I wonder about palladium. Anyone have a good reason for the huge move? I know its mainly mined in Russia. Anyone think they intentionally been...
Or I actually have a spare copy if someone needs it.
I have been in the same situation. When I have seen fake coins in an auction, I have notified the auctioneer. You can learn a lot about...
Rules of thumb like this are worth about as much as you pay for them. How much should be in equities depends a lot more than what you have in...
