I'm not the kind of person that takes bullshit.

You also don't sound like the kind of person one should trust to run a website dealing with people's money.

You are obviously knowledgeable on these. Any online references you know of? I never got too much into ancient coins because it seemed like there was so [too] much to learn.

You might like wildwinds.com for help in identifying ancient coins. Here's yours for instance http://www.wildwinds.com/coins/sear5/s7200.html#RIC_0020a

Also there's a bit more to the original story above. The parents kept the children confined to the house. The children are now seeing for the first time in their lives other people.

A few years ago a German family got asylum in US for exactly this reason (being persecuted by their home government due to their children's education choice).?

No, they didn't. The asylum was immediately revoked in second instance and the people laughed out of court.

Good job German government.

Children need social contact to other children and professional education.

There is compulsory education in the EU for good reason, if the parents don't like it, they can move to Iran, USA or Saudi Arabia.
For your information parents who decide to homeschool their children have to meet education requirements and its not uncommon for them to outperform their public school peers.
Children don't belong to the government, they belong to their parents.

Actually we see the results of US style homeschooling every day on these Internets and let me tell you it ain't pretty.

Also like a dime, this coin (as well as all Denarius coins) contains a specific amount of silver, which is a hair greater than that of a pre-'65 dime.

That is quite impossible as by 200 AD the silver amount in Denarii sank way below 50 % total material. At a raw weight of 3,4 g for a 200 AD denarius we are talking less than 1,7 g silver. The pre-65 dime weighs 2,5 g with a 90 % silver content, so 2,25 g of silver.

Also while it is correct that in 211 BC when the first Denarii were made, a Denarius was equivalent to a days pay for a laborer or common soldier, this value was dropping rapidly, especially after the numerous modifications to raw weight and silver content after 64 AD.  By 200 AD, Denarii were completely and utterly worthless.
Kinda like the silver dimes and the current dimes.  Sad

Kinda, yeah.

Fun fact: the person shown seated on the reverse of the coin above is Securitas, goddess of stability and security (more in the sense of "feeling secure" not as much in the sense of "homeland security gonna bash a stick on your head"). Now that should be an incentive for a silver bug.

Well, I was thinking about that until I saw this part "This loan would be used for the purchase of block erupters." and I totally can't help people go down that path to ruin with a good conscience.

Surprised with this response given the amount asked for... Thanks anyway...

Well you know how it is. It starts with one or two and then suddenly before you know it, you've got a room full of these things screaming for attention and demanding you read them bed time stories.

The thing I don't get is the OP hadn't registered here before getting scammed.  I mean a quick post would likely have prevent a loss.  Say 10 minutes to make an account, make a post, get a response that it is an obvious scam.   £1000 * 60 / 10 = £6,000 per hour.  The OP must be rolling in money for his time to be that valuable.

This. Especially since this particular site was identified here as a scam months ago.
