Precious metals, rare currency, and the timeless wisdom behind real money. The faces on your bills built a nation — know what you hold.
For 5,000 years, gold and silver have been money. Every fiat currency in history has gone to zero. Metals don't.
The ultimate store of value. Central banks hoard it. Governments fight wars over it. From 1oz Eagles to 400oz LBMA bars — gold is the foundation of every serious portfolio.
The people's metal. Industrial demand meets monetary history. Silver Eagles, 90% junk silver, and hand-poured bars — more volatile than gold, but the upside potential is massive.
Pre-1933 gold coins, Morgan silver dollars, rare key dates. When bullion value meets collector premium, you get assets that appreciate on two axes. History you can hold.
Star notes, silver certificates, gold-backed bills, and large-size nationals. The art of American paper money tells the story of the dollar itself.
The PGMs — rarer than gold, driven by industrial demand. Platinum Eagles, catalytic converter demand, and a supply squeeze that could rewrite the price chart.
Dollar cost average into metals. Keep your gold/silver ratio in check. Know when to buy weight vs. premium. Build a stack that weathers any storm.

“Gold is money. Everything else is credit.”
Every denomination tells a story. Know the faces, know the history, know the value of what you hold.
Pre-1964 bills backed by actual silver in the U.S. Treasury. Blue seal notes redeemable for physical silver dollars. The last honest paper money.
Replacement bills printed when errors occur. Marked with a star in the serial number. Low print runs make certain star notes worth 10-100x face value.
Once redeemable for gold coin at any Federal Reserve bank. Orange-gold seals, issued 1865-1933. Recalled by FDR. Illegal to hold until 1964.
