And Spain has Cayon and Cayon. :) Yeah, Spink for British. I get a new one every 7 years or so, kinda like my redbooks.
But it sure does nothing to protect the amount. If you need to have $1500 in a year, paying $1500 for gold today does nothing to assure you some...
Reminds me of Frank Robinson's descriptions. If you like this guys auction, you would like Frank's lists. Not naming names, but someone on...
If you wanted more of a guarantee for a year why not just have cash in a SDB? At least you have an idea of the amount of purchase power loss to...
^This. If the markets do diverge I am sure there will be a lot of talk about it here for quite a while. I have seen dealers talk up...
I never said I was very deep Jim. :) I find a lot of investing is being able to be "simple" and not get overcome with salesman talk, or be...
I would say that's your view Fatima. Personally I have never invested a cent in any of the companies that went bankrupt. The closest is probably...
Depends on what you mean. Do I count junk silver? Bags of wheat cents? Bulk lots of world coins? Multiple strings of Chinese cash? If so, probably...
Lol, good analogy. To be fair, there are also idiots out there, "No, no house ever needs rewired, there is not a house in the country that has...
Hmm, I had never noticed this. I am sure if you post on a thread punking toned coins or gold investing some people will challenge you on your...
So, me pointing out that the EXACT THING you protest PM naysayers as doing is IRRELEVANT when I simply point out PM pundits do the same? How is...
I agree some people are always pessimists. However, I would also point out the opposite. For 30 years or longer I have heard every single year...
I am with Guy. Seems a curious time to get out of stock when they are lowish and get into PM when its had its run. If you are going to do it,...
If it helps Detecto, coins after the 6th century BC generally have writing on them to denote who made them, value, etc etc. Its extremely rare for...
Its great, but still won't stop people listing fakes as genuine. Already about 90% of chinese coins on Ebay are fakes listed as good coins. I get...
I mainly agree, but the silver pack was misleading since it referenced 1792 as the controlling act and it was not. Also, they only reason silver...
I agree sir. I never said they were selling for that much, but then again I don't think junk silver sold for its true value until much later. I...
Did you read about the act of 1873? It is in "proper historical context". The definition of a dollar in a certain number of grains of silver was...
I disagree with both of you. Silver was demonetized in 1873 I believe, and its aftershocks gave rise to William Jennings Bryan's career. Read...
So coat of arms is only post 16th century? I didn't know that. By its fabric you can tell its medieval or later, but I didn't know there is a...
