Not classic inflation, but my view is that the Asians are wanting product back in exchange for dollars, not just more notes. In agriculture, my...
Assur, thanks for posting the coin. We have a few Chinese collectors here, I used to collect more of them a couple of years ago. This one is...
This is the case. If the IRS can prove you sold something, the burden of proof to minimize taxes due, (including purchase price), it on the...
Mine weighs probably 80-100 lbs minimum. I even have some numismatic coins in there, and some paper currency as well. Yeah, it gets very heavy.
Not disagreeing with you man, just pointing out that percentages are a better judge of markets. Humans have a weird attachment to certain numbers,...
That's fair Inflexion, I was simply asking why people who say the Fed is motivating them invest in silver so much. To me, gold, platinum, and many...
Lol, me a Keynesian. When I taught Econ I would spend days trying to talk Keynesians out of it. Also, I made out like a bandit in 1980 by selling...
Right there, the way you put things that if I do not agree with you I am either IGNORANT OR DELUSIONAL. Who said anything about selling PM's for...
Just remember that dollar gains are not relevant. I mean that a $1 gain in a $40 market is not more severe than a $.25 gain in a $10 market. I...
Look them up in Krause. You will get better value as well if you presort them into fineness for the dealer. He will have to do this anyway, so you...
I would have it checked out for tooling. The details seem a little too crisp. THe slab already calls out smoothing, which is less offensive than...

Passant, going back to my point, if one assumes an inflationary environment, then that assumption includes the prospect of increased NOMINAL...
What I read was that they were trying to mimic the look and feel of the new alloy nickels to minimize US citizens frustration. Hard to say that if...
Yeah, low silver inclusion, and the current Treasury rule bannign melting, makes these a less desirable silver play. Same reason 40% aren't worth...
I don't look, was there a lot of volatility? To me PM is a contra asset, if I find myself monitoring the market frequently, it would be because I...
Worst yet, try it on a 1600 year old Roman AE4, or a tiny little Greek. Man they made some tiny coins back then. :) On the flip side, especially...
Go back and re-read your last five posts... your claim to absolute knowledge far exceeds the claim that the future is unknowable. And of course...
To me, supply ALWAYS equals demand granted a free market. It has to, absent government intervention. Prices will change, but the market will put...
Passant, the only absolutes I refer to are that future performance is unknowable, and that assuming any inflation that eventually all commodities...
