At the current prices, I've stopped stacking and other than some currency, I completely stopped. I don't want to sell either. Its a tough place to be. Last time this happened in 2011 I completely stopped for 6 years and got all my astronomy gear. I'm going to just sit back and watch for a while I have enough coins that I'm happy.

It's a tough place to be  fully with you hfjacinto... Parts of my collection are more liquid than other parts, like it is easier to sell off more of what we collectors consider junk silver or gold worth at or just above melt. I still will continue to stack silver in literally any form because I have areas around that I can source silver at below melt prices and resell at a profit for other coins I may need for my collection. Other parts of my collection are silver and gold coins that are worth a bit more than melt, or have numismatic value more than the melt value, so more than likely I will hold onto those coins unless I sell off some of those to upgrade or add on in the future.  |

I am with hfjacinto. Neither buying nor selling at the moment.
But if gold drops significantly, I will buy more. If gold shoots to $10,000 tomorrow and the Dow sinks, I sell gold and buy more shares.

Luckily paper hasn't been affected yet so some good prices on paper.

"Paper" as in pre-War banknotes?

Are you not worried the banknotes will fade over time?

Are you keeping them in a dark box?

Are you keeping them in a dark box? I do. They are also in a safe and the sleeves are all made of Mylar which is archival grade. This is an old picture, I sold off a few of these and moved them all to new mylar. They were in hard plastic before which took up a lot of space. The slabbed are in a sealed plastic case.  |

Wasn't that long ago, but when gold was in the 2's, I thought a good target price would be around $3100. This would make gold an even $100/gm, an easy round number for jewelers who work with gold all day. $75/gm for 18kt and $58/gm for 14kt. And here we are today at $128 a gram.

$4300 looked like a spike and I sold. There may be higher spikes but that was good for this run.

It's been fun watching the metals spike in price. I love seeing it go up, but hate seeing it go down.
