Banknote(s) of the Month, July 2011 - The "Blue Dollar"
A few years ago, there was a word of mouth and internet conspiracy theory that the US Government and/or Federal Reserve was planning a new US Dollar as a way to stem what some speculated was a coming hyper-inflation. There was even a term on Wall Street that I heard used on one of the financial news stations called "the Blue Dollar trade" - ie, buying anything of tangible value like copper, gold, silver, oil, etc in anticipation of a major currency event and the devaluation of the US Dollar. I also heard that the re-valuation would be one Blue Dollar for every 3 old Federal Reserve Note. These theories were shown incorrect with the passage of time and furthermore, the images of the two different designs were simply fictional contest entries in a dollar re-design project that was unrelated to the US government. They are very interesting graphics, so even though they aren't real notes, I wanted to share them with my readers.

Silver of the Week, VI
The silver of the week for July 3 - July 9 is the A&M Fine Metals 1 gram silver bullion bar. They are hand-made in Indiana, USA by an acquaintance of mine. He mints them periodically and puts them up for sale in various ways, including through E-Bay and the online metal retailer "Copper Cave". They are .999 silver and have a great classic look to them!
Silver quote of the Month, July 2011
"I think in the case of silver, which of course had a huge catch-up move with gold and then had a shakeout after that because it moved far too fast, the low of that correction period is in and I think we’re within days of the correct moment to be buying back into silver again."
