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.
