Give her the coin and move on. No brainer.
Unfortunately cars haven't been able to drive past the White House since 1995. Oklahoma City made sure of that.
Sure gold could do just about anything before they ship but that's not really a concern. You lock in the price when you purchase; not when they...
I was looking at the Apmex site over lunch and noticed a pre-Sale for the 2010 BUffalo. At this post it's selling for $1,215.85. ($50 over spot)...
The silver eagle that sold for $32,000 was a 1991. How many 1991 MS70's have you seen in hand? He most likely needed it to fill out his MS70...

That is one of my favorite coins. I'd better look now to make sure none of mine are aluminum ...yikes !

Agreed with spot at $18.29 as I type this, thats about $14,632 worth of silver at spot. That income will need to be listed on your 2010 taxes and...
