<p>[QUOTE=&quot;John King, post: 2411582, member: 78398&quot;]You would think that S. America would have zillions of silver coins.&nbsp; Mexico as well.&nbsp; The thing is there is a world silver spot market so that always comes into the equation.&nbsp; I looked at a chart of gold spot prices over the last 100 years and there have been at three spikes&nbsp; and long periods of decades when gold lost value.&nbsp; Really horrible investment unless you can read the future and the value of gold makes up much of the value of most gold coins (silver as well but not so much).&nbsp; It seems just after a economic crash the price of both gold and silver takes off, but nobody can predict these things.&nbsp; I don&#039;t remember anyone predicting the financial end of the world in 2006-7, but by 2011 the price of gold and silver were off the charts and then slide but had uptick lately.&nbsp; I feel better when I just collect coins for the hell of it.&nbsp; You know in 1933 FDR stopped sale of gold and gold coins in vaults was melted down thus making gold coins of late 1920&#039;s so valuable.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
