[QUOTE="Dougmeister, post: 2026519, member: 56842"]I have $60 in "gift certificates" and can't decide how best to spend it. I was going to work on my U.S. type set, but I stopped by today and they didn't have anything I wanted. SO... This is what I had time to photograph. I have my own ideas, but would love to hear yours. Coins are more fun, but bullion is a better investment. I'm doing both, so that question in and of itself doesn't help me. Caveats: 1) I realize the prices are rather inflated (but hey, not for me!) 2) Grade is almost impossible to gauge because I could only photograph the obverse, with my smart phone, through a glass display case. [U][B][I]Bullion[/I][/B][/U] $39: 2013 ASE $30: 2014 Maple Leaf $30: 2014 Panda [B][U][I]Old Coins[/I][/U][/B] $40: $2 of junk silver [SIZE=1](all dimes OR all quarters OR all halves; for $1 less, a mixture)[/SIZE] $39: 1886-O Morgan $36: 1879 Morgan $27: 1879-O Morgan $27: 1924 Peace (2 available) $27: 1922 Peace $24: 1884 Morgan $10: Walkers (8 available) [B][U][I]Other[/I][/U][/B] $39: 1923 Silver Certificate (not pictured)[/QUOTE]
