[QUOTE="GoldFinger1969, post: 3875549, member: 73489"]Many of us do both and started in one or the other and gravitated towards the other.:D [B][COLOR=#ff0000]WARNING: SPECULATIVE ACTIVITY AHEAD !! :D:D[/COLOR][/B] To the 'Nth degree !!! Stocks go up over time, especially as the time frame increases. Compounding works to your benefit. These variables do NOT come into play with coins, bullion OR numismatics. [B][I]Caveat Emptor !![/I][/B] If those are your time frames, I think it's POSSIBLE that some coins would be LIKELY to appreciate -- but I'm not as confident as an investment in a 10-year Treasury bond or even AT&T or Proctor & Gamble stock. I think you need to do ALOT MORE RESEARCH here before you "risk" your $10K. [B][COLOR=#b30000][U]But if you need a place to start....I would say that common and semi-common Saint-Gaudens gold coins have both bullion and numismatic value and are among the LEAST RISKY things out there if you do your research and buy smart (or at least don't buy super-dumb:D). Maybe Morgan Silver Dollars, too (but the premium to bullion is much higher).[/U][/COLOR][/B] The one area that does seem to be moving up is foreign or world coins, but that's not my area of expertise though we are talking about it in the PCGS 3000 index area and other threads.[/QUOTE]
