Hi, seth,
Looks like we did alright in 1980. I take it you were born in 1962. I was in the Army in 1962 and wanted to go to Germany when it was time to re-up but they said no so I got out. That was a life changing decision, but that’s another story.

Gold down $41.30 right now! Silver down over $1. Amazing! Looks like we got our wish that gold goes way down before the gold half dollar is issued!
I was a senior in high school in 1980 & had just come back from living in Germany for 3 years where I bought every silver coin I could afford at flea markets & the coin shop & savings bank in the town near our NSA base where I worked summers at the base restaurant. I sold most of that silver 1 day after the high in 1980 & made a small fortune that helped with my college fund! Good times!

I surely remember 1980. I sold a lot of silver bars that year. I see right now gold is at $1275. If it stays below $1300 that will lower the mints gold prices. Hope it keeps going down.

I was just looking at the numbers themselves for today only actually in my posting.
But, manipulation has happened of course. Remember the Hunt brothers trying to corner the silver market in 1979-80 & silver went to its all-time historic high in 1980 of about $50.35 an ounce – a record that stands to this day!

Are you saying that the gold and silver futures are manipulated? Na, you wouldn’t say that. Or would you?

Is it a coincidence that the gold & silver futures figures are exactly what the London PM closing figures are (futures up & London down) by exactly $4.40 or 0.3 percent for gold & silver by exactly 34 cents or 1.8 percent also?!
