<p>[QUOTE=&quot;sky, post: 203427, member: 3238&quot;]thanks for all the replies. i have thought about the 1/10 oz coins as well, but i suppose i would have the same question as to which to go for. as for my goal, it is more or less just to pick up some gold without much of a concern regarding the &quot;coin&quot; aspect of it. that said, i am trying to just go for a yearly release that i can still appreciate for its appearance above and beyond the value of the metal. i like the look of the eagle, but i was just curious how any possible resale value 30 or 40 or more years down the road would be affected due to the pureness of the gold? i have read many people suggest the maple leaf and more recently the buffalo due to this fact. as for silver, i have been collecting that for a few years mainly with the same foucs in mind.</p><p><br /></p><p>i realize one is paying a premium for the smaller coins and i would be better served going about this in a different manner from an &quot;investment&quot; point of view, but i am not really looking at it as an invesment per se, but kind of a fun way to put some money away and enjoy it as well. instead of checking accounts on a computer screen. as for going for a 1 oz coin or more, i am just looking for some fun with a minor concern on the investment side as i am trying to put every cent i can into my 401, iras and other vehicles so that i might have something 50 years from now. i am sure i will need every cent by then.</p><p><br /></p><p>thanks again for past and any future input. i may just go towards the 1/2 oz eagle, or perhaps two 1/4 oz coins. i am sure it will take me forever to decide.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
