Good on ‘em, if they can. A magazine ad like the ones you reference can be well into 5 figures and you probably can’t run just one of them. It takes a lot of selling coins with under $3 of Ag in them for $29.95 to buy such ads. But there are people who can market such things feasibly. I’m not one of them. I suspect Americans would buy “Gold Rush” gold coins a bit faster than they would buy Indian Rupees. I used to collect coins, then I bought junk silver for a long time. Now I think coin collecting is bit on the dopey side. But to each his/her own.

Not long ago someone bought up all the Mexican Peso coins they could and was selling them high dollar as “THE LAST OF THE SILVER COINS!” A Mexican peso does have some silver in them, but no where near what an American Silver coin had in them.
