I just noticed that the silver [1] to gold [2] price ratio has bounced back up to 52-to-1. (It is wise to study these charts [3].) In my estimation, we have reached another good opportunity to ratio trade out of gold coins and into silver coins, especially for anyone that is over-invested in gold. Be sure to sell gold on a peak day, and buy silver on a dip day. Before this decade is out, I predict the Ag/Au ratio will be under 30-to-1. And by the time we pass our coins on to our great-grandchildren, the ratio may be as low as 15-to-1.) Trust me, they won’t sneer at silver.
