<p>[QUOTE=&quot;lordmarcovan, post: 4540092, member: 10461&quot;]OK, yeah, I&#039;ve been on a bit of a spree. Two pieces of gold in 24 hours, neither of which I expected to win.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m into this one for about 2x spot, which some may say is too much on a piece of modern gold. But look at Lord Buddha there. So tranquil... so <i>golden...</i> so ... <i><b>sold!</b></i></p><p><br /></p><p>Besides, I&#039;ve never had a coin from Nepal before.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://us.v-cdn.net/6027503/uploads/editor/t2/wkn1moebfktf.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Pop. 6/2; mintage 15,000.</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://www.pcgs.com/cert/37128569" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.pcgs.com/cert/37128569" rel="nofollow">https://www.pcgs.com/cert/37128569</a></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://us.v-cdn.net/6027503/uploads/editor/yp/aaeygp78c53i.jpeg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><b>Side note: </b>when I was a wee lad, back around &#039;73 or so, my grandmother used to take me to this fancy Chinese restaurant in or near Sarasota, Florida, which was called ... <b><i>The Golden Buddha</i></b>.&nbsp; And of course there was a giant golden Buddha statue in there. And swirling dragons and paper lanterns and red lacquer everywhere- all that wonderful stuff. It properly blew my seven-year-old mind, and I declared myself a Buddhist on the spot. I knew nothing of Buddhism, of course. I just totally loved that place. Happy, happy memories.</p><p><br /></p><p>So there ya go. I just splurged on a golden Buddha.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
