    Proclamation of the Irish Republic, 1/4 ounce €50 Gold Proof Coin from 2016. 1916 Remembered: 100 Years of the Proclamation. 
    I think a few other forum members might also have one after the recent deal 😄🤣

    Here are the oldest and some of the most interesting coins in the stack. 
    A 1793 8 reales, which has seen better days, but has also seen extensive circulation, especially in the east, as evidenced by its many chop marks.
    An 1853 gothic florin is probably my favorite coin, of all the ones I have.  Some day I'd like to upgrade it to a full crown.  (as soon as I find that winning lottery ticket I seem to have misplaced)

    Don't know, not far yet, I'm guessing. But many businesses were completely shut down, and jobs were lost, instantly. Now the gov't has literally printed trillions, and are likely to do even more.
    The full consequences have yet to be seen or understood, but they were set in motion instantly.

    Now I'll amaze you all with the absolute best coinage photography you've ever seen.  I call it "abstract coin art".  New York's Museum of Modern Art called me and they're interested.
    So I've been slowly completing the stack/collection of Mexican Onzas/Libertads, and added a 1991, '92, '93, and '94.  A '95 is on the way. The goal is to have one from every year they've been minted. A couple of these have some tarnishing.  By contrast that the '93 has a slight smudge area but otherwise is amazing to look at. The detail and consistent satin finish is wonderful. The camera doesn't do it justice at all.  (They're all pretty nice, really)
    Also added yet another 5 peso gold coin, and yet another roll of BU dimes.
    (sorry guys, I simply cannot photograph coins to save my life.  I actually blame all of it on the camera, and the sun, and the room, and whatever else besides myself)

    RacerCool got a reaction from Tn21 in Your gold story. How it happened.   
    I started as the poor man stacker years ago: I'd get a few silver coins here and there as I was able, to add to the tiny collection of silver dimes and quarters I might find in change. And I mean it was the poor man's way, by buying $1 face whenever I could.
    Gold wasn't even a dream. No one like that can reach high enough to pay off his debts, let alone buy gold! But a few years ago I was finally in a position to pay down most of my debt, and begin buying gold. And since then I've been building a gold stack as well a bigger silver stack.

    Glad to hear it mate and long may it continue. Releasing yourself from the bondage of debt should be a priority for everyone. Except in extreme circumstances all debt is optional.

    He might be the same one I heard who said that nearly 20% of all known above-ground gold is held by central banks. There are also Bullion banks who lend based on gold and silver deposits. 
    So to answer another question, yeah gold really is the world's money. I mean the money of the wealthy and the elites. It's only the rabble, the commoners who use their monopoly money.
