What your friend is getting at is how do you prove to the IRS this money being deposited is money you already paid taxes on? I understand you say...
Yeah, I have considered that. My problem is I have too many interests. I collect ancients of many eras, ancient/medieval SE Asian, etc. I wish I...
Not the top but maybe $100 an ounce more than today. I don't give a rip, I bought it because I like the coin. I have some St Gaudens I got for...
I agree with the 1.20556 number. For all Mexican gold, I just remember 10 pesos is equal to our half eagle, ($5 gold piece). I do not know if we...
