Oh yeah. I get it. It is a fine line to be certain. Last November my top saleslady’s husband was taken for $3000.00 because he fell for the IRS...
Ok... You asked for it. I am now wealthy beyond words... Three memorial cents and several crusty whatever’s... [ATTACH] Thirty minutes in and my...
Yeah.... My dealer tells me the same thing. Every week he has a new selection of the slabbed bullion brought in from a family members estate. They...
