It is beyond my grading ability to choose between PCGS and NGC. The important thing for most collectors is to stick with the top two. However, I...
That particular claim has already been refuted as incorrect. I read a lot of articles where the author will claim that the Chinese plan to do...
Keep in mind that John Reade is the metals strategist for UBS and puts out advice for traders, not investors. His track record is that whenever...
The long term graph above looks like a spike because of the way it is drawn and the scale. But if you play around with the percentage increases...
