Can you imagine a collector with the $200-$300 per oz. memories, looking at gold today !

My first ounce, a maple, was $1100
I have yet to buy gold...

I can't get myself to buy at todays prices.
...and doubt I ever will.

Things have certainly changed. This $20 has been sitting in my collection since I bought it when I was a kid (currently 69). Mowed a lot of lawns one summer to save up the money. Wish I had been able to buy more.

Fantastic!

I wish I had bought gold several years back when it was just pinch compared to today.

For the record, the Five Star Generals three coin set (2013) and gold Kennedy half dollar (2014) were my two temptations.

Dealers here are very happy importing and selling bullion coins. Been noticing lots of mint quality indian eagles. Uncommon here so they must be coming from another european country. Some banks are still emptying vaults? Or perhaps they are now crossing the Atlantic to Europe?
They are selling at bullion price. But I do not think it is to collectors.
