This is my opinion. I rarely leave feedback, (I would if Ebay had a generic, "transaction fine" that I could click for all open purchases), but I...
Man, I see people put more thought into this than I do. I actually keep my guns in the safe to protect the guns, not the other way around! That...
But is the market allows it, then its not a default. Only if the contract states that settlement has to be in physical delivery would I view it as...
+1 Most people I know, even the ones with a lot of cash, simply have zero desire to own PM. They own gold for jewelry, and have sterling...
They can raise margin requirements up to the point where no leverage at all is allowed. It is their market, and they can set the rules. There can...
Btw, the two holes were put there to wear the coin. In the middle east and India coins that people want to wear have two holes put in them so the...

Good thoughts, but I would expand your idea to, "if you are into coin collecting for "investment" as well as enjoyment, then you should consider...
Maybe I am just lazy, or I don't think the feedback system is really worth anything because of all of the games played with it over the years....
But the point was, if there was adequate gold and silver, why would any of these notes have been printed at all if people "always" prefer gold and...
A liberty nickel collection is also a great idea. In high grades they are attractive coins, but you would never know it when you see all of the...
