We had a few interesting auction wins this afternoon. For a change, the auction house allowed for same-day pickup. It wasn't a long drive, so that's what we did.

For $26 (plus 15%), we won two coin sets: • Five state quarters, • A 13-piece U.S. Mint Silver Proof Set from 2016.

The five state quarters are collectible, but I'm not a collector. They're only worth $1.25 to me. The other set has 1.473 troy ounces of fine silver (a second source says 1.33826 troy ounces) and is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity. At today's spot price, the silver alone is worth $35.35, so it was a good purchase. Silverrecyclers.com says the set sold for $52.95 when it was issued, and that "The 2016 S silver 13-piece proof set in its original government packaging is worth around $115."

Gold is $1,581/oz today. When it hits $2,000, it will be up 26.5%. Let's see how long that takes. - De 3/11/2013 - ANSWER: 7 Years, 5 Months
