HappyHippo Valued Member United States 266 Posts	Posted 07/24/2021 5:14 pm I get frustrated. Although I buy mostly bullion, I also collect the occasional semi-collectible bullion series, like the Congo gorilla set. They sell for just over or at regular bullion prices. I' m up-to-date on the gorillas but I find on some other sets I forget or didn't see a particular entry in a series. Then I'm trapped because I have an incomplete series. I would only be able to buy the missing entry on ebay or something like that at a much higher price. Luckily, I hardly ever do that despite my OCD making me want to have a complete set. Have you guys encountered that? Or maybe you do a better job of monitoring your collection. Report this Post to the Staff

Wouldn't matter if you have complete sets or not. Or will instead, will direct you to a coin dealer, who will still offer you the same sort of general terms. That has been my experience, anyway.

HappyHippo Valued Member United States 266 Posts	Posted 07/24/2021 11:28 pm I'm not collecting the series to sell them..God willing, I have no intention of selling them. I don't have any other vices, so why not. Maybe the issue will be my son's when I am gone. I told my son that he'd be best to sell these semi-collectible coins to collectors, not lcs. But you are right, I have no illusions that bullion coins with cool animals on them are still bullion. So I still get frustrated when I am missing one coin from a series.
