higher metals prices are good for treasure hunters or not ?

[scrounger d detector collector]

at first thought it might seem great to see gold and silver go up big.

especially if u have hoarded as many tneters do.

wow, i found a gold ring worth 100 dollars! sound so much more

impressive than i found a 50 dollar ring.

until u pull up at ur fav ff rest to find the dollar menu is now the 2 dollar valu menu.

any thoughts ?

Gold and silver doesn't make you rich all it does is protect the value of your dollar!. When the dollar menu price hits two dollars the item price didnt change but the VALUE of your dollars did. Metal Bid Ask
Gold $1,056.50 $1,057.50 13.10
Silver $17.77 $17.82 0.31
