Your post was excellent. I would add the following: Gold historically has lagged stocks AND bonds because it doesn't have a dividend or interest...
An interview with JA and Maurice Rosen from 2008 when CAC was just starting up is VERY informative and illuminating, especially when you see where...
How much higher ?
How does 5x work, JM ?
Why is that and why/how is that significant ?
$2,050 about and holding. That's not bad. Anybody see any commentary about that spike up to $2,150 ? o_O
No, actually I don't think it means it's a scratch. A die crack is a deformation in the die which repeats on multiple strikes. This line is...

1927'S in MS-67 are ~ $12,000. A 66-CAC is ~$5,000 which shows you that the market expects the chances of seeing an increase of $7K in value are...
There's some 67's going for sale tonight on GC, a few more next week. I'll report back....:cigar::cigar:
I think your 66 quote is in the ballpark, but I think a 66+CAC shouuld be LESS than an MS-67 which can be had for about $7,000 (maybe a bit more...
Keep in mind my previous post about most 1908 NM's having a tough time getting a CAC sticker from JA, and this was even true years ago when CAC...
I wish him well and my fingers are crossed, but.... JA is very tough on gold in general and more so Saints....and the 1908 NM's have a VERY low...
