[QUOTE="bg35765, post: 1760682, member: 42710"]Silver is the opposite of scarce. More people than ever have rolls, bags, bars, and monster boxes of it in their basements or safe deposit boxes. From the legacy perspective you have good intentions and I would like to do the same thing. But I would caution you to look at historical mintage charts of silver and gold eagles before buying. Fifty years from now the 2011, 2012, and 2013 bullion eagles will be the equivalent of a 1921 Morgan Dollar. Not a bad coin or something that your ancestors wouldn't appreciate, but just extremely common. There are options out there that will cost substantially more but would give you the benefit of both bullion value and some numismatic value. Or if you insist on buying bullion, at least buy the 5 oz. ATB pucks which will not have huge mintages like the silver eagles.[/QUOTE]
