    Welcome to coin collecting!
    Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery?

    A few weeks ago, Coin World ran a story about a dealer being "taken" by buying one of these. It had been gold plated and he paid the 1 oz. gold price. Lesson: If you're going to call yourself a dealer, you had better know what you're doing. "Oro" is Spanish for gold. "Plata" means silver.
