Silver or copper are better than gold.Reader comment on: Weiner, Waxman Set Gold Hearing Submitted by Lyle (United States), Sep 16, 2010 22:27 They are less overhyped and actually have some uses. Now of course we have seen the effects of a bubble in silver after the Hunt brothers failed corner, as we saw in 1907 on copper. Anyway if you have to advertise something someone is making a fairly large margin on it, implying there is a high private transfer tax (commission both ways) on the transaction. I suspect with these folks the transfer tax is like that on Jewelery where the purchase back price is like 40% of the retail price.
