I agree Cloud, we always almost agree. However I would say oil has political problems. Think of the countries with declining production, Mexico,...
Really? You condone forging US coin designs? I know its a "bullion" item, but it still is legal tender. I don't see how the man is not behind...

Or invest in the US miner that mines them, Molycorp. I did. I am not making a stock recommendation, especially since I own it. Just posting...
Like others have said, no way to know without a knowledgable coin collector going through them. I will give you a quick hint though. If there...
I will agree completely. It is WHY toned coins used to be dipped regularly. I like the coin though, and I know its close to the toned/corrosion...
