Gloom & Doom SHTF Question - as it relates to Gold & Silver & The US Dollar
In such a situation,,, which I firmly believe is coming,,, the dollar falls and eventually becomes worthless. Gold & Silver skyrockets. My question is what happens to the debt you have on paper committed to in Dollars. Say mostly the mortage balance due on your home? If you owe $50,000 I am assuming it stays at $50,000 as… -
A 2017 A Five Dollar US note looks like,..? Let me try to explain how this could happen, anywhere ?
Anywhere, could be one big factor as the damage makes the note look distorted. Anywhere, could also be a false positive of the dia markers. Been there done that comes to mind, except not with currency. I'm going to post 2, 8.5 x 11 in. photos of the obverse side. Any humor type responses should cover the fact that your… -
Re: How would you rank my haul yesterday?
I hear what you are saying. There is a fine line between coming down on a new collector like a ton of bricks and discouraging them, causing them to leave the hobby, and giving them constructive advice to avoid the potholes and falls equal to the Grand Canyon. An example of the Grand Canyon is the “1913 Liberty Nickel” that… -
Re: NHL 2024-25 Playoffs your team (s)?
I assume you mean a trade or something. No way they'll take him to arb and then walk away from his contract for nothing. But seeing as he was bumped down to the 4th line and had his ice time cut late in that series I could see them not extending him or essentially doing a sign and trade of some sort. He did fall off in the… -
Re: July gold and silver trading thread
Thanks for the link. The charts (in multiple time frames) are LOADED with energy from this extended consolidation. While it could go either direction, there's a lot more compelling argument for upside than downside. Additionally, the max downside (as I see it) of approx $880 is smaller in comparison to the upside, which I… -
** Fun Way To Show Collection
I have been taking more photos of my collection and I thought it would be fun to show pictures with a brief synopsis of each year. Similar to what you would find in an almanac. I collect primarily 30 key cards in baseball from 1956 to 1985. 1956 – Americans continue their love affair with “Ike” as Dwight Eisenhower cruises… -
Interesting auction observation
I was watching and recording the Heritage auction of the fabulous Whispering Pines collection today. The auctioneer said a couple very interesting things. One was, in regards to a scarce item of which there are several in the same grade, the auctioneer said the collector (Whispering Pines) looked at and evaluated all the… -
Need Help with a $10 Type Set
I just finished disposing of my late father's estate, so I decided to talk with my adult daughter about some of the valuable things that I own and where she might be able to sell them for a good price when I'm gone. I showed her some National Banknotes that I own, and she thought that it was wild that a person might be… -
Re: Big hit on silver
$3 is significant but in my opinion not a big deal. For a lot of people, the $50 mark was a psychological sell point. They also realized that a lot of other people might think the same way so some started selling at the 47-49 range. More sell orders than buy orders will cause the price to drop but I would not view a $3… -
Re: These coins failed CAC—why?
"I'm half-joking, but it's a valid observation that no one, even the most experienced dealers and collectors here seem to be able to predict with any high degree of accuracy (80-90%) whether coins will CAC or not. How is it possible that no one else in the industry has "the eye" to reliably identify "A" and "B" coins?" I'm…
