Thanks for the background Jim. So ETF's would only be a canary, if the traded price exceeds or is less than the NAV? Still, I am sure stuff is...
I am in the cities, so would be a heck of a drive myself. Plus, local shows here do not have much in the way of ancients, I doubt a smaller show...
Yeah, but we tried to warn them, right sir? We said over and over its a buy and hold, don't get upset if it drops, think of it as a buying...
Robert at www.calgarycoins.com also has some nice background info. Also, just read some older threads here. Some of us here are just full of...
Lol, about the best piece of advice I have read on CT. If we KNEW, we would be sipping pina coladas on our private island somewhere. I sure as...
I agree. I have wondered out loud many times the extra volatility being added to PM by these non-traditional investors. I never have nor will I...
I would counter sir that your inference as to someone's "lack of morality" is just that, and inference. Not based upon any facts. Let's look at...
I would say to remember that it would take tens of thousands of local coin collectors "buying" to offset just one ETF being forced to sell, that...

Dang your right. Maple leafs for less than 27 because silver is just getting clobbered. Ytd loss now on silver is over 18 percent.
I agree. Those who are bullish on pm and ride this out long term will do better than those here six months ago saying its going to the moon, and...
Buy prices of 90percent is interesting, but i don't thini ase production, limited as they are by law, is much of a factor. Weird, buy/sell spread...
Early 80's mainly. I think this is a large reason some are "out" of silver. Big wholesalers hedge, but many others may not. They are afraid to buy...
I carried around all winter a gordian III silver antininuous. To be fair though, not intentionally. I forgot i had bought it and put it in my coat...
Yes, but this cuts both ways. It limits to an extent the economic incentive to produce more, but also limits the economic disincentive of low...
I love three graces coins. Yet another sub collection i wish i had more time or money for. You shouldn't post such nice coins and educate us...
Idk about that. There was a thin paperback book put out identifying some Khazar coins. They appear arabic, but supposedly had some identifying...
