You do it to hold that particular security. Now I have two categories. If I feel like I want to add a coin to my collection, well, then I look for a coin with numismatic value and add it as part of my hobby. If I feel like I want to add to my investment holding, then I search for something coin, bar, round or otherwise at the best price I can get. I keep them separated just as I wouldn't add stock certificates, CDs, or savings account statements to my coin collection. They're two very different worlds and I think should be viewed as such. </p><p><br /></p><p>Don't do anything that you're not comfortable or happy with.
