say here in the regular sections of this forum. We have rather strict rules about mentioning items...
Rule of thumb - common date $20 gold slabbed and graded as high as MS63 typically sells for about spot plus 10%. The reason that matters is...
