Hey guys! Got my hands on a kick-ass new silver coin that just came out this week exclusively from APMEX.com: The 2015 3/4 oz Silver Canadian Grey Wolf coin – it’s pretty slick. And just like we did last time when they released the silver Australian Great White ... [Full Post]

Say hello to my new little friend! A 1 and 1/2 Pence piece from Great Britain, circa 1836! And, quite frankly, the tiniest coin I’ve ever seen before… Look how cute she is! (Yes, she’s a “she” :)) I picked it up for $27 worth of trade (it’s ... [Full Post]
