A bubble
 .Whenever you hear folks say how X will go to the moon, you can bet your pants that X is in a bubble. Happens every time. Glad I sold all my sliver back at $43.50, watch it crash and burn....

If it climbs high again I plan on selling off and waiting for a dip. |

i won't buy silver to "invest"
I'm going to buy it because the dollar is shit and I want a method to pay for shit when people don't take dollars anymore. Oh, and also will buy it because I can't afford gold. |

It should be in the low $20's
lol @ calling it a sale at $40, even $30 was a blur. There's no damn support up here in these high prices where silver is now. Anything can shake it down to the $20's. Take it for what you will. |

Quoted: Quoted: Comex changed the rules in the middle of the game... thats what happened. Dont freak out, because it will recover... and then some. what was the change? The change was people selling off paper shares. Bullion is still in very high demand, the price will easily recover. Go look at how "easy" it is to find American Eagles to buy for a decent price (based on current spot) right now. Kitco doesn't even have any for sale... they're fresh out. Apmex is only selling premium coins or coins for "later delivery" when they come in from the mint. (And even those are limited supply) The ones you can find for immediate sale have a huge mark-up right now, good luck finding them under $47 (a full $5 above spot).  So if there is a bubble, which I'm not convinced of, it has not popped, this is a mild setback... |

I collect Morgan silver dollars. i have since 1995. I keep an eye out for them cheap. I figure in a pinch one there silver and 2 they are a coin any one recognizes as currency.
If the day ever comes i can trade and barter accordingly. If things get real bad I have my stash of coffe(vacuum packed), whiskey, a case each of Jack Daniels, Canadian mist and Crown royal. This doesnt count my MRE's and ammo. Cash is also a good idea at least initially. |

It's called profit taking. It's a commodity and is traded as such. It sucked in a lot of money from the little mice. Remember what it was like in Kindergarten when you played the game with music and chairs? When the music stopped there was always one less chair than there were people. Steal your little piece of cheese from the big rats and be happy. Get greedy and you'll be the last person standing without a chair when the music stops.

I have a fair amount of silver dimes, quarters and halfs. I have had them for a while- dad actually started collecting them in about '63 or '64 when we heard they were going to stop making coins from silver.
I have been watching the melt values, and they have fell almost $9 an ounce from last week. Are these coins worth keeping or should I find a buyer? These are not the same as people who are buying bullion- right? Jim |

They raised the margins (think of it as basically a buy-in limit) for the big players to slow the climb.
I predict silver will be at $60.00 + sometime around June. Why? Because the supply of silver is far less than the supply of the dollar. Quoted:

If you would ever want trade-able silver in a SHTF scenario, silver dimes will be king. |

If you believe that you are not a pm buyer, a lot of dealers say they are out on a dip but 99% time pull them off hoping the price goes up. there is not a shortage of silver all demand has been meet and will be for many years to come |

Yeah, in theory, but like an Arfcommer said- if I show up with silver dimes trying to buy food it probably ain't gonna work. I doubt we will ever be in a full on SHTF situation- sorry Arfcom. I wonder what real, practical value these coins will be? Jim |

They are just '64 pocket change that are silver. I also have some coins that are old. Really old. Those I will not be selling. Silver quarters from 1925 and earlier are just too neat to sell. So is my 1888 Morgan silver dollar that is in almost uncirculated condition. I also have some pennies from the late 1800s and early 1900s that I need to get appraised, but I am not looking to sell them. My brother and I do share an old $5 gold coin. As high as gold is that one is hard to hold onto. Jim |

Just another bubble. Sold my gold at 900 bought at 300 in 98 will get back in at 400, silver I'll get back in at 25 I think. Look back at the gold prices in the 80's for a history lesson.
