Message:: [QUOTE="sunflower, post: 954328, member: 23219"]I kindly disagree. 35 years from now, the Panda's might be what saves a person and helps with interests of safe passage. There was an expression in the 1770's - "The British are coming." In the 1970's, the waling was more like - "The Russians" are coming. Before 2050, it will be "The Chinese are here."  Chinese ingots might become even more valuable in the future. That is where I would be if it were possible. I have only gifted out one gold 1/10 oz. Panda. I do not currently own any. Like others responding to this thread, I am attracted to the metals and bullion coming out of Mexico. I especially like the $50 dollar gold piece, and the 1 oz. Silver Libertads. I have a few of both.  My favorite item from the Perth Mint are the Kookoburrs.  As far as future surprises go, I am leaning on the U.S. nickel.  Good for Elaine to have the courage to bring up the topic of Pandas. Krispy's insight to the die, might suggest that a MS65 or better Panda would be worth a premium in the future.  Thanks for posting. Silver was in the $5.50 an oz. range when I started my then small and humble collection in silver. The lion's share, quantity wise is more in the $14.50 spot oz. range.  Happy collecting.[/QUOTE]
