    If we continue on a deflationary trend from China or Europe, these will be sold down.

    I can see gold at $800/oz. and silver in single-digits in a few months or sometime in 2016.

    The low price is not surprising, the high price was. This was a classic bubble, specially silver, I see no reason for gold and silver to not continue their fall.

    ok so it is better to just buy coins for nuismatic value then bullion for the silver or gold value.

    Don't buy. Silver will fall further. Say low in price for years.

    Do your own research and do not listen to someone's opinion on an online forum (even this one). No one knows the future although most are willing to guess. This guess is called speculation. Speculations are not investments. Doesn't matter whether you are talking about bullion or numismatic coins.

    I know you are trying to figure out how to spend some money, you have had other threads like this. My advice remains the same, separate your investment money from your spending money. Then, consider coins, or bullion, purchases as spending money, and buy what you like. It's hard to ignore value, but don't think of coins, or bullion, as a long term investment.

    Honestly I don't purchase coins based on what they will be worth in the future. If they are all worth nothing, I am still glad I purchased them. I buy coins because it's my hobby. My wife likes to go to dinner. We buy dinner, have a good time, eat good food, and the money we spend is out of our lives forever. Consider coins as the same, something you spend money on because you enjoy it, and treat the money as gone.

    It is the good success of the US Dollar compared to other currencies. As the dollar goes up, PM will go down. Consider buying currencies as I don't see a huge turnabout for a while.
    Levels not even dreamed of 6 years ago.

    Today : USD/Canadian 1.262
    USD/Swiss Franc .984
    EUR/USD 1.08 ( maybe headed to 1:1 )

    Young isn't an excuse, it's an advantage. Time is the best friend of sound investments.

    The deflationary "trend" has certainly been welcomed, especially at the gas pump. I don't realistically expect this anomaly to become a trend. Oil has been a totally manipulated market since 1974. OPEC has been quite successful in setting global oil prices, much to the delight of major oil refiners.

    The Saudis have bucked the system and have not reduced production to maintain the crude pricing model. WTI is currently trading at $49/bbl. World storage is becoming quite valuable due to the attractive pricing.

    Even with the Saudi gift, "mysterious refinery fires" and labor unrest have inflated the price of gasoline by .20/gal at US pumps in the past 3 weeks. If the Saudis take years to stick it to the Iranians, and to a lesser extent the Russians, the large refiners will easily find methods to increase the price of their product.

    In a terribly over simplistic formula, watch the geo-politics involved with crude. If the Saudis get back in the game and cut production, crude prices will increase to the level that they desire. With a large crude increase, back to >$100/bbl, inflationary pressures drive up price of PM. The real nightmare would be if OPEC decides to start pricing their commodity in a currency other than the dollar.

    YOUNG GUYS, Goldfinger has expressed it beautifully! Buy on weakness, sell on strength. And remember, you have the most valuable of all commodities, YOUTH!
