The dealer is correct that the pegasus side is the obverse. Obverse is simply the die in the anvil, and it can be proven the pegasus was. We are...
I agree with you Fatima that they why is the important aspect. To me the gyrations are nothing more than the fact that silver has historically...
When was that? Even in the early 60's when my parents bought their first home this was not true, and it has not been true since then I am sure of.
When I was cleaning them, 99% of the time the harshest chemical I used was distilled water. Soak them in distilled water, and replace the water...
I am sorry to hear about it as well LD. I am sure all of us are keeping an eye out for you. I am sad to say I think these will continue for quite...
Sorry if my post seemed harsh, but many like to throw around words here, and we need to remember that we shouldn't be accusing parties of felonies...

Very astute observations yourself Cloud.

I think the market has the right to stabilize itself. Maybe I am being goofy, but the last margin hike was volatility to the upside, it was...
