    A good ratio is 25% silver, 50% gold, 25% platinum.

    The US Mint stopped production on all regular circulating 90% silver coins 50 years ago this year. They are a very popular form of silver coin collecting and investing. Rarely, some 90% silver coins are still found from time to time at the bank (a financial establishment in an actual building where we store and transfer physical and electronic money), at a convenience store (a business where you can get fuel, food, snacks, lottery tickets, and really sugary drinks), and in grandma's closet in a small purple Crown Royal bag.

    Cents (or "pennies" as so many non-numismatic people call them) still circulate, even the ones pre-1984 that are 95% copper, which by the time you read this everyone will have melted the Cents down and turned it into weights to distribute to different parts of the earth to keep the gyroscopic movement in line due to the sun's decaying gravitational pull. P.S. There is 1 1977 cent that was buried under my house as a good luck piece just in case you need an extra 3.11 grams of weight distributed somewhere.

    Too many positive BST transactions with too many members to list.

    ....Crown Royal was an adult beverage that was made in Canada. Grandma had a lot of old coins so she made sure to have enough of the bags available. Grandpa Gus made his contribution as well.

    The earliest United States silver coins were produced in Philadelphia in 1794. A coin called the Disme and Half Disme were minted in 1792. Not only are current numismatists unable to decide if the Dismes were the first federal issue, they cannot agree on the pronunciation.

    One notable 1794 coin is believed by many to be the first U.S. Silver Dollar produced. A couple of years ago a renowned collector and all around nice guy bought it for $10,000,000. Though that only buys a rusted 2102 Chevy as you are reading this, it was a whole lot of money in 2014!!!

    And the 2114 Lincoln cent in your pocket is a 205 year old series!
