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...
Not giving tax advice... There is a reason dealers go to shows with stacks of cash. They know some sellers of under $10k of coins to sell wish to...
The difference for me would be standardized weights. Sure, royal seal would fit into the definition of government approved, that many similar...
Wise.com. Better rates and cheaper than my Citigold account even.

2011-2013 was pretty similar. Like I have said, boring periods of no news will drive down premiums eventually, they always have. I am mainly...
Smart man. Mine does. :( She asked to put her "middle tier" jewelry in it a few years ago and I was stupid enough to agree and give it to her. At...
Btw @Randy Abercrombie , did they post weights of the coin? I know some slabbed coins do not have this information, and some sellers also do not,...
https://coinweek.com/us-mint-news/understanding-the-silver-planchet-shortage-at-the-u-s-mint/ Article just posted yesterday about the supply...
I like the control marks. Is that a dog or a sphinx? Either way it is unusual.
I would disagree but slightly. There was a supply shortage early on, premiums went up, and stayed up. Yes, I believe it's mainly demand spike that...

I understand. I have written about this on this site extensively actually. However, that is not what has happened here or in 2010-11. Then as well...
