In reply to Craig. Kaiser, With the Orange wave, I mean Red wave, sweeping through the country, PM prices are already slated to drop. Ag spot currently is $32.04, down .74c.! You don't usually see that kind of spot movement in Ag. Could this translate to lower coin prices? Only time will tell.

In reply to Antonio. If buying silver as an investment now, you've probably missed the boat. Remember that ageless axiom, 'Buy low, Sell high'. I bought a majority of my silver coins, including Ag kilo coins, when Ag spot was in the teens. I like to buy when most don't want it! If I needed to sell, I'd be in a rich position now. Oh, and I don't buy from HSN.

I couldn't find out much about, "The Mint also developed and successfully scaled up a new electroplating process that is transforming the manufacturing of bronze plated circulation products by eliminating the use of cyanide." It seems ultimately aimed at reducing the cost of producing coins, eventually eliminating copper and nickel and making coins from brass plated iron planchets.

Canadian silver 99.99% one ounce coins cost a lot less than the same amount of silver in a U.S. coin or medal. Serious consideration if investing in silver.

In the previous thread, John Q said: “Fins up…. Oh tips up Cali” True that, as if your tips are down you get catapulted from the chair and a good chance a getting your skull cracked, by the chair as it swings back forwards, heading for a return trip around the Bull Wheel! Serious ouch and sometimes can result in a trip to the ER! Also, congrats on what I’m guessing is a VF35 or EF40 1892 CC Liberty Head Double Eagle! Wow, on how the price for one of those, triples in an uncirculated grade to nearly $15K!
