Most of those 23 million are only millionaires because of their house. If the housing market goes down or they continue to live there they are not...
Lol I might have 1500 gold and electrum coins too but I have a wife who loves international travel and 3 kids. Harder getting coin money in that...
Very common form of toning on silver. I have seen hundreds of identical examples.
Never say that sir. I thought the same for much of my life but I worked hard, improved myself, and about 8 years ago bought simply quite a lot of...
Advocating for fiat currency that is properly managed is a much different animal than defending what countries are currently doing sir. Properly...
The gold is there. There is basically nothing to gain from selling it. Let's do the math, 265 million ounces times $5000 is $1.35 trillion, and...
The main thing I can comment on is the fact I have been there many times over decades. I do not ever recall seeing anyone in Thailand wearing...

Coins from Mithradates the Great are fun no matter which city its from. Always a cool little collection, given the callbacks to classic Greek...
I would say in general I am both Eclectic and Jack of All Trades, but on the other hand I believe I know more about Sogdian, Hunnic, and Sasanian...
Yeah, I cannot comprehend the phrase "enough coins" either. :) Like Randy, mine is mostly 90%, and measured in pounds, not ounces, but would still...
Yes sir. If in the past a 65 was $800 over melt today it might be $200, (just guessing from prior movements), so now to trade a lower grade for...
Its a great point for collectors nervous about PM prices. Every time it spikes like this premiums compress for a while. Use this time to swap PM...
I got it from CNG, I think just a few months after my daughter, (named Irene) was born. So, maybe 5 years ago. I think about $2800 plus commission...
