A few more days and people will probably start complaining about not buying silver on the dip. It's a wild ride but I don't think it's over.
It's difficult to know which stories about the silver shortage are real and which ones aren't. But the price used to be in single digits and now...
I no longer buy coins that aren't slabbed unless they are basically bullion coins, and I wouldn't break one out. I have the same concern that you...
I'd stop collecting and get the education. No question about it. The statistics show that it increases the opportunity [not guarantee] for...
So to summarize... The world is a dangerous place. There is always risk. Safes, safe deposit boxes, guns, dogs, etc... might reduce some...

Silver has always been pretty volitile. The move this week is no big deal in the long term. Although it might seem that $4 is a huge drop, you...

About twice a year, gold and silver take a breathtaking plunge in price. Sometimes it happens quickly like today, sometimes over several days....
I think some people underestimate just how dangerous it is out there.

Very nice coins. Very good thread. I don't own any cap bust halves, but I might have to get one.
Excellent choice. In the long run, you'll be a better person for having gone through this.
I personally don't understand how something like this can be done. I can barely get into the site at work that I have access to. In car terms, I...
My son uses a Bounty Hunter that he purchased in Radio Shack and it works very well for him.
As I mentioned in another thread, I've never attended a coin show. I guess I would feel like a sheep attending the wolf convention.
