<p>[QUOTE=&quot;princeofwaldo, post: 26578581, member: 24091&quot;]1902-S $20 in raw XF from the coin kiosk at the local mall (Yorktown - Lombard, Illinois) around mid-1985 for $472 at a time when gold was about $335 an ounce.&nbsp; Many years later it slabbed AU55.&nbsp; Eventually traded it along with $300 for a 1928 $20 in MS63 around 2014.&nbsp; Sold the Saint in 2025 for around $3,500 and you could still say I got killed on it, at least in inflation adjusted terms.&nbsp; Or not.&nbsp; A brand new Ford Thunderbird cost about $11,000 in 1985 or nearly 25 of the double-eagles.&nbsp; Today, can buy a new car for considerably less than 25 ounces of gold.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
