can anybody point me in the right direction?

If you want to shop around through other brokers or buy on the Internet by all means do so.

I went into the coin dealer and asked if I could cash my weekly paycheck for gold and silver coin. He said yes. I cashed it and said "Thank you". I walked out of the store with legal and lawful gold and silver united States of America dollars and a receipt showing what I received cash in hand. No I.D. requested, no hassles, just the inconvenience of looking for a parking space.

My intent was twofold:
1. Stabilize myself and others in my community financially by using money for goods and services.
2. Reducing my tax liability. Say I have a check for $900.00 and a one oz. fifty dollar gold coin is valued at $900.00 then I discharge the check for the coin. I am taxed on what I receive cash in hand, not what the check says.
If I am challenged by the tax collectors paperwork (W-2) then I show them my paperwork which is the receipt from the coin dealer. The receipt contradicts the W-2. I was paid fifty dollars NOT nine hundred Federal Reserve Notes. The tax collector knows that one of these is defined as legal and lawful American dollars and the other is not defined in law as a dollar.
We cannot have two kinds of dollars in this country. It would violate Article I, Section 8, Clause 5, regarding equal weights and measures. Now the burden of proof lies with the tax collector to show me the law that defines Federal Reserve Notes as legal and lawful dollars or money. Checkmate; I haven't been audited in eleven years. This is too hot an issue for them to mess with. This, by the way, is how the billionaires do it.
