I can’t see how that has happened. How would the gov’t know that the gold or silver was in the safe box, especially if you don’t tell them? I would think that in hard economic times, the gov’t would be more communist then they already are.

Well, it has been noticed. Take a look here for instance: http://www.reuters.com/article/bankingfinancial-SP/idUSN1225115120070612

Silver can still legally be in circulation, but it’s very rare as most has been sucked up by collectors. Your silver-clads may not be worth that much since they are only 40% silver, not the 90% that was used through 1964.Sorry Brian, but you are wrong. Kennedy half-dollars were silver-clad (40%) from 1965-1971. Some of those were proof sets only though.

for a big investment like that, nena would definitely use a financial advisor or a stock broker.

Silver dimes and quarters are getting harder to find in rolls due to both denominations circulate. That means they get out into the public and a lot of people who are not really collectors take them for the silver content. It seems that 1/2 dollar rolls are a better bet for 40% silver 1/2’s 1965-1970 as well as some 90% halves 1964 and before. 1/2 dollar rolls are usually too expensive for the younger collectors. Unless one really knows there coins, ebay is a place to stay away from for a lot of reasons. Roosevelt dimes are still not very expensive and it would not hurt to put a nice set of the silver ones together, but you will have to get them from a coin dealer. Also put a clad set together for some of them are getting scarce that can be done from change or rolls from the bank. Try to find dimes with nice strikes especially the torch on the reverse. Above all have fun.

First of all lat me thank you for such a wonderful question, you are correct every investment benefits the humanity. But help me in looking at money this way.Money has always been a problem if you have it or if you do not have it. So managing money is some thing very different than earning it. Basically all our money related decisions are governed by our FEAR and GREED. How much of the two we have and manage and how much of the two is managed by advisors around us. Now to the very nature of your personality will decide more than any thing else where your money will end up. Still the bottom line is it’s neither your money nor my money we are just a short stop for the money it will continue its journey…JOIN MY GROUP FOR LATEST UPDATEShttp://in.groups.yahoo.com/group/minabazar/join

Gold and silver have had an amazing few years. In hindsight, there are very few people who were better off by investing in anything other than gold or silver in recent years… however looking into the future we have no hindsight. Typical returns on gold are VERY low compared to most other investments. Money in the bank is making between 0.5% and 5% (depending on the bank and the savings vehicle you use). Inflation tends to run around 3% and in 2007 was 4%. So money in the bank is approximately keeping up with inflation, so it is neither gaining nor losing value. If you have a significant amount in the bank, be sure you are earning 4%+ interest. That rate is easy to find with online banks if no local banks offer it.Depending on what this investment is for, there are many options that are likely better than gold/silver. For most people, their largest investment account is for retirement. There are great tax advantaged accounts for this: 401k, ROTH IRA. If your company offers a 401k, check it out and invest risky (stock funds) if you are young; or less risky (balanced funds/bonds) if you are older. Stock funds have averaged 10%-11% for many decades. Bond funds tend to run around 5%-7%. Being very expensive right now, gold could potentially lose alot of value soon… although no one knows the future. If you’re interested in a ROTH IRA (no immediate tax advantage, but when you take the money out it is completely tax free), check out Vanguard:https://personal.vanguard.com/us/accounttypes/retirement?Entry=Homeoffer02Read all you can about the ROTH IRA and other options. Knowledge is certainly power (and money) in this case.Vanguard has the lowest fees and is often rated as the best mutual fund company. Their “Target Retirement” accounts are great for those who want to stash their money away and never worry about it. These accounts start out riskier when you’re young and slowly become safer as you approach retirement age. Find the fund with a date near your retirement date (ie ‘Target Retirement 2040′) and open a ROTH IRA with that fund.Best of luck in your investing future!

There are 31.1 grams in a troy ounce, so your bar weighs 3.21 Troy ounces. With silver at $16.14 per ounce, that is $51.80. You would get 90-95% of that if you sold it at a coin shop.

The easy if expensive methods involve purchase of electric powered metal detecting equiment and excavation tools.The harder if inexpensive methods involve excavation tools,selecting a likely dig location, and set-up arrangements. Mylast dig was outside back door of former railroad locomotiverepair facility having 72 years of operation. Found many oldparts, tools, one .32 pistol, and a gold union lapel pin. Built a 2×4x36 inch wood frame, nailed strap metal to secure metal screen having quarter inch square gaps between wires. To sift soil when shovel entered content my hand shook screen back and forth. Had to dump a lot of stones and junk metal. Usually made two piles. When hole was done all extracted material was shoveled back in, soil first,followed by stone.Worked under wood tripod lashed at top using nylon rope. Four more ropes of equal lengths with one end each fixed atop tripod fitted onto shaker framework using holes I had drilled for that purpose one at each wood corner and knotted below. This saved me frequent lifting of heavy sift materials. When sifted earth pile grew too high I simply moved my tripod hung working equipment. When done for the day I left the tripod laid asite the dig and transported everything else by bicycle. Would expect to find coins where swept accidently out of buildings or where people loiter waiting for services with money in-hand (like bus stops?).

No such bank in london. The following are probably the main banks:-Barclays, HSBC, LloydsTSB or the Royal Bank of Scotland

Oh gosh..I think that the answer’s A. Jackson hated the bank because the national government minted gold and silver coins but didn’t issue paper money. The bank was also a private institution that was accountable to its elite circle of moneyed investors.

Those silver certificates were not redeemable in silver. The Treasury reneged on converting paper for gold or silver on 8/15/1971. Paper is redeemable in paper only. Paper is worthless. For each $20 silver note you could only trade it for 1 $20 Federal Reserve Note. This is exactly why Ron Paul has introduced a bill in Congress to have competing currencies as we used to and to legalize in statute law the Constitution and allow gold and silver to be used as money. If you want real money then you must acquire it on your own and buy physical metals and store them yourself. This is exactly what I do. Had those certificates been converted 40 years ago then they would be worth alot today in physical metal. This is the reason why 3 US dimes in 1964 would buy you 1.25 gal of gas. Today those same 3 silver US 1964 dime will buy you the same 1.25 gal of gas. It only takes more paper to buy the gas. The dimes didn’t go up in value the paper went down in value requiring more of it to buy the same goods and services.Additional Response. Do you understand that you were not ripped off in any way. The notes you deposited were worth no more then the face value. They were not silver, could not be converted into silver at that time and cant be converted into silver today and therefore not worth any more then the $20 printed upon them. The bank did nothing wrong. FDIC insurance only covers your deposit in Federal Reserve Notes if the bank is taken over by the FDIC. The bank has to be declared insolvent in order for FDIC to kick in. The bank did nothing wrong and the deposit was not worth 1 penny more then face value. It was never worth any more then face value. Clearly you are not much wiser due to hindsight. Otherwise you would not be assuming that they were worth any more then face value. I suggest you read history, mainly Ron Paul’s book The Case For Gold. The book is from his first term in Congress. It was the congressional report he wrote while he sat on the Gold Commission. In it he explains all about the different bank notes and the history behind it. Your addition details response shows just how ignorant and uneducated you really are. Just because you dont like an answer given doent mean you have the right to attack those that attempted to give you a response. Grow up!!!

A $100 worth of grocieries in 2009 would have cost $7.86 in 1930.http://www.westegg.com/inflation/infl.cgi

Long John Silver is not a cheap franchise. Total requirement is $1.1M-1.7M and Franchise fee is $30K. To qualify, you need:- Net worth requirement: $1M- Cash liquidity requirement: $360KYou also have an ongoing royalty fee of 5% that you need to pay to the franchisor. While the company may provide training and some marketing support, you will have to spend a lot for the business – it’s not something that you pay once and that’s it.As for raising money, applying for a business loan and walking out with the money is not that easy. Banks want to lend money, and they must lent money in order to stay in business, but most banks are notoriously conservative and extremely reluctant to lend you money unless you have a “regular income” that guarantees repayment. If and when you approach a bank for a business loan, you’ll need all your papers in order – your financial statement, your business plan, credit history and all the endorsements you can get relative to your succeeding with your planned enterprise.

Of course you can; but why would you want to. Depending on the year and the condition of the coins they may be worth more than a dollar to a collector.INTERESTING FACT: The United States is the ONLY nation on earth NEVER to have recalled or repudiated ANY of its currrency. This means that all American money, no matter when it was made is still legal tender. To prove this point, ten years ago, a man went to a store to purchase some groceries and payed for them with a hundred-year old ten dollar gold piece. The store at first balked (why, I can’t imagine, I’d love it if someone gave me a gold piece for a loaf of bread), and the man took them to court. The court issued an order requiring the store to accept the currency, because it’s still valid.So don’t take the coins to a bank, if you want, spend them. They’re good.

You would have to be a fool to give out silver coins at face value. Banks are not in the fool business. However, they take in rolled coins that they do not check and sell those to other customers. And in those rolls you do occasionally find silver coins. I am not going to say they were put there by fools, but by the careless/unknowing. It’s not that hard if you’re in a hurry to ‘lose’ a dime in a pile of pennies while rolling change, and not that hard to not notice it as it easily slides into the roll.I have been going through rolls of pennies – maybe $250 worth in the last year. I have found perhaps fifteen dimes in those rolls. That’s a pretty low percentage, 15 out of 500, or 3% of the rolls with a dime. But three of them have been silver, one a Mercury head.And I decided to go through a few rolls of dimes and nickels, looking for the low mintage 2009s. The nickels were a bust, but in one roll of dimes, I found 5 – 2009, and altogether, 2 silver dimes, including a Mercury head. The five silver dimes, at current value, turns out to have been a $7.50 bonus for my work. Nothing great, but enough to keep it fun.I wouldn’t expect to find too many quarters. I think if I were to drive around town with two grand, buying 10 rolls or $100 worth at twenty banks, I would be lucky to get two or three. That’s $8 – $12 in silver, and not worth the gas.Oh yeah, the pennies. I probably made 50 cents profit on extra pennies, and I got close to a dollar’s worth in wheats out of those 25,000 pennies – about one wheat in every five rolls. But those were a bonus. I was pulling out the copper pre-1982 cents. Ended up with a bit over $100 in copper cents, about 70 pounds, which I can sell to bullion investors for $150. But I think copper is going still higher. It was just under 2 cents of copper in a penny when I started, and it’s up to 2.4 cents each. I don’t care to sort through them to look for any of the more recent penny varieties, but that’s something anyone can easily do. You can probably put together a complete run of cents from both P and D mints from 1959 right through today and get a few of the varieties as well, if you wanted to, just out of rolls from the bank. Even all of the S mint business strikes, the few there were. They wouldn’t all be new and shiny, but you won’t be paying all new and shiny prices, either.
