OnlyGold has a 10 ounce minimum order though, places like APMEX and KITCO also have a good reputation.
You can get BURNED in places like eBay. I read the tale of woe of an investor who bought a dozen or so gold coins (at $750 a pop) and found them to be lead coins with gold paint on them. Particularly suspect is any eBay delivery from Asia. eBay is a good place to unload though as people there often bid higher than you'd get elsewhere.
A good real-world coinshop can have the coins also, and at a good price. You walk in, put cash on the table and walk out with your Krugs, Eagles or Maples.

Do you think the gold trade will cease when gold eases towards 1.500?
The 1980 price in today's dollars, inflation corrected, is in the order of $2.000 so 1.500 isn't that high.

Happy birthday 
As for gold, I prefer 1oz bullion coins. For silver, kilo bars (31.1oz) because I live in (metric) Europe.

Gold's appeal is nothing new. Since the dawn of creation, gold has been a store of value, a universal monetary substance, in all civilizations. Gold has united mankind regardless of race, religion or politics.
Gold transcends left-right politics because it's value is based upon ultimate economic truth and substance; rather than symbolic paper wealth, which rests upon a shaky U.S. dollar foundation.

Gold is at somewhat of a high point right now, not to say that it won't go higher, but be sure to make smart investments and realize the possibility that any investment, including gold can take a downward turn.

Now I'm imagining Wiccan sitting on a huge stack of silver bars, juggling bullion coins.
Next question:
Don't you need a safe deposit box in a bank to store that stuff? is hiring those expensive?
I suppose you could keep them in a safe in your home, or under your bed or in a biscuit tin on a shelf in your secret lab in the Bat Cave.
Don't answer this if you think it will compromise security. I don't want to be responsible for a crack team of ninjas raiding your sock drawer and getting away with your hidden millions.

A safe deposit box will be the safest way to store your valuable items, including precious metals. A typical safe deposit box at a big bank here in southern California will cost somewhere between $50 - $120 per year depending on size. I've also noticed that these deposit boxes are in very high demand, and it is often hard to find a local bank with any available!

You don't have to, but I do.

I wish. I'm into it deep, but deeply with a small investable sum.
I'm nowhere near rich, please realize that. If some of the above experts are right and a $15 silver Maple becomes a $100 silver Maple and a $850 gold Krug becomes a $2.200 Krug , I'd be a very happy camper though.
Gold and silver seem a good investment for many, but especially for the smalltime investor like myself it's attractive. It's uncomplicated, and remember gold and silver have been valued for thousands of years, while just about every currency and organization that has existed, has crumbled to dust eventually.

Fuck that, if all chaos breaks or banks crash I would not want my gold in some banks safe deposit box that will be the first place to looted/robbed.
And all you people buying gold might want some guns to protect it, if all breaks lose GUNS and AMMO will be worth more there weight in gold.

That is kind of what I was thinking too. I have a shotgun, a .45 , and some .22 .... But if the time ever came, I would love to have an assault rifle.

Then again our economy going to sh!t is a more likely scenario then world-war 3, and in that case gold would be better than guns..... unless you plan to rob peoples gold.

I have heard that if a bank fails and closes your safe deposit box may be unavailable to you for a long time?

Let's take this further. A preserved stock of food (lets say 6 months to a year) and high quality clothing and survival gear (good backpacking gear). There's more of course but you get the idea. In a crunch staying alive and healthy would be your most valuable asset.

Yes, and for trading with others (if the whole money system falls flat), I'd stock up on necessities and addictive items (coffee, cigs, candy).

The least one should have (and I mean the very least) is a weeks supply of food and drink for the family.
A months supply would be far better as hyperinflations typically last a few weeks.
