Stay away from a 1 gram. The premium is to high and it is just tiny, no need to own IMHO.

Pretty solid advice. I'd go with the majority of posters. The Morgans present better upside. Silver has a long way to go before it reaches its historic ratio with gold.

Nothing beats a nice high quality Morgans IMO. And hands down I would take ten nice Morgans today, even though I would have took the gold a year ago. Graded pref, if not o.k. as well. Coins well over a hundred years old still in nice shape, a special thing as most if not all were circulated an used, via clanked around in pockets, etc....

I feel people will always pay a solid premium for a nice high grade Morgan with either a blast white appearance great color or a real key date or error or something along those lines.....

I would say go for the Morgan dollars, unless they are really worn. The Maple Leafs are nice coins and it's pretty cool to have a 9999 pure coin, but getting Morgans at spot price isn't common these days. Also, there is strong belief there will be a higher upside on silver than gold. I would definitely get the Morgans.

we'll see what he has tomorrow. Ill make a new thread about what I got. And I believe he has some nice Peace dollars too. And also he has all sorts of gold coins that are probably from the $100-$1800 dollar range. So ill see what he has.

The nice thing about the Morgans is that it is possible to sell a few of them if you need some cash. With the 1/4 oz. gold coin, you have to sell it all to get cash from it. Might never be a problem but if it was, the Morgans would allow you to sell some and keep the rest.

I like silver a lot and have a good amount of it. Because I have no gold at all, the gold would be pretty tempting.

Good plan. Working with what is available is also part of collecting PMs. In a lot of cases, I have a few things in mind when I shop for PMs. I like to keep an open mind, though, because the things on my possible buy list may not be available when I am in a buying mood. Substitution is perfectly fine with me as long as what I get is of good quality and fits nicely into my over-all collection scheme. Good luck on Tuesday!
