<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ede1964, post: 8157352, member: 103629&quot;]I started just collecting coins when I was young. I had never given graded coins a whole lot of consideration as the premium seemed excessive for a poor guy. After having a few hundred dollars face value “disappear”, my life had taken a few turns, I decided to start again but with graded proof coins to match purchases made from the mint. Silver always caught my eye and for my income bracket I could acquire some nice pieces affordably. A handful of years ago again some life turns, loss of friends and budgeting I needed to be more selective and so mostly looked for deals on raw or proof70’s. Things again changed in early 2020 when I expanded once again my acquisitions, or should I say that I lost&nbsp; focus? I acquired some Japanese coins and other world coins really making it hard to concentrate on any particular set. So early this year I chose a small goal, I decided I would try to aquire the 2019 Apollo 11 50th Anniversary set which is the whole point of this post as it has two pieces in its composition that are gold. I didn’t expect to fill these spots any time this soon as I need other much less costly coins in this set. Well I happened across the circulation strike on eBay but the posted price was more than I could afford, this was Dec 26, even though there was not a “make an offer” choice I contacted the seller, after some negotiations I became the new owner of a piece of gold, my first gold coin or otherwise! How beautiful this little coin is and I now have contracted the “gold-bug” LOL It’s been two weeks and last night I had the winning bid on a perfect proof specimen of the $5 Apollo 11 50th Anniversary. I don’t have all the silver coins to finish that set. Now my coin budget is extended out on two bids currently on two more gold pieces… this is how my gold garden is growing :-D</p><p>If anyone has a reasonable price on a set of 2019-P $1 MS70 and PR70DCAM Apollo 11 50th let me know, right now I have to make an investment account withdrawal order in case I win these gold pieces.
