David A Kincade,
My little shopping trip was very interesting. I have a few local dealers to check still, but evidently there ain't a lot of metal out there local, though the big mail order houses seem to have it of course. When I am done, I will report on the bullion coin buying prospects for an area of a few counties containing over a half million people.
Anybody with any advice feel free, I am a long out of practice at this, haven't done any buying (or selling) of coin since the mid 70's.
Picked up some silver Eagles for $8, that's almost two bucks under what mail order is at the moment. Been wanting to do this for awhile, a long while. Ever since I helped a friend load his pickup with silver coin in 1986, I couldn't help but think he wasn't wrong, just way (WAY!) early.
Now, just a feeling that it is time, but oh what a feeling, ggg.
