<p>[QUOTE="beef1020, post: 2805501, member: 24544"]I'm with you [USER=36864]@Kirkuleez[/USER] , I think the joy you get from a bag of gold outweighs the value of being careful with the material you are dealing with. I understand that people collect American gold Eagles and the Queen’s beast coins, but they are essentially gold bullion. As long as you are not paying a premium for high grade examples of these, I just don’t think you are going to hurt their value much by keeping them together in a bag. </p><p><br /></p><p>Maybe it’s just my prejudices showing through, but I don’t understand the collector mindset applied to bullion, meaning the huge importance of condition to price. I like AGEs because they are easily recognized as quality, highly liquid, and legal tender (unlike Krugerrands). I’m willing to pay the slight premium for these over gold bars because of those factors. I think there are plenty of other people buying these for similar reasons, who really would not take condition into account. Store them however you want, they are essentially gold bullion and will be worth just about the same regardless of if you store them in a bag or a tube. As long as you don’t intentionally mangle and seriously mess them up, it just won’t matter.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
