Peter, I wish to have my account closed and all comments, posts, and discussions removed from the forum. Over the years I have lost confidence in...

Will do, but that doesn't consist of the mint only producing what they have orders for to prevent a loss and magically getting the package to me...
Once before you sent me on a wild goose hunt looking for information in the mints annual reports and after thorough reading it wasn't in any of...
Yes they do an initial run. I purchased an 2008 W Platinum Eagle 1/10 and 1/4 oz earlier this year when they first went on sale. After the...
I think you need to read my last post with a little more attention. The mint does as infact "just buy metals, strike the coins and then wait for...

To have a naturally toned coin reflecting in the light is a lot like a piece of art. Its unique, has character, and again most of all..unique.
This coin is the worst attempt at AT. When I look at this all I can imagine is some 300 lb man wearing an apron leaning over a easy bake oven with...
Exactly. I have a number of coins that I may have overpaid for them, but I spent a while looking for something particular and do not have plans to...
I sold my platinum at $1875 -1950 with an average cost of $770 from several ounces in 1997-1999. Would have sold at $2300 after S. Africa cut...
