"COIN METAMORPHOSIS" Here's My Annual Gold Coin I Bought This Year With Clad

best-1.jpg



I cashed in my loot at the bank and kept enough money to purchase a limited "GOLD PENNY" struck at the Canada Mint in celebration of the last year we produced pennies. No more pennies will be minted. It's been a long time coming. I have been collecting gold coins for the past 20 years or so. Before gold sky-rocketed in price, I could purchase a gold coin with just the pennies I dug up, hence the term "COIN METAMORPHOSIS" or turning copper into gold.


Below are some of my gold coins purchased in the past.

I have included in the above photo a Roman coin, purchased with the old 1810-1070 Ceylon for $73.00, back when gold was much cheaper per ounce.

Oops. ...kids can grab. After all to them it's just change. I can save it for other more valuable coins. My wife wants me to save for vacation. Lol
