[QUOTE="JJK78, post: 1254052, member: 19207"]Greetings everyone, I have been debating this over the past few weeks and would like your opinions. The coins in question are my 2008 w UNC $5 & $10 Gold Eagles in original box w/ COA, and my 2008 w UNC $5 & $10 Gold Buffalos - $10 is PCGS MS70 First Strike w/box & COA, $5 is NGC MS70 First Year of Issue. These coins while limited are not really "hot" anymore and prices seem to be a bit stagnant. If I sell these coins it would give me about $5,000 give or take to reinvest, and with all the great stuff that is out or coming out that I think will also be good investments could yield a bigger return in the long run. Certainly over time these coins will appreciate in value as all rare coins have, but I don't want to wait 20+ years to see a better return - call me impatient :) But I also think that the 2011 W 1oz Eagle will be a winner, along with the 5 coin Silver Eagle Set that is coming out etc.. The other option is to sell these and buy some plain jane gold bullion, probably eagles although the new premiums on them are outrageous. But still I could turn 7/10's of an oz. of gold in to 2.5~oz. oh what to do what to do! Sooo I guess i'll make poll out of it and look forward to reading your responses. Thanks! J[/QUOTE]
