<p>[QUOTE="Drusus, post: 1632034, member: 6370"]I think this post says it. I was going to buy gold just to stash away. I did and at the price I bought it at years and years ago I could sell it and double my investment. The problem I had was...I don't like gold that much...I like silver. With both of these metals I just couldn't bring myself to buy just rounds or bars...I want something interesting stamped on it...because in the end...I like gold, silver, copper, etc...but I like them in disc form with artistry and propaganda <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> So I bought Krugerrands which are interesting to me and then I bought up gold coins from German princely states and French coins of Napoleon III and other old coins minted in gold (as for silver, I got a ton of that in coin form already). I don't like the metal, I like how the designs look when stamped on metal. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> In the end, I am not driven by a desire to get rich or that everything I collect needs to be able to make a profit (if this ends up the case, all the better) as I have never sold a coin in my life and, if I cared about getting rich, I wouldn't have spent, literally thousands of dollars, setting up a mint in my home to mint coins that I give away.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
