I have never bought silver or gold bullion, unless it was in the form of a collectible, regular mint issue, us coin.

Grace, basically you decided if you like Gold or Silver, then choose one of your favorites under the Gold or Silver section. So basically we know you like Gold or Silver and in one of its many forms. I thought this was the best way to kill 2 birds with 1 stone.

WD, if you can only choose one, would you buy Silver or Gold, would it be in coins or bars?

I think there should be an option for none of the above, because I never have (and probably never will) invest in bullion.

Most of my gold is in 1oz. AGE and Double Eagles.

Silver would be ASE, Maple Leafs, and Morgan/Peace Dollars.

95% of my "bullion" came from a U.S. Mint in the form of legal tender coinage.

Silver is much more interesting to me than gold. Gold's fine, but even in jewelry etc, I still like silver better. And yeah, it's nice that it's so much cheaper ;D

And I'd rather have 100 cheap base-metal foreign coins than one 1oz silver bullion "coin".

Conversely, I'd rather have one ancient Roman denarius, whose numismatic and historic value is far higher than the paltry amount of silver it contains, than ten silver 1oz bullion coins.
