TV gimmics VS. the rise of precious metals.....

You wouldn't even need to look at the price of gold and silver to know that it is up. The amount of commercials on regular TV pimping everthing from Morgan silver dollars to shipwreck gold coins has gone way up. I really laugh at the one from collectors mint where they make you think that you're getting some of the last remaining coins and they come in Brilliant Uncirculated to Fine condition as if Fine is better than BU. Oh yeah, just to make you think these are super rare.........Strict limit of 5 coins per caller.

Yeah but if you sweet talk the guy or gal I bet they waive the 5 coin limit.

I know where there are a few treasures that lie on the ocean floors off the coast of Ocean City Maryland.

I was fishing when I was 14 years old, my first charter fishing trip for Tuna, I was reeling the fish in for approx 1 hour 20 mins and when the 1st mate went to gaft the fish one of my friends was trying to help the mate, he slipped, knock me out of the chair, my glasses and neck chain with my wallet went flying in the depths of the ocean. I had a old morgan that I used for marking my golf ball when I played golf, and I had over $200.00 dollars in twenty dollar bills that are somewhere in the ocean.

I was told although my morgan was old it was a rare coin, but what did I know at the age of 14, hell I thought I was a big shot having a old silver dollar that everyone wanted. It was probably in Fine condition as I understand grades to be today. Now my glasses put me back over $300.00. Glad my mother always got me a extra pair because I play football and couldn't afford contacts back then. Thank the good lord for laser surgery today, I only have reading glasses now.

I've seen the one commercial where they advertise Morgans for like $45 each when silver was $12-13/oz. Most likely you'd get mostly well worn ones and one BU 1921 just to make you feel like you got a good deal if you bought multiple Morgans.

I can't wait until the buys from Jimmy Gerstel dba Treasure Hunters shows a substantial profit. Should be any day now.
