<p>[QUOTE="green18, post: 2016354, member: 10103"]I like the shiny metal. I sold most of the 'bullion' off at $35. The collectible 'shinnies' are still in my collection. They look too pretty to sell. The amassing of bullion (modest amassment) initiated because I like shinny coins. It occurred shortly after I returned to collecting in the early part of the 2000 decade. I never intended to 'invest'.......I just like shinny coins (and lots of them). One day I discovered that I had more shinnies than I really needed and not enough 'collectibles' in a certain area of numismatics, so I sold some of the shinnies to 'fund' the collectibles. No amount of planning ever replaces dumb luck.......sold for a modest profit. Still, I think the 'master' in the Parable of the Talents (Mathew 25: 14-30) would have cast me out. In my defense I would have stated that I do own stocks and some real estate.........<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
