House Panel OK's Gold and Silver as Legal Tender

by Meg Kinnard:  Associated Press


COLUMBIA, S.C. — South Carolina residents would be able to use gold and silver coins as currency under a bill advanced Tuesday by a House panel.
The measure approved by the House Judiciary Committee would let people use the precious metals as money as long as businesses agree to take them. Legislators had made the argument that they didn't want to force businesses to take the metals and have to figure out the worth of the coins from one day to the next and amended the bill to remove such a requirement.

"Dr Doom" sees Iran-Israel clash, says buy precious metals

By Sitaraman Shankar
DUBAI (Reuters) - Political risk in the Middle East has increased significantly with war between Iran and Israel almost inevitable, and precious metals and equities investments offer some safety, Swiss money manager and long-term bear Marc Faber said on Tuesday.   LINK...
*******************
Remember the USA put sanctions on Iran in November of 1979 and gold more than doubled from $400 to $850 in January 1980. With similar tensions building in Iran, could we see the same this time around? After such a violent drop in the metals recently we suggest this is a GREAT buying opportunity right now, for long-term investors! BK

Utah House OKs More Gold Changes

The Utah Legislature isn’t quite done with gold as currency yet.
On Friday, the House approved a resolution to support the state’s freshly minted law that allows business to be conducted in precious metals as opposed to traditional U.S. currency, and another bill passed that would more easily allow both sales and capital gains taxes in gold. Both now move to the Senate.
