Papaya, so now you are back to collecting silver coin won't that makes you a boy again? If you want I'll tell you stories about people burying gold and silver coins with them in the coffin when they go. At least you should know about the traditioal Chinese funeral ritual where gold paper were burned for the purpose of transmitting (like energizing in Star Trek, couldn't think of a better description) them to the world in afterlife for the deseased. That is one use of fake gold. Anyway, all assets have their glory days and for gold and silver they have their glory days in the 70's. No one can guarantee their glory days will come again next year or next life. You are just speculating, just like you don't know if the world is coming to an end in Dec 31, 1999 (which kind of makes the Y2K issue a non-issue really).
