<p>[QUOTE=&quot;TheMont, post: 2457202, member: 80121&quot;]One last comment on accepting new members and then I will only make posts concerning coins and currency. I don&#039;t know how it is done, but I have received several private posts from people who agreed with my contention that new members are are not welcomed into the forum community. So where I could be dismissed as being overly sensitive, apparently others agree with me and it also tells something when they use private posts for fear of regular members jumping on them. Their stories were interesting.</p><p><br /></p><p>The Congress, which regulates the Mints coinage, has just passed a new and very interesting law, the law now reads that U.S. silver coins will be no LESS than 90% gold or silver. The mint has to buy its silver from US sellers, they make it a purity of .999, the Mint then ships it to the Perth Mint where it adds 10% copper to make the silver 90% to comply with the old law. It costs more to do this than if the Mint just made the silver coins .999, this is probably why the law was changed. Let&#039;s see what happens to those 90% Silver Proof Sets in the near future.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
