  • The President and Precious Metals
    THE PRESIDENT AND PRECIOUS METALS “Where secrecy or mystery begins, vice or roguery is not far off.” ---Samuel Johnson, English author Presented March 2013 by Charles Savoie “OUR GOVERNMENT PRESENTS THE SPECTACLE OF RULE BY CRIMINAL OVERLORDS WHO HAVE FREE ENTRY INTO THE WHITE HOUSE AND ASSOCIATE INTIMATELY WITH MEMBERS OF THE PRESIDENT’S FAMILY.” -(Emanuel Josephson, page 182, “Rockefeller Internationalist,” 1952) “We are living in an age in which it is impossible for anyone to reach the highest office in the United States WITHOUT SERVING INTERESTS AND POWERS THAT ARE INEXPRESSIBLY EVIL” ---(Martin Larson in his fine expose, “The Federal Reserve and Our Manipulated Dollar” 1975, pages 96-97) “WHERE AN EXCESS OF POWER PREVAILS PROPERTY OF NO SORT IS DULY RESPECTED.”- (President James Madison 1809-1817) “THE APPALLING RESIDENT OF THE WHITE HOUSE IS LITTLE BETTER THAN A BIZARRE HYBRID OF A CANNIBALISTIC VOODOO PRACTITIONER AND A PUS FLINGING, THORNY DEMON STRAIGHT OUT OF DANTE’S INFERNO! THE MONEY POWER IS USING THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT TO RUIN THE PEOPLE.” ---Charles Savoie Please don’t complain this presentation is “too long.” I can’t Vulcan mind-meld this information to you. Do you have any idea how much reading an attorney has to do to get a law degree? This won’t be but a tiny splinter as much. Also, there are no “tangents” being discussed. They are ramifications that show the extent of the influence network fighting against free markets!

THIS MEPHISTOPHELES AND HIS ASSOCIATES AND SUCCESSORS MUST BE STOPPED FROM USING THE PRESIDENT TO SEIZE SILVER AND GOLD! (There is no Simon Templar halo over his head!) Ted Butler, the most widely followed silver commentator, has often said to buy and hold physical, because that puts you beyond COMEX rule changes. That’s correct! However, there remains an immeasurably more insidious, far reaching entity that can change rules---Uncle Sam, and he’s tightly in the grasp of the same forces who’ve depressed silver for generations. Uncle Sam nationalized gold and silver in the Franklin Roosevelt administration; this is subject to a repeat! Now that the price can’t be suppressed, what’s next? FORBID OWNERSHIP! You have hours for professional sports and TV talk shows; how about some time for your property rights, without which you can go broke?

  • Collecting Peace Dollars by Thomas Coulson the Peace Dollar Was the Last Design of the 20Th Century U.S
    Liberty Coin Service Collecting Peace Dollars by Thomas Coulson The Peace Dollar was the last design of the 20th Century U.S. “Coin Renaissance” that began with Saint Gaudens’ gold designs of 1907. The new coin, like the $20.00 Saint Gaudens of 1907 was designed to be a high-relief work of art. It features a youthful Miss Liberty, patterned in part after the artist’s wife Theresa De Francisci. The reverse depicts an eagle with closed wings perched on a mountaintop with an olive branch in its grasp. At the coin’s base is prominently engraved “Peace”. The Peace Dollar was initially authorized as part of the Pittman Act of 1918 (more on that later). Though it was not specifically mentioned in 1921 Peace Dollar the form it became, it was mandated that the silver dollars melted un- der the Act had to be replaced and could be replaced by coins of a new design. After the Great War ended in 1918, interest grew in designing a coin observing the grand accom- plishment of peace that had cost so many lives in the past five years. This effort was guided by numisma- tists – most notably former ANA President Farran Zerbe; who drafted a proposal that was presented at the 1920 ANA Convention. This proposal resulted in the successful lobbying of government officials to take action. A competition for the best design was held in late November, 1921. Anthony De Francisci’s design prevailed and the Mint began production remark- ably fast on December 28, 1921. Just over a million of the new high-relief Peace Dollars were struck in the last few days of 1921.

  • Silver Suppressors Hiding in the Dark!
    SILVER SUPPRESSORS HIDING IN THE DARK! Presented As A Three Piece Series July 2014 by Charles Savoie “There is unseen by most, an underworld, a place that is just as real, but not as brightly lit ---a dark side.” ---Intro, “Tales From The Darkside” (1983-1988) “Those are the ones we want to hear about, those bad companions!” John Wayne as Texas Ranger Jake Cutter in “The Comancheros” (1961) “Who are these Pilgrims? I have since made a study of them. Their organization is one of immense power, and just now they hold our country in the hollow of their hands. They control the banks, they control the press and can sway public sentiment by means of their corrupt news services from one end of the country to the other. They are determined to force this country into war.” “A powerful and unscrupulous aristocratic plutocracy has seized upon the strength and resources of our nation. Great English bankers have been plotting here for years to seize the reins of government. So far, these men have succeeded.” “The Society of Pilgrims is operating to promote war between this country and the Central Powers of Europe.” “We have become subjects of a pro-British group of plutocrats who sneer at the wishes of the public and force it to their will.” “Enough has been shown here to demonstrate the great peril to our country of this sinister organization, the Pilgrims of the United States. I address my fellow countrymen to caution them and to warn them of the dreadful consequences that will ensue if this English banking group of Wall Street is permitted to continue in power.

  • Silver Certificates
    BUREAU OF ENGRAVING AND PRINTING DEPARTMENT OF THE TREASURY Prepared by the Historical Resource Center BEP HISTORY FACT SHEET Last Updated Apri l 20 13 SILVER CERTIFICATES Silver Certificates were authorized by the Bland-Allison act of February 28, 1878. The act allowed people to deposit silver coin in the Treasury in exchange for certificates. These Silver Certificates were to be of not less than $10 in value and have the same denominations as United States Notes. The purpose of the certificates was to give people an alternative to carrying numerous silver dollars. It was easier to carry around and transport the paper certificates than bags of coin. Silver dollars were not very popular as most people preferred to use notes. Recognizing this fact, in 1886 Congress authorized the issuance of $1, $2, and $5-denomination Silver Certificates. Silver Certificates became very popular and were the major form of currency for much of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Over the decades of the mid-twentieth century, the amount of silver and silver dollars in the Treasury declined, threatening the metallic backing of the Silver Certificates. In 1963, Congress decided to end the issuance of the certificates. To compensate for the Additional Sources loss, Federal Reserve Note production and issuance was expanded. Barbara Bither, “Designing the 1903 Silver Certificates,” 2012. Some believe that Silver Certificates were first issued in 1878 as a result of the “Free Silver” movement that began in the early 1870s. Essentially, this movement Arthur and Ira Friedberg, Paper called for the unlimited coinage of silver bullion by the government as an alternative Money of the United States, 2010.

It is clear that technology is changing how we do our jobs, how firms interact with each other, and how businesses sell to their customers. If the 1990s was the decade of the Internet, the decade during which our eyes were opened to amazing new possibilities, then this may be the decade in which those new possibilities are more fully realized — the decade of “e-commerce.” In just six years, we’ve seen an explosion of online commercial sites directed at consumers and other businesses. E-commerce is certainly a new development, but it is also the latest installment in the history of technology-driven advancement. Like other major technological breakthroughs of the past, e-commerce has the potential to bring the market economy a step closer to its theoretical potential. The cornerstone of the market economy is competition, which gives us the opportunity to choose the best product at the best price and forces us to become more efficient and productive. The result is a higher overall standard of living over time. Despite the major economic progress of the past century, however, we have not harnessed the full potential of competition to improve our lives.

  • THE STORY of SILVER Silver Prices for 200 Years
    THE STORY OF SILVER Silver Prices for 200 Years This semi-log chart shows the annual average price per troy ounce of pure silver in U.S. dollars from 1792 through 2015 and some of the major events influencing the white metal during that period. The data are spliced from the following sources: 1) The U.S. Mint price from 1792–1833; 2) The average market price reported by the Department of the Mint, 1834–1909; 3) The average of monthly prices reported by the CRB database, 1910–1946; 4) The average of daily prices reported by the CRB database, 1947–2015. The annual average price in 1980 is lower than in 2011, even though the daily peak price ($50) was higher in 1980, because daily prices fell more precipitously during 1980 compared with 2011. Note: Because of inflation, the value of $1.29 in 1792 is equivalent to $31.30 in current dollars of 2011, when silver hit a peak of $48 (based on the consumer price index calculator from the EH.net website of the Economic History Association).

Read this MMM series! (See #2 in this series) Peter Hug spewed out misdirection in a Kitco interview on March 17, 2020. Hug worked for Nick Deak who had shady connections. A far better view is at https://www.sprottmoney.com/Blog/bullion-bank- and-central-bank-collusion.html On March 19, 2020, Bob Moriarty of 321 Gold posted a brief, and childishly simplistic laughingstock denial that manipulation has just occurred to crash silver. It would win over anyone in special education class. This inadequately brief and intellectually incapacitated “golly gee whiz” article failed to address SHORT CONCENTRATION and POSITION LIMITS which Butler has long been champion of complaining about. Why address any point that shoots your la-la land idea down, Bob? Powerful foreigners who were torched by concentrated COMEX silver shorts and complicit regulators were painfully aware of the illegal short corner in silver OVER FORTY (40) YEARS AGO BOB! Nor did Bob address the obvious “rat’s rump on a banana split” interest conflicts of the scandalous staffing shuttle between the CFTC and the bullion banks! But! Bob now confirms himself as eminently acceptable in a “mental health” sense---“mentally healthy” people do not believe that big bankers are out to screw anyone! Even Treasury Secretary Douglas Dillon admitted plans to hold silver low “for many years to come” in The Economist, London, July 13, 1963, page 166.
