Before this precious metals bull market has run its course, people will be lined up at coin shops (at least in the U.S., where such a thing exists) begging to buy gold and silver coins. The fact that no one asked Mark any questions about the coin, in an effort to ascertain its authenticity, shows that this precious metals bull has a long way to run yet. People in the West have been divorced from the correct conception of what money actually is. That will change, and soon.
