<Surely, as a coin collector, you have heard of the privately minted Moffat gold coin> Good example of my earlier point. They started minting in July 1849, by Janaury 1851 they were a subcontractor for Humbert (US Assay Office authorized by Treasury) and by December 1853 they were gone (acquired by new SF branch mint when Assay Office closed) - not very sucessful, eh ? Minor problems like weight, purity, and dies ;) The current definitions I use: medal - piece of metal with a design token - medal used as a currency substitute coin - medal, authorized by a government for use as money We coin collectors like to think of all current US Mint products as coins to distinguish them from medals, tokens, and other questionable private crap sold as "collectible" on the Home Shopping Network at ridiculous prices.

I stand corrected. Checking my email this evening, I got this message(printed below) from Kitco canceling my order this morning. Should have known I wouldn't be lucky enough to flip them pools in a day for a buck plus profit Huo-hum, maybe next week or even tomorrow or Friday. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This morning at approx 10:00 AM EST we experienced a technical problem causing an incorrect silver quote. The problem was corrected at 11:30AM. Therefore all orders placed for silver on April 28, 2004 between 10:00 am and 11:30 am will be rejected. Providing accurate information to our customers and web site visitors is one of our highest priorities. We are investigating the cause of the problem and will take what ever action is needed to ensure that it does not recur. We apologize for any inconveniences this may have caused.
