It was great fun to visit with my pal, The Doc, today. It was also highly informative as we discussed the dynamics of being a bullion dealer and how this impacts physical supply and demand of gold and silver coins.
Among the topics discussed in this 53-minute call:
- How does “coin allocation” from the US Mint work
- What does it mean to be an Authorized Participant at the wholesale level
- How do large dealers manage risk and inventory
- What types of coins are the biggest sellers and why
- The advantages of 90% silver and why people own it
- Current demand and supply trends within the industry
