<p>[QUOTE="desertgem, post: 3127969, member: 15199"]Unquestionably, there are many people who have more money than mental acuity, and this is true over a large age and life experience span. Even so, I still see many here who pay over bullion value for "tokens" , "art silver reproductions of real coins", coins with signed by machine prestige labels, "First Issue, Blessed by religious figure, kissed by a politician, hand poured silver bars, etc." as if any have value beyond the bullion as they can make as many as they wish. And it is not just beginners that fall for this, many others do so also and some have the idea , knowing it is risky, of the Barnum law, of always there is a greater fool. I have no problems if people pay overage for an item if it has emotional meaning of more value than the money, but there are too many who think this is investing financially rather than emotionally.</p><p>Jim[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
