<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Troodon, post: 26554477, member: 4626&quot;]2005-W 1/10 oz. American gold eagle, that I received as a Christmas gift from my parents in 2005.&nbsp; Many years later I got it graded by ANACS (PF-69 DCAM).&nbsp; I also saved the original OGP in a separate box where I save all the packaging from coins I put in albums or got graded.&nbsp; I did not ask for it and was not expecting it, and it&#039;s still one of the gifts I was most excited to get.&nbsp; It is very much on my &quot;never sell it&quot; list!</p><p><br /></p><p>3 years later received a 2008 1/10 oz. American gold eagle, also as a Christmas gift from my parents, when it looked like they may permanently discontinue fractional AGEs (Mint later decided against doing so, although they did discontinue fractional gold buffaloes, making 2008 the only year they were minted, and also discontinued fractional American platinum eagles).&nbsp; I have sold that one, and regretted doing so.&nbsp; But I reasoned I still have the 2005 and that has more sentimental value to me, since it was a very special gift and the first gold coin I ever owned.</p><p><br /></p><p>First one I purchased myself was a 1976 (year I was born) gold sovereign that I&#039;ve since sold.&nbsp; It&#039;s on my list to buy again once I can reasonably afford to do so.&nbsp; (A close second is a fractional gold buffalo; was almost going to buy one in 2008 but wasn&#039;t able to scrape up the money to do so.&nbsp; It&#039;s on my list!)</p><p><br /></p><p>I also owned an Indian quarter eagle that I forget the date of.&nbsp; It was ex-jewelry and I was going to put it on the Dansco 7070 gold page, but I&#039;ve since sold it and decided if I could ever afford that many gold coins, I wasn&#039;t putting them in an album anyway lol.&nbsp; Kind of wish I at least saved the page as that page itself is quite valuable.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
