Re: I remember what happened back in 1979 or 80 when silver soared when the Hunt brothers tried to corner the market. As do I! I used to go to the bank and get rolls and rolls of coins, pull out the silver ones, rewrap them and go back and repeat the process. I did that for a couple of years and had a nice stash of silver coins. I was standing in line in a coin shop, ready to sell my silver coins when silver hit its peak price. Unfortunately I was second in line when it peaked. I got to sell on the first price drop so I still got excellent prices for my silver. I still have silver coins but mostly for their numismatic value. I'll be passing these on via my will.
