[QUOTE="johnmilton, post: 24808848, member: 101855"]Sorry for my ignorance, by what is a “PM” besides the time of day? As for gold being overvalued, the high retail price for a $20 gold piece when I was in high school was $75. Dealers sold beat up ones for slightly under $50. When I finished grad school in 1980, they were about $135. I remember it getting to over $800 in the late 1970s. That was way too high for the time. I have an NGC certified $20 gold I bought for around $400 when I was a dealer, which I kept. The U.S. dollar has turned into “lucky bucks.” Inflation is destroying its value, which is why gold is so high. One thing I’ve noticed when gold was too and due for a significant correction. For brief periods, I have see dealers sell circulated $10 and $20 gold pieces for less than melt. It does not matter what the spot price of gold is, you can bet it’s coming down.[/QUOTE]
