[QUOTE="Collector1966, post: 1222546, member: 17919"]Why are you stuck on 1999/2000? I seriously doubt there were too many people who actually bought at $800 in 1980 and waited until 2000 to sell it at a low. And if someone had bought gold at the 1980 low of $474, they could have sold it at a profit long before 2000, like at the high of nearly $600 in 1981. And speaking of 1981, I nearly doubled my money on a $20 St. Gaudens that I had bought in 1978 for $320. There are always highs and lows in each year from 1980 to 2000 where one could have conceivably made a profit dealing in gold in each year, and there are only 2 year sets between 1980 and 2000 where someone would have theoretically lost money buying at the low of one year and selling it at the high of the next year.
