Perhaps you could invent a gadget to mimic the cleaning action of a pocket on a walking person that cleans coins with a natural patina? I also know from personal experience that inadvertent coins from a washing machine cycle always come out with a healthy sparkle.

Market doom = Silver boom

The continuing saga of PM market manipulation finds more JPM traders with their pants down https://www.streetinsider.com/Reuters/JPMorgan+metals+trader+pleads+guilty+to+spoofing%2C+resigns+from+bank/15838615.html

Ah the great outdoors & maybe some shiny stuff to go with it. I think it's like friends with benefits :)

I used to have a friendly Postal counter lady that would keep an eye out for desirable UNC Rolls and I would reward her with a premium over face value.

The Litecoin & Silver parallels are still happening. Both assets are undervalued and enveloped in an air of investment uncertainty. A total Gold & Silver breakout is a market manipulators worst nightmare. Soon everyone will be rushing to the same gates to escape the market free-fall.

It's funny how the RCM describe their silver purity as .9999 & they're easily the worst coins when it comes to Milk spots. I've got some truly horrible examples.

Thanks, I copied the details of my last purchase and sent them through to RSM. Interestingly, a friend got through to Perth Bullion yesterday by phone & they told him that they're processing undelivered orders & basically not to worry. I told him to worry much & follow the liquidators rec. process.

Oh looks like I've got stung badly here - Any updates?

Hmmm, I just had the opposite experience with UPS. I located some Kooks at a good price in Singapore. The supplier asked me to verify the GST ruling to add to the delivery information for customs which I did. The tracking indicated it was awaiting customs clearance. The following day I received...

Actually I believe crypto will be PM's greatest value ally in the near future. 40% of all Bitcoin in Chinese hands & their insatiable lust for Gold. They'll diversify into hard assets when their BTC portfolios are worth billions.

Hello everyone, it's been a long time since I added to my PM portfolio. So jumped back in today and converted some fiat over to allocated storage via Perth Mint. Have this funny feeling that silver is about to break loose. It's been shackled for so long now. Kinda nice for fellow Ag bugs that...

Absolutely agree, but one can imagine how easy it is to adulterate the process from manufacture, wholesale to reseller. I also have a couple of fake Apmex bars in the mix but can't remember where I got those. I blame the Chinese counterfeiters for all this, the absolute proliferation of fakes...

It was the bargain part of a bigger order & only four bars. I'm not going to worry about it, not worth the hassle for my word against there's.

On special from a local Perth internet dealer about eighteen months ago. I seriously doubt they even knew they were fake bars as they looked so perfect. If you've got any suss bars just gravity slide a neodymium over the surface on an angle & if pure silver it should markedly effect the speed...

I was a bit suspicious of these bars when I was sorting the other day. They failed the diamagnetic test so I acid tested one of them & sure enough they're fakes. Goes to show the cheapest bars even when purchased from reputable sellers can often be plated copies. [/imgz]

Thanks look forward to that

By the time you extricate it which will require heat you'll probably end up with a munted worthless coin. These are a very popular collectible in China. Fat equals lucky even though Yuan Shih Kai wasn't historically well regarded.

Mainly Silver thanks

Thanks PA suggest you check out more than one local dealer in your area and of course there's a large amount of on line reference info. on line.
