If your going to buy either, gold or silver, please consider this,,,,Coins are not a good investment, the reason why is, they are an emotional buy, they're pretty and they have nice printing on them, they also, cost more. If you are buying ask and compare the price of what used to be called a Miner's Bar, now referred to as a Prospector Bar. Same gold or silver content as the coins, spot price+ It may save you some money.AND Don't buy Gold Certificates, I heard the companies are selling Certificates with out the physical gold to back it up. You should have physical possession of your gold or silver. No Storage with the company that sold it to you. Just some thoughts. not connected to the metals industries, just from previous experience. BTW NO Futures Contracts.......

It is good to own both. I prefer Eagles because they are legal tender coinage with a fixed one dollar value and recognized anywhere. Bars are easily counterfeited and there is adulterated silver being bought and sold. With an Eagle, you don’t need an assay.

Why are you mixing dollars, ounces, bars etc? Why not show ounces of gold?

I agree and it will only get worse coming into the federal election this fall. The Lieberals have to know they are in deep shit and are going to get ousted in a landslide (barring voter fraud)and my opinion is they will go into scorched earth mode in the remaining months before the election. I believe this is part of it. It wouldn't surprise me to learn that the vast majority of this gold is being bought up by lieberals with inside knowledge they were going to do a sell-off.
