    Regarding the Minting of New Silver Coins/Rounds

    Let me clarify a few things... I am not talking about making a bunch of new numi coins... and this is why goldpelican's project provoked this discussion... GP is breaking the envelope from different direction... to denominate with XAG... using an internationally recognized currency code(I did...

    Everyday Carry Coin... Looking For Suggestions.

    :lol: Some clarification is needed... I carry the things I like to fiddle with in my pocket, but I do not fiddle with them in my pocket!

    Regarding the Minting of New Silver Coins/Rounds

    This post is response to the new Silver Stackers XAG Shillings. I was going to post this as reply in that thread then thought it unfair to those involved in the project. This is in no way a judgement against goldpelican and his hard work and effort but rather just my thoughts provoked by the...

    I would love to join an expedition like this... and I am not even greedy... cover my costs of the trip and I will dig, cook, whatever just for fun... any donations would be an unexpected bonus.

    Everyday Carry Coin... Looking For Suggestions.

    Of course, being properly insured is wise. But I know plenty of people that would be scared half to death to walk down the street with a $1000 in their pocket, but have no concerns about carrying an iPhone 5 with a $600 pair of Beats headphones over their ears... some much for situational...

    Everyday Carry Coin... Looking For Suggestions.

    Round 50's would worry me... I am sure I would end up spending them! No concerns about carrying .999... I won't wear a SilverStackers T-shirt... but everyday I own, use, and carry things that are worth a nice sized stack... a Leica M9 with a decent lens will set you back $15,000AUD... carry two...

    Thanks for the quick replies... can photos or links be posted to the less common coins so I can have a look? Definitely thinking of a hand-pour... and holey-dollar sounds like something fun to fiddle with... Thanks!

    Everyday Carry Coin... Looking For Suggestions.

    Good day. Seeing this coin has motivated me to find an everyday carry coin... I have always carried something to fiddle with in my pocket... kinda like worry beads, I suppose... used to carry a my grandad's pen knife with a piece of cedar which I would whittle into something... a pair of...

    What's wrong with Buffalos?

    I am quite partial to buffalo coins, but I must agree that I do not like most of the buffalo coins on the market as they are ugly and poor copies or representations of the real thing. The US Mint Gold buffalo is a stunning coin as well as the original buffalo nickels. If I could find buffalo...

    Totally Toned Silver

    This is a stunning coin... the patina and toning adds depth and character to the engraving... the nicest buffalo I have ever seen. If you ever want to sell it, please let me know... I would carry this coin with me everyday... just a small reminder of my heritage. Thanks for sharing.

    ZH: One Very Strange Use For Silver Coins

    I think the real crux of the issue is the laws of the locality of the transaction take place. For many years when I lived in the state of Pennsylvania, it was common practice and perfectly legal to sell a used car for a $1 to avoid paying 6% sales tax on the transaction, especially older cars...

    Jester, If you offered the Kook's at spot plus $2 I would still be in hurry to get the cash in your hand before you changed your mind... Buffalo's at spot plus $1... only after I bought all your Kook's... the Buffalo's on their own... I would be lukewarm at spot plus $1... because I can get...

    Analysts pick Romny in presidential debate

    And so it should be... the USA is destined to become a military state... by name or nature... sooner or later... only a matter of time... and don't forget that 50 military states are the United States of America.

    Australian wallets stuffed with cash

    The epidemic of $50 notes is easy to explain... I work a organic vegetable stand for a friend... 9 out of 10 customers will hand me a $50 note to pay for their produce because... $50 will actually buy them a decent amount of veggies for the week with change for a coffee and croissant... and the...
