They have already done that with some of the notes. The 5, 10 and 20 are polymer now with only the 50 left to go.

Your regular currency should change gradually. Back in the UK we still had George VI on coins until they finally resized the 5 and 10 pence pieces in the 1990s. This was even after decimalisation when the two shilling coin was still around as 10 pence and the one shilling coin was used as 5...

I am in the USA and the $10 shipping is about right. APMEX shipping is $9.99 and JM Bullion is $7.99. I have never used SD Bullion but they are respected in the industry and a good choice to use. Do not get too hung up with the "spot price" offers because you will find that the spot price goes...

Milk spots on Canadian silver seem to be caused by Silver Chloride due to the die washing process using Hydrochloric acid and not being rinsed properly. Did you use anything with chlorine to wash the crucibles? Ammonia or hydrochloric acid maybe?

It might be a legal thing, if you say 9ct you had better be 9ct or better but not worse.

One day at school we were discussing Pavlov and how stupid his dogs were, then the lunchtime bell rang.

It was the shape shifting lizards from the hollowed out moon. They needed to reset twitter because it was starting to manifest the reality beamed from the centre of our galaxy instead of the one beamed from Saturn and focused onto Earth by their spaceship moon. That happens sometimes when the...

Me too. They are 75% copper and 25% nickel. I figure that if nothing else I can annoy some bank clerk after I retire.

Several online dealers/storage facilities have gone bankrupt over the past few years and people got back approximately 2% of what they had stored with them. Just as long as the company you use to store your gold/account does not go bankrupt you should be fine.

Yep it will be Chuck but rumour has it that he is going to take the name George for his "ruler name" as he has said that people look favourably on the Georges. That would make him George the One Too Many. They may or may not have him face the other way as both Edward VIII and George VI both...

Pure silver will tarnish black due to the sulphur in the atmosphere. Copper has a slightly higher affinity to sulphur than silver so throw a copper round in the box where you keep the silver to help stop the tarnishing.

First of all, consult a tax professional for the final answer. Do you know if you had a Roth or Regular IRA? If it is a Roth then you have already paid taxes on it and so the distributions are tax free. Also, it may not be classed as a distribution until you cash it out. Once again, if it was a...

You mean put Charles on it? :-)

Be careful adding other chemicals, you may end up with Silver compounds of all different types. Your best bet is to use distilled water (no other contaminants in it) and just wash it over the coin. You have to do this before the milk spot has formed as Silver Chloride is insoluble in water. The...

The milk spots are Silver Chloride and appear to be caused when the planchet is cleaned with Hydrochloric Acid and not washed properly. Some of the HCl stays on the silver and slowly reacts to form the milky white AgCl. It is a very slow process and, as you said, only takes place on the surface...
