My Dad said he finally took my advice and got into silver. His broker assures him that his (paper) silver is just as good, and more secure, than the eagles I have buried in the yard. SMH

Sad, pathetic, tragic. I told my siblings 3 years ago it was time to hop on it. Only one bro listened.

I have a feeling they'll be forever pissed at me for "not trying harder" to tell them. Reminding me of what the 'jab' did to so many families.

smh, but mostly sigh. . . .

I have to give them credit on coming around (the hard way) on the Covid.

"Get it in your own possession." -- Bix Weir Do you have any junk dimes? We need more people with junk silver coins to get the constitutional money economy started. Also, having the smallest increment of silver, which is the 2g junk silver dime, gives a person a lot of leverage in a trade. If you have 4 or 5 dimes, you might get more out of them, than for a whole silver eagle (which weighs almost 16 dimes). It might be worth it to spend 2 ounces of silver to get 1 ounce of junk. That means somebody is going to be incentivized to make junk coinage (which is 10% copper for durability). Right now, you can buy government junk, but there isn't enough, really.

Unfortunately, we don't have any gold mines in our neighborhood. Nonetheless, my tool manic husband immediately bought a couple of college science class grade tenth gram triple beam scales on E-Bay. I thought they were for checking authenticity of coins, but he said they are not sensitive enough, He uses it for weighing out gunpowder and bread ingredients! He evaluates coins by their appearance, the year of issue, and in addition, the auditory signature
