I have a friend that owns a convient store. He had a customer buy 20 dollars of gas with silver dollars.

Probably stolen fom his granny.

A quick run up in gold is not a very good sign.

Neither is printing 2 trillion dollars per year, but that’s what leads to a run up in gold.

most coin/metals dealers won’t offer max value on these types of items, they generally send them out to a smelter for purification. You can try to deal directly with a smelter, most have minimum requirements though. I’ve only dealt with Silver in this way, so I’m not certain how they handle the parameters around gold items. Good fortunes

Estimate 0.77 Troy oz./coin, silver spot price at $48.82, makes each coins silver value about $37.55. I think I'd have swaped a couple of saw bucks and those coins would go home with me.

They don’t like to admit that they missed the greatest wealth building opportunity of their lifetime. So instead of learning about it, they continue to call it fake. I see the threads on here year after year as the price continues to go up and up and up. Oh well, their loss!

Couldn't tell you anything about selling gold bullion, don't own any. I have some numismatic gold coins that I have owned for years, own some gold mining stocks and a couple of gold ETFs. They have all performed decently over the past 15-20 years as an inflation hedge.

Bitcoin is far from fake …. but neither is it free from risk. Like any other asset it has its pluses and minuses …. and that is something every investor should learn.

My concern with crypto is eventually some bad actors are going to figure out and effective virus/cyber attack targeting Bitcoin and other blockchain code....

Hundred dollar bills aren't worth their weight in gold.

40 hundred dollar bills weigh 40 grams = $4,000

40 grams of gold is worth $5,156.00
