Precious Metal Prices

Hey guys I just spent about 2 hours sorting through my old coin collection and was surprised at how much it's valued at now. Back when I went through a coin collecting stage I loved collecting silver coins hoping that they would one day be worth something. I bought the collection for around $100-150 and it's now valued at $700-800. Looking at how these prices are rising so fast I'm looking at getting back into this game and making some more $ . I just can't believe how high the prices have gotten and I'm killing myself because I had a few chances to buy in bulk and could have easily made $2-3000 but I never thought it would have been worth it.

yeah i keep hearing about investing in silver and especialy gold, I was also curious which would be the better investment. I posted here before asking about goldline.com as i keep hearing its good to invest with them. I would imagine if u held on to your coins they would just keep appreciating

Personally I think silver will always be a better investment because the price of gold is so high already that the turn over rate is lower then silver. Many recommend that you invest in silver first and then slowly work into gold but I will probably just stick to silver its cheaper and I think it will rise faster than gold. And if the economy ever drops bottom silver and gold will be the only form of currency for exchange and silver is a lot easier for small exchanges then gold is.
