[QUOTE="williamtipton, post: 7358, member: 815"]Yeah, we certainly have differnt approaches..... I keep my boullion investing and like the coin collecting totally separate. I started collecting coins bcause i like them......the second i see them as valuable Ill lose interest in collecting altegether and just be seeing the dollar value attached. Of course i know the approximate value of my collection so far, but Ive been staying away from any gold coins intentionally so I dont mentally connect them with my boullion. Silver coins are great cause the silver value in them is so small.......there very little chance that the silver content in the 1600 3 Krueger I recently bought will ever be worth more than what its worth just as a collectable. Funny things with coins or any collectable, take away the buyers, say due to hard financial times, and the coin becomes virtually worthless... I collect coins that are worth very little.......... I mean, the most Ive paid so far was about $15 for a 1693 Saxony 1/12 thaler........so as a collectable its worth 3 times what i paid for it..... But I dont want to part with my coins in hard times.........Id rather have a truckload of silver and Platinum bars to sell...[/QUOTE]
