Welcome to the forum! That's pretty cool to take a look back in time like that. Makes me wish I got into the silver game a bit earlier. Thanks for posting and good luck with your half hunting.

Great post! Fascinating...What I wouldn't give to buy coins at those prices

Great link, thanks. 2004 was not that long ago. Holy cow.

Wow 5X face, I wish I would have gotten into the game a bit sooner! Cool to see, thanks!

Thanks for the site. I was trying to get APMEX to load from back when I started but there's some kind of hitch. It was springtime of 2003, and I bought ten ounces of various gold ounces for $322 avg. Welcome to the forum

Those silver prices sure were nice. I remember back in Aug/Sep 2005 making my first serious plunge into silver, buying all the 90% junk I could find at 5x face. I would tally up the net silver ounces on coinflation.com each day until I finally hit my 1000 Oz target. Wouldn't it be nice to have another buying opportunity like that again?
