I would say that's your view Fatima. Personally I have never invested a cent in any of the companies that went bankrupt. The closest is probably...
Depends on what you mean. Do I count junk silver? Bags of wheat cents? Bulk lots of world coins? Multiple strings of Chinese cash? If so, probably...
Lol, good analogy. To be fair, there are also idiots out there, "No, no house ever needs rewired, there is not a house in the country that has...
Hmm, I had never noticed this. I am sure if you post on a thread punking toned coins or gold investing some people will challenge you on your...
So, me pointing out that the EXACT THING you protest PM naysayers as doing is IRRELEVANT when I simply point out PM pundits do the same? How is...
I agree some people are always pessimists. However, I would also point out the opposite. For 30 years or longer I have heard every single year...
I am with Guy. Seems a curious time to get out of stock when they are lowish and get into PM when its had its run. If you are going to do it,...
If it helps Detecto, coins after the 6th century BC generally have writing on them to denote who made them, value, etc etc. Its extremely rare for...
Its great, but still won't stop people listing fakes as genuine. Already about 90% of chinese coins on Ebay are fakes listed as good coins. I get...
I mainly agree, but the silver pack was misleading since it referenced 1792 as the controlling act and it was not. Also, they only reason silver...
I agree sir. I never said they were selling for that much, but then again I don't think junk silver sold for its true value until much later. I...
Did you read about the act of 1873? It is in "proper historical context". The definition of a dollar in a certain number of grains of silver was...
I disagree with both of you. Silver was demonetized in 1873 I believe, and its aftershocks gave rise to William Jennings Bryan's career. Read...
So coat of arms is only post 16th century? I didn't know that. By its fabric you can tell its medieval or later, but I didn't know there is a...
I disagree Guy. There is no "law", only a treasury rule that has not been tested in courts. I believe when the percentage of copper cents in...
Its always about what you want to do with it. For general coin viewing I agree with a 5x. For errors and the like a 10-20x would be preferred. For...
Good point. Listen, when you go there, there are tons of lots, you are bored because there is a bunch of worthless garbage being sold, you are...
While I liked your table Fatima and appreciated you putting it together, I do not think it proves why we are talking about gold, nor prove that...
But his point, a fair one in my eyes, is ALL commodities would be affected by money printing. If it takes half an ounce of gold to buy a bale of...
Looks like a lot of lists from auctioneers who haven't a clue. Beware of lies like "1973 90% silver Eisenhower dollar". THey were 40% or clad,...
