$125 an ounce? In the 70's I am guessing, for a short while from the $35 but illegal to own it to the $990 an ounce in 1980 then back down to $400's.
I simply use .73 and .78 for US coins, (halves down, and silver dollars respectively). Close enough. I ignore 40% etc since they are always worth...
Not to make a big deal about it sir, and I understand your assumption based upon population profiles at most coin shows, but women have had a huge...
