Remember silver? It's gotten very pricey

Just opened an email from a reputable online precious metals and coin dealer. It's offering a special on $100 bags of Barber dimes starting at $2,628 for cash buyers. At a thousand dimes to a bag, that's $2.63 per dime.

The same dealer's website shows a five dollar roll of 'good or better' Barbers selling for $197, that's $3.94 a dime.

Barber dimes were minted by the U.S. from 1892 to 1916. A dime was real money back then. Still is, if you have ones like the Barbers that are made of silver.
