Everyone has different opinions on relative pricings and forward looking expectations. If you believe metals will outperform stocks or bonds in...
Nice set OP. Isn't it weird about completing a set. I always feel a letdown really. Its weird, but completing it takes the thrill of the chase...
Um, as pm investors I do not think we should be throwing stones at other market's declines..... All markets go up and go down. Without a...
Great post TIF. Coins five and six seem to have the same issue on the side of the head as Doug's. Is that just countermark deterioration that...
Just an update, and I am happy to say the seller is a pretty bad photographer. Much better detail in hand. In hand it appears the details are more...

Its been hit of miss with me. Some things maintaining, others a little weakness. I have had a little more success in the more prestigious auctions...
