Thinking a 1 ounce, and maybe a few lesser.
Gold is Gold, but Maple Leaf, Krugerrand, Eagle , or a John Wick ?
Some Silver too ??
Buffalo's, Heck even John Wick ?

Buffalo's, Heck even John Wick ? ![[Linked Image from cdn.silver.com]](https://cdn.silver.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/100-corona-austrian-gold-coin-au-obv.jpg) The 1915 restrike of the 100 Corona Gold Austrian Coins are usually the best deals on gold, because oddball (lesser known), yet contain just a hair under a full ounce of gold. They were quite popular in the US among gold bugs prior to ownership of gold bullion being legalized in the 1980s. They were legal before that time because they were actual national coins, so could be considered something for coin collections, which were never outlawed by FDR. This was a bit of a legal fiction, though, since they were produced (continually restruck with the date 1915) precisely to fit into this legal loophole. They are plentiful still, and typically very inexpensive, i.e., the premium over spot is usually quite small. Krugerrands are also among the better deals. For silver, you generally cannot beat junk silver, i.e., pre-1965 US dimes, quarters, and half dollars. Best deals for that are usually found at pawn shops, so just call around your local pawn shops.

fractional rounds. easier to actually use.

1822.86 for a 1 ounce Krugerrand Check out the 100 Corona coin jorge linked to above. MUCH better deal. You'd be nuts not to jump on that. Solid dealer, too, so no worries about fakes.

You gold hounds should be cautious. If your chatter prompts me to buy some the market will crash abruptly. Have a long history of such influence.
