I'd buy Silver, not Gold.

While I've got a very small amount of Au around, it's in very small denominations. 1/10 is the largest I've got. It's also available in grams FYI.

Now silver, that's another story. "Junk" coins are great. I've been collecting them for years. 1 oz rounds are very convenient. I've been buying a couple a month for the last decade or so.

Dollar cost averaged my 'price' is still pretty reasonable.

My family's "Inflation/Disaster Hedge" is similarly invested. A little gold squirreled away, and only little 1/10th-oz coins; but Junk Silver by the bag.

I didn't know that gold could be bought by the gram, though. Useful info, thanks.

(Shrugs). As mentioned above, as long as silver is only 6 times as common as gold, yet costs only 1/66th as much, I think it's still reasonably priced!
