“To be honest, I would not have bought when it was $1900.00, or even $1250, but its getting close to the point that I might buy.”
I bought silver between $11-$13/oz for two reasons: gold transactions are kept track of so 1) the feds can make you pay tax when you sell and 2) the feds know what you have and will take it when they say owning gold is illegal. Antique coins are not monitored, for some reason, so have a high premium.
I bought 1 ounce gold Krugerrands in 1992...Krugerrands are LEGAL currency. (1992 = $382.00 ea.)
