Just a minor correction here, it's Pre 1965 dimes and quarters, not just pre64. That also applies to Pre 1965 half-dollars. And also Pre 1971 silver-dollars. All of the above are 90% silver. Finally, half-dollars 1965-1970 are 40% silver, not nearly as good, but not bad.Quote from minitimer:
...if push comes to shove ill be purchasing gas, food, etc with pre64 dimes and quarters.

I can't help but wonder, if it ever got to the point where you had to do that, what grocery store would still be doing business? Wouldn't the looters, or worse - the invading armies - have cleaned them out by then?![]()

No one cares about silver. Just tagging along with gold..

Bump. I'd say quite the opposite now. Silver is leading gold.
Interesting if you look at the ET threads on metals, there are a bunch around the first time they announced QE, and now there is talk of gold.
But silver is the real performer... And no talk of it. For some reason, I think we're in the third inning of the precious metals move. I think it may be in the making of a perfect bubble (in real terms, relative to other assets) --- every fundamental reason to own it is there.
