Paper, schmaper..... I just bought a load of 90% silver coins. Physical gold and silver is better than a worthless piece of paper. Silver bullion supply is dwindling, as I see dealers deliveries are out anywhere from a week or two to six weeks. Gold coins, both foreign & domestic seem to still be readily available. The US Mint says they will run out of gold blanks for American Gold Eagle coins soon if sales stay at the present pace. They also set records for Silver Eagle sales in December and January.
