[QUOTE="WingedLiberty, post: 1052778, member: 26030"][LEFT][COLOR=#000000]I see your point ... However I think the big upshot to the charts is ... look how ONLY bullion coins would have captured the explosive move starting in 2001. The rare gold coin and rare silver coin charts show much more muted gains this decade ... with the current prices nowhere near the peak prices realized in the late 1980s. One possible strategy might be to find coins that sell for only a slight premium over bullion that have low mintages and might someday get a "rarity" kicker. For example some of the First Spouse Gold coins recently minted sell for a small premium over spot ... but many have mintages of less than 10,000. If you can pick up a few of these near spot, you have little risk and some good potential upside not tied to the price of the underlying bullion. And if they never get a rarity kicker ... you still have the underlying bullion as a potential money maker in the years ahead. Just a thought. [/COLOR][/LEFT][/QUOTE]
