I wonder how long that will last. Junk silver is still being sold at spot here, and paying less than spot. I wonder how tightly correlated...
I classify nuggets similar to collecting mineral specimens. You will always pay more for it than melt, sometimes much more, but its a hobby in its...
Enjoy it, use it however you like. Yes, they are real and some may be 300+ years old, but are exceedingly common, low value coins. If you want...
I view Pt similar to stocks. They usually proceed an economic uptick worldwide. Yes, sometimes they are wrong, but I believe Pt is moving up the...
