Just chceked out these people's web site and they are THIEVES. 34 dollars for one ounce of silver is suckering folks. Criminy.

It isn't even an ounce of silver... It is only PLATED.

An ounce of silver would plate two thousand + of the coins they are selling.

And of course that limit of five per customer is nonsense. A couple of weeks ago, just for grins, I went to their website and ordered 30,000 of them, and their shopping cart accepted the order.

(Of course, I DIDN'T enter my credit card information and complete the order.)

All these privately minted 'collectors coins' are scams, even the ones that actually use solid silver or gold... The price is such that the buyers will never break even on them unless unless they can find someone even dumber than they were.

And it also really Irks me when they pretend or imply that they are an official govenment mint as many of them do.

Buy them if you if you like the artwork (which IS sometimes fairly nice, although these particular ones are really crappy from an artistic standpoint) or if they make you feel better about yourself, but don't delude yourself that you are buying any thing actually of value.
