A freind of mine tooks some scrap gold and silver rings to a dealer a week ago. These were peices he found last year metal detecting. He turns the scrap into cash and then buys old US coins with it.

While there, an older gentleman came in and bought $15,000.00 in silver bullion. My buddy was kind of laughing thinking about this guy carrying all those 1 oz. coins out. He got it in 1 lb bar and there was still over 50 of them. he aksed the guy why bit just buy stock if you are buying that much. The gentlemen smiled at him and said, its liquid and in my hands.
