Re: A new, thought-provoking ethics question...
Based on the way the question is presented I don't see this as a question of ethics...it's a simple buy/sell transaction. The seller sold junk silver, the buyer bought junk silver...both unknowing of the actual contents, both entering into a transaction willingly, both receiving what they consider to be fair value at the… -

In its earliest die state, however, long before the cud developed, it exhibited a prominent 'die bulge' throughout the horizontal lines (azures) of the reverse shield. This…
