I would agree. Tiny gold coins or bars are not great investments. You simply have way too high of a premium. If I wished to own fractional gold, I...
I like Type sets for US collecting since it free you of the terror of date/mm collecting. Plus its just more interesting. At least new addition...
That is a good price for rounds. Thanks for the link.
Yeah, I wish it was in free fall. I was enviously looking at a monster box at a dealer's table Sunday. I wish it would drop about $5 an ounce.
Why don't you post the entirety of this quote like someone did in the other thread? The entirety changes this quote, though you already know that,...
So you are saying simply "gold" is not a monetary standard without verification of purity. I saying from the instance of such governmental...
Tell you what Peace. If you had something worth $500 for sale and someone offered you a troy ounce of metal that contained gold would you accept?...

Name one monetary system backed by pm that survived. Remember, almost every coinage system had a higher value on the coin than the pm was worth....
Bingo. Its a PART of a diversified portfolio. As for the "manipulation" stuff, most of that "information" you will find is truly garbage if you...
How the heck do you get that rubbish in your head? So NOTHING in the world affect pm prices other than US monetary policy? Not jewelry demand in...
1. Of course there are toned ASE's. Unfortunately I didn't store some of my 1986's I bought in 1986 properly, and they are now toned. (Natural)...
Yes, I was referring to the blob of metal under the bust on the obverse. Do you recall seeing such a cutoff?
Its like choosing children man. I could pic my avatar coin, (actually I own about 20 of these now), or one of 200 other "favorites". I am an...
