  1. Good for gold too:

     

    Likewise for kitco chart. Automatically refreshes:

     

    <html>

    <head>

    <img alt="" id="gold" name="gold" src="http://www.kitco.com/images/live/gold.gif">

    <img alt="" id="silver" name="silver" src="http://www.kitco.com/images/live/silver.gif">

    <script type="text/javascript">

     

    var gold = document.getElementById('gold').src

    var silver = document.getElementById('silver').src

     

    function refresh()

    {

    var now = new Date();

    document.getElementById('gold').src = gold+'?'+now.getTime();

    document.getElementById('silver').src = silver+'?'+now.getTime();

     

    setTimeout("refresh()",10000);

    }

     

    refresh();

     

    </script>

  2. I am starting to question some of the opinions of Sinclair of late. He is showing a complete ignorance of metallurgy when he talks about 'mixing lead and tungsten'. Simple thermal or electrical tests are sufficient for testing - no need for drilling or radiation. He says 'we know coins have been adulterated for years' - really? I have never seen an adulterated coin - and a dealer I know has not either. Why is Sinclair deliberately trying to instill doubt into people's minds with this misinformation?

     

    Perhaps he is behind 'well established coin dealers' and wants you to buy from him!

     

    Edit: Silver has a density of 10.5 and lead is 11.35 so I would like to see how the density of silver can be matched by a 'mixture of lead and tungsten' when tungsten has a density of 19.25!!

     

    :blink: Perhaps they really did manage to turn lead into gold :lol:

  3. Spotted this; thought it sounded fascinating..

    Bacterium Transforms Toxic Gold Compounds To Their Metallic Form

     

    ScienceDaily (Oct. 9, 2009) — Australian scientists have found that the bacterium Cupriavidus metallidurans catalyses the biomineralisation of gold by transforming toxic gold compounds to their metallic form using active cellular mechanism.

     

    “The discovery of an Au-specific operon means that we can now start to develop gold-specific biosensors, which will help mineral explorers to find new gold deposits."

  4. I ordered the day the Britannia's arrived at CID. Mine didn't come with any cardboard. Maybe CID has learnt from the experience of the early customers and is taking more care with the packaging.

     

    Around 5% of my coins came of out the plastic while I was taking them out of the box and counting them. These were all at the edge of the ‘pages.

     

    The coins go back in to the plastic but they don't seal properly. At least one layer of plastic fell off and couldn't be put back on. I think there was 3 or 4 layers total.

     

    I was very very careful with them after that.

     

    Uhh I am not sure I really understand. I also have a lot of gold brittanias from CID which came in "sealed" plastic squares, which all fell out. Others just came loose. I just threw them all in the box with my sovs. Are you saying the plastic square is important? Do some coins need more care than others? I'm sure it doesnt matter.

  5. And while i am biting... you think Gold is going to 500USD and the gold silver ratio will widen to 100+

    You do realise this means sub 5USD per oz silver :blink:

    It costs most producers more than that just to get the stuff out the ground

    Mines would close at that level and above ground stocks such as they are would disappear very quickly.

    In short sub 5USD silver aint gonna happen.

     

    If you recall, this is the same guy who predicted a great fall in silver to $6.60 at a very exact time.

     

    As soon as that time came, by some fluke, the kitco graph messed up and went exactly to the price predicted.

     

    I wait with much anticipation to the next great kitco prediction :) It was a GEI legendary moment.

     

    Anyhow, this article over on market oracle discusses the same chart pattern prediction

     

    http://www.marketoracle.co.uk/Article13102.html

     

    "If the projected final [C] legs down in gold, silver, and the HUI are as severe as the charts may be telling us, the opportunity to buy low priced gold, silver, and precious metal shares will be extraordinary. This [C] leg down that I am describing will not be the beginning of a prolonged correction; it will be the end of a prolonged correction that began in March 2008."

  6. The idiots are back in town. This dance around the round number is so ridiculous. :lol:

     

    If the price goes down substantially, I'll possibly add to my position some more gold rather than silver or palladium. You have to love the blackboxes, sheeple sellers, and the Cartel. :)

     

    EDIT: Anyone who tries to trade this should read up on nickels and steamrollers.

     

    That's good. I want to get some of those 2009 brits, but at £765 each, I will have to wait until payday :rolleyes:

     

    Anyway speaking of tunes, here's a happy one to fit this whole silly charade.

    edit: how do you embed youtube vids?

    Edit: cool, thanks steve

  7. There would not be a confiscation. In the worst case, there would be a forced sale to government at current prices, in which case you would buy a tangible asset (like a house, silver or oil) if inflation was not under control by the time.

     

    I do not think it will happen. I think one day a little bit of these trillions will be used by the central banks to buy gold. The price will double, and then double again, and they have reached two goals: their gold assets are revalued at realistic levels so that they are not bankrupt anymore, and they have more of those assets because of their purchase.

     

    Yes, I agree. There might be forced sale if there was return to gold standard and the government wanted to gold and everyone was stashing it. But would you be interested in holding gold if we were back on gold standard?

  8. Can anyone recommend any nice coin cases? The packaging they arrive in are quite feeble a lot of the time.

     

    I also have some new coins that are sealed in a plastic case. Are these worth more if I keep them in this case, so I don't get my grubby paw prints all over them? They don't strike me to be a great case over time.
