<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ed Zak, post: 22624, member: 824&quot;]Palladium comes from the platinum group of metals and it is noble.&nbsp; Like gold and platinum, a nobel metal will not tarnish or oxidize.&nbsp; Palladium is used primarily in the auto industry, circuit boards, and dentistry.&nbsp; Japan is the number one buyer of palladium for their auto industry.</p><p><br /></p><p>The trouble with palladium is that 70% of it is found in Russia.&nbsp; It wasn&#039;t too long ago (January of 2001) that palladium surpassed $1,100 per ounce.&nbsp; This was because the Russians hoarded the metal and were literally driving palladium customers crazy as they stated they would ship and then they would not.&nbsp; Today, palladium is hovering in the low $200 range.</p><p><br /></p><p>As for coins, I have seen coins from the country of Tonga (who came out with coins in 1967) and most recently from China.&nbsp; Palladium has the same color as platinum and can be easily confused with the latter.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I have seen palladium as low as $77 per ounce (early 90&#039;s) to the ultilmate high in 2001.</p><p><br /></p><p>Good luck![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
