First may I say, WHAT A SCORE! Now the question. After the coin show was over, did security walk you to your car?

Thanks for the support & comments ya'll. I really enjoy reading and looking at other PM hoards - stashes & acquisitions. Quote: First may I say, WHAT A SCORE! Now the question. After the coin show was over, did security walk you to your car? Thank you for the note. Actually, yes. The nice police officer DID walk me to my car. This is the first time ever I have asked for that. As we were leaving the show together, I bought her a beverage (Sprite) and we chit-chatted on the way to my car. I thanked her for her time and "protection". Ha!

Sweet!  How was the premium like for the fractional gold bars? Do they have a sort of collectible value?

Quote: Amaths: How was the premium like for the fractional gold bars? Do they have a sort of collectible value? The premium on the gold bars were fair. They were charging me $52 bucks a gram. No major sort of collectible value really. I just like to collect a few here and there. When I mix up all these little gold bars, they eventually come out to an oz  .

That's more in one buy than the whole value of most people's collections. Wow!

They will make a good addition to my JM and Engelhard silver collection. But who would say no to the Suisses at $52, which I believe is only a few cents over spot per gram. Well done!

Congratulation on your purchase. I'm most impressed w/ the gold coins. What year is that Panda, normal market price command larger premium than other "bullion gold coins". The Buffalo is a collector coin so the premium supposed to be higher than bullion.
Very impressive.

Thanks Silent! I could have invested more, but I'm still waiting on the sidelines (somewhat) with silver which is why I went heavy with gold this week/month. I think silver is still due for more correction/manipulation.
The Panda is a 2012 and he did charge a higher premium ($80 dollars) on top of spot. He wanted to charge me $1700 but I asked him knock off $20 bucks to make it $1680. For the Buffalo, he charged me $1680 (he wanted $1700). I was happy with both purchases as I believe gold will correct just like silver, and then make its next move up! (fingers & toes crossed)
