The pawn shop is starting to put prices on silver and gold again. Cleaned Morgans for $99, an ASE for $120. Gold still isn't marked, but the...
I forget, does profit-taking count as "manipulation" and "suppressing the price"? :troll:
I'd love to see someone submit one of these to a TPG. If I'm doing my calculations right, a 12mm disc of .999 gold (density 19.32g/cc) weighing...
I mean, they just officially announced that they've stopped making cents...
Yeah, you wouldn't have been able to pry that pattern out of my hands. I own no patterns myself, but maybe someday.
Hey, everybody, remember when 1999 silver proof sets were pulling $400? Or, if not, at least remember when they traded at a substantial premium to...

Mint set packaging. The coins are heat-sealed between sheets of plastic. They can be cut apart with scissors to handle individual coins without...
I think we're both assuming that the difference is strictly due to rim height/thickness. Any chance that the devices contribute? Do the earlier...
Not a bad idea to do some rebalancing of our own holdings as well, I suppose, but it's more work with physical.
I've posted previously about the pawnshop I sometimes visit near work. They don't know much about coins, but they do know about gold and silver....
Someone spent that?! Probably thought they were getting away with something when it was accepted...
We've got an exiled Venezuelan musician here in town, Larry Bellorín. I think my wife's actually gotten to play with him once or twice. He was...
Geeze! Acceptable as payment of war debt, and useful as sling ammo for the next war!
