I had a wild phone call Friday while working.

Friends,

As I do different jobs and meet so many people I sometimes bring up my coin hobby. While working Friday I received a phone call from a person that I had done some remodel work for last year. He wanted my opinion on purchasing gold or silver.

Now he also added that he had $5000 now but wanted $5000 more in the near future. I told him he could get a little less than 4 ounces of Gold which will gain value gradually. My best opinion to him was to invest in Silver of which the same value would generate 140 ounces of Silver of which will gain more value to the dollar but to purchase at the best time. As the conversation went on we started talking on Bullion coins and on to silver and gold sets of different types.

I did him a little favor Saturday as I took a few sets to his house to view. He was very interested in set collecting for the enjoyment while still purchasing precious metals at the same time. I left him with a couple ANA magazines and a nice Heritage catalog with all the pics and realized prices. I let him know I would enjoy searching for the sets he was most interested in when he decided what he wanted to invest in. This new task could prove to be quite enjoyable. I never imagined building sets for someone else, this should prove to be a fun task.

HAPPY COIN COLLECTING
