Just because you (and I) lived through much MUCH more affordable times for PMs doesn't mean it was always going to stay that way. Who are you...
I love gold and have a Garand but if it came down to it, I don't think I could get myself to trade the Garand (I built from new parts) for both of...
This is what I was going to say. Buying is easy. You really learn if you sell or attempt to sell. Selling forces you to be a better buyer...

I ordered one of the Liberty medals with the neat looking eagle and the tree back in August with something else. I forgot it got put on...
Surface is way too granular on that. Looks like it was sandblasted clean and allowed to re-tone. Sometime take an old cent and wire wheel it....
