Gulp. We like gold, too. Someday we hope to trade a portion of our silver into gold.

can't join the party no gold
why are the top left more yellow than the others?

[Mojofabulous]

Likely purity. The stuff on the right looks like older stuff that was meant for circulation so it will be mixed with other metal content.

Does 7.9 kg of tungsten count?

gold coins colour will depend on purity. a lot intended for circulation as mojo says will be typically .917 not 999 or even 800 with older coinage, saves losing the gold if its been made harder for usage. Just like junk 90% silver.

You can tell the alloy mix usually from its colour

An example would be British sovereigns are 917 and the Australian kangaroo or canadian maple are 999. You can see at a glance the difference.

I like gold for its portability but prefer silver for everything else

    thats some serious gold, check out mine, i love gold, im just too into silver to buy much more, and its pricey for my income as well..

[tommyk]

Au too...

[dave606]

I have some gold. I maintain about 20%. I always keep stacking silver, however when my percents get too far out of line i buy some more gold. I think silver is going to be the big play. However i do think you should have between 10%-20% gold IMO. If you have more than that, wait for the right arbitrage play and get more silver.

All I got to say is I like the pile of your rug
While I stack silver in large amounts I also keep buying a few ounces at a time of gold.Just cant help it.I like shiny things.

I am half half. As much as i love silver, we all know how manipulated it is. Assuming we lose that battle somehow, i want a good position in gold.

I am really having to be disciplined because I love some of the gold coins. I am trying to stick to silver for now and exchange the silver at some point for gold when the ratio comes way down. I traded eight 1 oz gold buffaloes and two 1 oz gold eagles and a little cash last year for a monster box of 1 oz silver coins. Recently, I just bought another gold buffalo. I just had to have one. LOL

I like gold, but I need to see gold to silver at least at 35:1 before I consider substantially beefing up my gold position (40:1 looks like a good spot to take a small bite).

I thought only "uncivilized people horded gold" say our good friend Charlie Munger! All I know is I want to be a barbarian!
Nice stack - love the gold - wish I had some!
