[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 1052521, member: 112"]A fair question. And so far the answers are about what you would expect them to be. But I always have to wonder what people are basing their answers on. Here's what I mean. First let's take a look at what gold bullion has done vs gold coins for the past 10 years. Gold bullion - [IMG]http://www.pcgs.com/images/graphs/gspot10graph.gif[/IMG] Generic gold coins - [IMG]http://www.pcgs.com/images/graphs/gengold10graph.gif[/IMG] Mint State gold coins - [IMG]http://www.pcgs.com/images/graphs/msgold10graph.gif[/IMG] Now I'd be willing to bet that some of you are kinda surprised by those graphs. And I'll admit the past 10 years does present a bit of a skewed picture because gold started taking off 10 years ago. But then so did coins. So let's take a look at what has happened in the past 40 years. Gold bullion - [IMG]http://www.pcgs.com/images/graphs/gspotallgraph.gif[/IMG] Generic gold coins - [IMG]http://www.pcgs.com/images/graphs/gengoldallgraph.gif[/IMG] Mint State gold coins - [IMG]http://www.pcgs.com/images/graphs/msgoldallgraph.gif[/IMG] I'll let you draw your own conclusions ;)[/QUOTE]
