Well  - - - - - - - at the Midland Coin Fair   a "LARGE" (perceived) dealer , whilst I stood clearly displaying "The Silver Forum" on my chest by way of T-shirt.

When I said (deliberately BTW)  Ooooohhh thats nice  , to a displayed "Bull of Clarence" Bullion 2 ouncer - - 

Out loud - He Said "OH YEAH -  THAT'S  A RARE PIEDFORT" -  

I struggled like heck to stop giggling in his face!  - it was priced at £150!!!!!!

MORAL - - even large traders can be BLATANT DODGY CHANCER'S - and RIGHT IN YER FACE !!! 

SO BE CAREFUL OUT THERE  - especially "Newbies" 

Ps  - I told @SovTracker of this when back at our desk and we laughed together!

This is pretty awful because someone may have bought it. I know we all learn lessons and that some are expensive lessons, but this is abusive.

Name and shame.

When I have VERIFIED that I have EXACTLY the right name a little later today - then for sure I will!! 👍

I really just thought - "HOW STOOPID" as I was clearly displaying the tee shirt LOGO of TSF - -

He clearly had NO IDEA - that some here may know a  teeny tiny little bit about "SILVER"

That's why I thought I would share this  - - especially for less experienced - the kind of shenanigans that can occur!

It is of course possible that he doesn’t know what he is doing and took it off a chancer who saw their options wide open.......he may have paid over odds too. 

It could've been a 10ozer and you didn’t have your glasses on too...
