I apologize for any confusion created by my post. Humor does not always translate well on-line. After my question about the hypothetical “Quantitative Easing” of silver coins I added the disclaimer- “No - you didn’t!”

My point was that precious metals will always win out over fiat currencies in the long run because of the irresistible temptation to print more money. In recent years the Federal Reserve has conjured up billions of dollars through various forms of financial trickery. In all that time I am quite certain that they have not brought into existence so much as one gram of actual silver.

Oh my! LOL! No apology necessary!

ROFL! I really bit down on that one, didn’t I!
:-D

And thank you for clarifying your point. It is well made... and now I can see the humor of your statement!

(Some of us take longer to catch on to things, you know!)
