Here's some food for thought... Much is made about the cent costing more to make than face value. Here are some questions. How much money are...
I'm not sure I follow this. Could you clarify "It costs more to market" ? It costs more than what ?
Regarding the OP... prices of Low Gold coins have trended up with bullion (as always). What other trends are folks seeing ?
Yes, it is sad, and my heart goes out to the gent. Often, coin insurance policies specifically exclude abandonment; if one walks away from them,...
What is existing US law ?
I may be wrong, but IMO that isn't a significant factor. It's a two way street - we are by far the #1 importer of their goods, and they need to be...

Pass. Fo sho.
How I would love to be there. Oregon is fabulous. I used to live in Idaho, and we took the kids to the Wallawa mountains from time to time. I...
Well said, Guy. The key word here is "fear". It's easier to have a high growth rate if one starts off so far behind. In many respects, China's...
True. But every so often they do...
