A good horse in the old west used to be $100, (or more), and a $20 gold piece was nearly an ounce, so......
Why? It was worth way less money relatively than a $100 bill was before 1933 and no one thinks those were "not used in ordinary commerce", right?...
I steer people away from putting ALL of their money in PM. Sue me if you believe that is wrong. How many freaking times have I said having 10-20%...
Nice one, I have been meaning to get one of these. I don't have pics, (of course), but mine would be some Russian 5 kopecks, some very early...
Soter Megas, (Vima Takto), are very common, as are the later issues that are all Kushan. All Yuezhi are scarce, there is not a single more common...
I would agree pricing today is such a distortion relative to each other its making numbers hard to come by. That is I went back to ancient...
I get it from both estimates of relative rarity in the earth, as well as ancient exchange rates which mirrored the same relative worth. It...
Didn't the groundhog in PA, (can't spell the town's name), Phil predict early spring?
Yeah, wait until they start mandating the reverse, registration of all PM PURCHASES by individuals, and not just sales. :( I know we disagree...
I would on the surface not agree with the gold/silver numbers cumulative. I simply say that since somewhere between 12-15 to 1 is the ratio of...
...another brick in the wall, so to speak. This is how freedoms are lost. They are not lost all at once, just a little at a time, like a frog...
I always find it fascinating that a guy in Germany is so knowledgable about US coins. :) I mean, of course it can happen, and many Americans...
I guess I had never even seen things like slabs signed by non-numismatic people. Does anyone in the coin industry ever make markets in such junk,...
You know, I just had a thought, (I know, some here will say that's impossible). Let's just assume for a second that those who say PM is...
Yes. You want to put your "victim" in the air near your protected coins and the sacrificial coin to be more reactive than your protected coins....
I agree with others, it looks ok to me. Its surprising, since I have never seen an authentic colonial in a "Is this real" thread here. Usually...
Sorry but I am the flips in boxes camp. I simply find it most space efficient. I always throw some loose, fresh silver in the SDB with them. Every...
I would ask what is "manipulation" exactly? Sellers want high prices, buyers want low prices. It is kind of funny how small physical buyers of PM,...
HEY, you know what? My NWS stock is down 2.57% today. I want a Congressional hearing, as this is CLEARLY being manipulated by CBS, ABC, and...
Not trying to be a jerk, but you are the one asserting something. Can YOU prove there were massive amounts of paper contracts, (abnormal levels),...
