[QUOTE="sakata, post: 2733074, member: 23778"]A mixture, and each for different reasons. 1) I buy US junk silver and ASEs for the current going price because I think I can sell them for about the same relative to melt. 2) I buy world silver coins when I can get them below value. By value, I have a formula I use based on fineness. Same with modern world gold coins. 3) I buy gold bars only if in original packaging from an accepted mint (Pamp Suisee for example). 4) I buy silver rounds and bars only from reputable companies and only if I think the price is fair based on recent premium levels. 5) I buy pre-1930s world gold coins based on their current market value for the condition they are in. I do not spend equally in each of these categories. I probably spend most on 2 and 5 and least on 3 and 4. However, as my budget is not large there are years where I spend nothing on some of the categories.[/QUOTE]
