Copper Bullion, Bars and Ingots for Sale.
Copper is currently valued on the Metal Exchange Market between $3.50-$4.00 per lb, which is between 2 and 3% the value of silver.
There appears to be an increasing demand for Copper by numbers of people that expect Copper to grow in value in the same way and for the same reasons as other (more) precious metals have grown in value.

There is the argument that Copper may be a valuable exchange medium for "everyday shopping". Platinum and Gold may be a better for storage of wealth, but it will be hard to buy a day's worth of food for the family and get change with one ounce gold coin or a 10 ounce silver bar. Copper may be the "small change" for the common man.
With World-wide demand for Copper growing, prices will likely increase as have the more valuable bullion metals (Gold, Platinum, Palladium and Silver)
The U.S. pennies (pre zinc -1982) currently have about 2 cents worth of Copper in them, which prompted the U.S. Congress to make it illegal to melt pennies. While the law may prevent people (for now) from melting them, it does not prevent them from hoarding copper pennies.
The demand for scrap Copper has recently lead to increase in theft of copper wiring from highway light poles and construction sites.
Who wouldn't like to use that perfect 20:20 hindsite and buy gold after 9-11 at $279 per ounce (close on 9/12/01). Perhaps Copper is a good choice for those of us who missed the rise in Gold, Platinum and Silver.
