An article in Numismatic News I thought was interesting.

P.S. If anyone wants to send me Gold or Silver, PM me for my address....

EDIT: I guess you will need the link to see the story....

That was very interesting, thank you.

My tastes are too specific for anyone to attempt to buy me anything, and one of the coins I bought myself arrived this morning with a very noticeable spot. (The seller fortunately is accepting the return.)

Hope everyone else has better luck!

For a specialist collector, any gift that he receives will almost certainly not be exactly what is needed for the collection, unless specific instructions are followed and fulfilled.

For a bullion silver or gold coin stacker, where specialist needs are not as important, a bullion Christmas / birthday gift of bullion may be quite appropriate. Perhaps the same may also apply for new Mint product.

Gave out a few of these gold Kennedy half dollars in chocolate. (Note the size of my hand.)
