It is notable that spot gold is now at around $1,187 per Troy ounce, while platinum is down around $978. This nearly $200 price disparity means that you can buy slabbed (PCGS graded) platinum U.S. Mint Liberty bullion coins for less than equivalent weight gold U.S. Mint Liberty bullion coins that are loose (ungraded). In my estimation, that makes platinum a screaming “Buy!”, especially with President Trump’s tax cuts just around the corner. (Those cuts should encourage an economic revival, which will likely mean a return to the historic norm of platinum selling for more than gold.) – JWR o …

Yes, this is true. However, while I have not searched a lot of boxes of halves, pretty much I have found at least one or two per box searched with the most being 12. Yes, getting them back to a bank can be a pain, but they can be spent or brought to a counter. It’s kind of fun to search and find the silver at face value. ?- DSV

James and Hugh, I stopped searching about eight years ago; I found that I used 1000 bucks eleven times. I found zero silver coins. (I’m not saying it’s all gone, just that I had bad luck.) My luck was bad enough that I decided that the only thing I was finding was a lower gas gauge on my little car while driving from my pickup bank to my dump bank. I did manage to get part of a walking liberty half book filled the year before. I’m just saying that the guys doing coin roll hunting for halves have a …

Welcome to SurvivalBlog’s Precious Metals Month in Review, where we take a look at “the month that was” in precious metals. Each month, we cover the price action of gold and examine the “what” and “why” behind those numbers. What Did Gold Do in December? Gold started December at $1,177 an ounce, a 10-month low.
