    I bought an American Eagle, a Buffalo, and a 1924 St. Gaudens $20 Double eagle. I was a little afraid of buying them at that price, but am glad I did now. Just have to figure out when to sell!!

    $338 in ... 2004 or 2005? I made three rings, and kept the rest.
    There is no real urgency to sell it, but who knows?

    I have some but did not buy it recently. I sold some at $700 an ounce, and some at $385 an ounce (ow).... I'll sell some at $1000 an ounce but sit on the rest (I have about 10 oz)

    I bought some a few years back and boy am I glad I did!

    If I were a mean sort of person, I'd be laughing at all of those folks who dismissed investing in gold as a flash in the pan phenomenon.

    that doesn't sound right



    the day my son was born i went and bought me and the wife matching necklaces mine has a 25 dollar gold piece hers has a 10 dollar gold piece with diamond cut rope bezels and solid rope necklaces, mine weighs 55 grams with the coin, not sure what hers weighs, but i gave 700 for both

    {yes i know the necklace, and bezel are only 24k}

    Bought a little at $300/OZ. "Diversifying my portfolio". Wish to hell I'd bought a lot more!

    I was given a significant quantity when I was born. It's in a safe deposit box. I'm not even sure exactly what size (they are about the size of a domino) but there are about 25.

    Price is down to $735 a bit ago.

    Seems to jump around like a mexican jumping bean.....same as the rest of the stock market.

    May as well put your money on the craps table in vegas as the odds are nearly as good when you don't have full control of it..perhaps. [?]


    At least in vegas you get a free drink to help wash down the news Good or bad

    You could blindfold me if ya want.lol I promice i'd never give-up your claim location.
    Ya allways start out with the pan, to find some good hi-grade. Then after you run the 2" dredge for a wile you clean the miners moss or whatever your using and BACK IN THE PAN IT GOES... funny how it all starts and ends with the ol'pan![;)]
    I got strong back and have been in the "SHOVELING/Moving dirt bizz for a loooong time. Be nice to visit Australia and maybe make a buck in the deal.
    I actually have an ol friend up Queensland/Bondi way. Be nice to see her again too...[;)]

    fish,i`m not capable of using the pan,shovel or my little dredge with my neck at the moment. when my necks operated on and if it fixes me i`ll be going and looking again [}:)] it costs $12 for a fossicking licence here in my state, and as i said, theres no tax payable to the government on gold when you find it..it`s yours to do with as you want.
    if you want to come here i can show you the creeks to go looking in,but i can`t help you mine just now.the gold in the creeks here assays out to 22 to 22 1/2 carrat so its fairly pure. in my state its alluvial and reef gold...not many nuggets like there is in victoria,queensland and especially west australia.
