Metals are a nice diversification tool. When everything is going relatively well, conventional things like stocks, real estate, and baseball cards tend to do well. When there's a massive black swan event, people rush to metals. So, it's not a bad idea to have some in the portfolio, in some form.

$20 gold pieces are an interesting combination of metal and numismatic value.

Correct. It’s not only about weight. The higher graded coins trade just like cards to me. The higher and rarer bring the premium, while bullion just sits for emergencies, at least in my case.

On Sept 24th when this thread was made gold was $3,768/oz

2 weeks later it's broken 4K ($4009 as I type this).

Analysts only a few months ago were predicting 4K gold by the first or second quarter of 2026. Earlier 2025 predictions were also blown past many months before they were expected to...crazy.
