Looks like the RealCent forum members are ahead of the curve - but then, you probably have known that for some time.
Obviously, many of you have been quietly collecting, hoarding and waiting for copper to take off and be fully recognized as a bullion item. With the recent wall street debacles, methinks you won't be waiting too much longer.
I just wanted to drop a quick note and link to a blog post one of our numismatists here at APMEX just posted. Ted has been referenced a time or two on this forum, so I thought you 'd be happy to see that you have his attention  .
With this attention, I think we may begin to see additional traction in the copper market - which may ultimately drive some value into the bullion. Time will tell.
Here is a link to Ted's blog post on copper bullion in case you are interested in sounding off and offering your opinions.

Thanks for the heads up Dave. I posted some comments on Ted's blog and included a link to realcent in my signature (he can include or delete that if he wants no problem). Comments are waiting for approval.
I also created a link to Dave's blog post under our links section as a way to drive a little thank-you traffic to your blog. I'm very pleased with the leadership APMEX is showing in the copper bullion area. I would hate to see eBay get all the action.
Hopefully other members here will leave good comments on Ted's blog as well. |

Glad to see the attention this is getting. Nice.

| The most surprising thing about Realcent is how a subdomain on a random forum site, which had its original domain name hijacked, could be so successful and attract so many new people every day. We do get a link from Coinflation but that can't be the only reason. |

Great Members, really great admin from Ardent, timely discussion, and a time tested and proven basic concept. Removing coins from circulation when intrinsic value exceeds face has been going on since soon after coins were invented. |

IMHO - people all over the world are starving for information. Information is power.
When a forum such as Real Cent consistently stays on topic, provides solid and valuable information and offers a free-flow exchange of ideas - people will find it regardless of where it is. Google and the other engines will find it too, index the info and point searchers to Real Cent as an "authority".
Right now Google ranks Real Cent in the 8th position for "copper bullion", ranks 1st-3rd position for "hoarding pennies" and 1st-2nd for "hoarding copper" and 3rd-4th for "copper and nickle hoarding" --- this is a direct result of these keyword terms (and many others) being used on the forums - Google picks up on it and ranks accordingly.
Good job! Bravo. Keep the great info flowing and the eyeballs will keep coming to you guys.

| I think it's because when I put "bullion forum" Into google you pop up first natural link. |

JOBIII - list them on ebay, you'll have very little competition, only pennybullion and one other regularly selling there but the small $50 face lots are fetching 1.5 plus shipping  |
Hoard now and hold on!
