<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Conder101, post: 3217862, member: 66&quot;]I learned patience ordering from the Mint back in the early 70&#039;s.&nbsp; Order your proof and mint sets in February, checks were cashed immediately (no credit cards accepted), no way to track your order or cancel it, and your sets showed up in November.&nbsp; If they sold out it might take them a year or more to let you know, and that they would be sending you a refund at some point. (The law that requires a company to give you the option of cancelling an order if they can&#039;t ship it within 30 days does not apply to the government)</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>But who owns those other deposits?&nbsp; It may be like with platinum.&nbsp; Most platinum group metals come from Russia.&nbsp; Our Platinum and Paladium eagles have to use domestically mined metal.&nbsp; There is only one significant source of Platinum group metals in the US and that mine is owned by a Russian company.&nbsp; So we have to buy our domestic Platinum from Russia.&nbsp; Russia also owns a very significant portion of US mined Uranium as well.&nbsp; I wouldn&#039;t be surprised if those other rare earth metals deposits aren&#039;t owned by China as well.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
