We are questioning it since they were worth about 30x face then for melt. 10x seemed very low, and I am sure there are hundreds of members here...
But you have the "disease" of coin collecting man! :) Same as the rest of us. Personally I would be tickled pink with abolishing $1 and $2 bills...
Yep, until those items start languishing in inventory for 6 months while all current sales go to competitors. If silver went to $15 for three...
The only reason that the mint even STARTED making silver dollars after 1904 was because Congress sold off our Morgan dollar reserves to Europe...
I am not screaming it, but you should ask others about it. The main danger I think of is since it is not BU or AU, those surfaces really shouldn't...
Nope, not for a while. This was my experience in the 80's, the dealers were always trying to recoup prices from 6 months ago almost the entire...
Great post, thank you. So, gold and platinum is even more lopsided to shorts versus longs. Why all of the conspiracy theory about silver and no...

Ok, if it is for your gratification, and you can justify it to yourself that way, then have a great time. I waste money on coins and coin books as...
Good advice here. I would say to not tell her you are investing in bullion, but that you are a coin collector. Hobbies are usually viewed fairly...
There is, what is lacking is political courage. The malaise we see today is simply due to government intervention in the markets. Housing would...
I agree completely. Man, this is a speculative play, don't pay penalties to put retirement money at risk! Seriously, there are people who did...
Ok, that is a fair point. If the current economy stays the same, and the don't fix the dollar, not bad thoughts. I was just saying what if they...
Maybe in other areas of the world its relatively rare, but in the US, since we are so close to Mexico, you find these in abundance. I have 8-10 of...
