    ANACS Grading - Comparable with other graders?

    PCGS, NGC and ANACS are the top three grading companies. IMO, ANACS is a distant third place in that group. Nuf said.

    Ron Paul: Legalize and Untax Gold and Silver!

    Should we assume that Rand Paul's endorsement of Romney was some sort of Jedi Mind Trick? Bookmarked for future laughter on August 28th.

    You are clinging to a delusion.

    Actually it never got interesting. Rand Paul endorsed Romney. Ron Paul will soon be retiring to Texas.

    Engelhard query

    Engelhard Australia bullion is very popular with collectors but very difficult to find in North America. The 5 oz that sold for $386 on Ebay was one such bar.

    Engelhard query

    Engelhard bars are no longer produced. That helps with popularity. They were also produced over many years in many styles. Most types have unique serial numbers. That helps with collectability. Odd sized older poured bars are quite scarce and are attracing more specialist collectors. Think...

    Do those in debt find it hard to stack?

    Your ability to add gold and silver depends less upon debt and more upon net worth and cash flow. Having no debt means little if your cash flow just barely covers expenses. I have a home mortgage and car payment but still have plenty to purchase metals. With sufficient cash flow you can add...

    I could not be more right when you consider where this thread has been relegated. :P

    Ron Paul: Legalize and Untax Gold and Silver!

    The silver forum is for discussing silver and not for promoting political candidates.

    Ron Paul: Legalize and Untax Gold and Silver!

    More Ron Paul spam. Whatever he is proposing hardly matters since he is not going to be President in the US. In 2013 he won't even be a Congressman.

    Good sized stack?

    At that rate of exchange I think I'll use my stack to buy Haiti. ;) 5,000 ounces is my idea of the type of stack to assemble before retirement.

    Engelhard 10oz (Loaf) $$???

    Lucky, the Engelhard you posted is a later poured version. They are common and I would only pay $2-3 (US) over spot. To me they are little more than bullion. Earlier poured bars can take on numismatic premiums - provided you can find any. Here is a quick Engelhard primer. 3 oz and 5 oz...

    Silver Certificates - When the dollar note was silver backed

    Hard times bring long horded coins back into circulation.....but just for a short time. People don't know what they're spending.

    Silver Certificates - When the dollar note was silver backed

    I recall the newspaper stories about the long lines of people converting silver certificates into silver coins in the US during June 1968. During 1068 you could still find a fair amount of silver in circulation just by obtaining rolls of dimes, quarters and halves at banks. It just took a bit...

    Historical purchasing power of a Sovereign

    I wish I had 500 oz squirreled away right now. :( Some who start stacking in the 1990's just might but are not likely to talk about it. My goal is to be able to sell one ounce of gold and 20 ounces of silver per month over an assumed 20 years of retirement. That plus pension and other...

    Things to know when stacking Sovereigns

    I recommend finding a Victorian era sovereign tester. Mine is in my pocket whenever I visit a coin show in search of sovereigns. You can check the weight of both full and half sovereigns and determine if the thickness is correct. In my experience the only genuine soverigns that do not fit...
