Looks like you are in the drivers seat. I thought that most of the votes
were too high. Looks like only one was over! Wish I had a few tons of
the stuff!

Honestly i'm rather shocked on how much silver has gone up in a matter
of one month.... I'm wishing i had invested in a gold coin that went
up over 100 bucks an ounce, but i'll stick with my collection of
silver.

I did a short look at Silver, Gold and Platinum and it looks like platinum would have been the winner.

as of 8:30 MST here are some figures

Close on 2-4-08 8:30 today Change

Silver 16.49 19.71 1.166
Gold 902.70 972.80 1.077
Platinum 1791.00 2172.00 1.212

I wish I could afford platinum 21% per month is a bunch.

CURRENT PRICE AS OF 1 PM MST IS AT 18.91 ACCORDING TO KITCO.COM/

$19.20 according to Apmex as of 11:30:07 AM CST.

Oh how I wish I had bought more silver last year when the price was
below $12. I still want an 8 oz. silver round, but I do not want to
buy one and have the price drop.

On the plus side, many of the silver coins (even some of the better
grades) that I did buy during the past year are now worth more than I
paid including shipping. Just wish I had bought more.

Heck I bought a boatload of silver at the beginning of last month and
already I am making a profit. I just have to make sure I sell in time.
These things tend to take the escalator up and the elevator down.

Looks like the Young One is the winner! Congratulations! I only wish I
was born in 1980, I used my birth year for a guess.
