Yeah, the dollar is sucking right now, but how do you turn that gold into something you can buy a commodity with? That is what I don't understand. You can't convert it into currency if currency is in the tank like Venezuela.check eBay, or any coin dealer. There all over eBay. You haven’t seen one (pre 1964) because there not in general circulation. They have a silver value. Unlike the coins now (are worth nothing) not even the value of the metal they are made of. Silver and gold are going up and dollar purchasing power going down. When the dollar fails, which would you prefer? Also available are 1oz. Silver coin bullion. Gold is a store of value if you have “excess“Dollars . The value of almost all assets will go down with the dollar, but silver and gold have been the original “money” since the Romans. All else is just currency and everyone in history has failed on average every 40-50 hrs. We’re over due, and it’s happening. If you own gold and silver bullion and If nothing happens, then you have made money because gold and silver are going up (have been since 2008) but purchasing power of the dollar has gone down A lot.
I have a crap ton of old silver coins we got from FIL that passed away and threw his coins into boxes, lot of boxes over the years. Some may have numistic value as a collectors item, but when I posted some on here previously, I was told they would only be bought for the value of the silver. Pounds of Morgan Silver dollars and so on.
