It&#039;s a COIN show!!!) because they&#039;re soooo enamoured with making a killing off of their gold and silver ingots and tokens.&nbsp; The attendees are almost as bad:&nbsp; They walk around in desperation, with words like &quot;dollar collapse&quot; on their lips, drooling over the display cases.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Now I&#039;m sure plenty of you are into gold and silver, for many reasons, and I&#039;m not second-guessing the wisdom of investing in them.&nbsp; SO: I&#039;m not AGAINST gold and silver, it just gets my gander up when I go to a 80+ table coin show (a coin show that I was always able to enjoy in years past) and I can&#039;t find a single decent 1931-S or 1914-D Lincoln cent or a single Korean or Japanese coin because the sellers &quot;left all of that stuff at home&quot; (a remark I heard quite a bit).&nbsp; I mean, really?&nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Now you know how I really feel about this topic, excuse me while I go take a Tylenol.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
