How the hell are water vapor, sneezes, and nicotine hitting a coin ? People are smoking while looking at raw coins ? :wideyed:
Roger Burdette has a good section on coppper spotting on Saints/gold coins in his SAINT-GAUDENS book.
By sovereigns you mean what ? What were the premiums on Libertads 5 years ago ? Is the ASE premium thing driving up other coins' premiums ?
The other PMs have massive changes in demand going forward, some positive (silver and copper) and some bigtime negative (palladium and platinum)....
I take it that ASE buyers don't want to pay an extra $9 on a coin that should sell for about $25. New ones are though, right ? If new ASEs are $9...
Futures contracts on the COMEX can diverge from the spot market -- for a time. But eventually the paper and physical markets have to balance....
I think he's saying that $$$ amount in today's dollars is then worth the lower sum. Not sure how he cited the dollar as falling 2/3rds -- I...
No, they are taking advantage of a MONOPOLY given to certain dealers. Let EVERYBODY have access to freshly-struck ASEs and see what happens to...
MPC, FWIW...you can attach 2 pics in the same post if you want. Also, not sure why you still keep getting those short sentence break-offs....you...
If you're trying to maintain purchasing power, then stocks or even bonds (certainly TIPSs) are a better hedge. I think the small % -- and I agree...
Just remember that unlike ASEs....liquidity (what there is for a commodity) is much less for larger quantities like these bars and your floor is...
I think buying at today's prices for silver (or gold) should make us money over time...even with the moronic premiums...but you never know because...
If you're talking about when silver rose to $45/oz., my recollection is that the premiums were maybe $5 or so (about 10% or less). Today, they...
But the price of silver did NOT go up....just the premium. The US Mint's dealer-sanctioned oligopoly created artificially high premium prices to...
This holder appears to be from 2016, long after the WF Hoard coins were graded in the mid-to-late 1990's. I believe that virtually ALL the...
Is that really what happens ? Given that you KNOW there are some really super-wealthy players here, unless you are one of THEM....why play with...
Any other 68 is going to cost multiples of that $17,000....and I think a 1908 WF NM in MS-68 is under $30,000. No other Saint-Gaudens is gonna be...
The 1908 NM's -- WF and non-WF -- are notorious for that "poor strike" look.:(
Both the quantity of 1908 NM's and 1908 WF NM's...combined with some post-1990 Bubble loose grading....has many of the coins as either overgraded...
Randy, I believe I have a Hoard Thread somewhere here that goes into depth on the Wells Fargo Hoard. Suffice to say it refers to where the coins...
