    Well, happy birthday! When I was 27 gold was $200/ounce. I hope you score.

    Also there was that crazy dude, Jim Jones, who told 900 members of his "People's Temple" church to drink the Kool-Aid. Don't do that.

    Happy Birthday!

    When I was 27 I had 2 children with one on the way.
    I worked 60+ hours a week at two jobs and I loved every damn minute.

    Happy birthday! Enjoy being in your twenties! Wish I knew then what I know now :)

    You should get yourself a good 1927 or 1827 dated coin.

    Happy Birthday. At 27 I was married and had a 3 year old daughter. She is older than you now. Coin related, I also had a 13 piece type gold set all in first generation holders which included a 1907 $20 High Relief in MS61. Hope you find some good pieces at the coin shops.

    Enjoy your day.

    Happy Birthday. I can hardly remember 27.

    Happy Birthday you young whippersnapper. Happy hunting at the coin shops.

    Like ricko, when I was 27 gold was $43.00 per oz., $43.80 on my birthday to be exact. I was buying gold British sovereigns for $10.05. I remember arguing about the five cents and the dealer was paying the shipping. Those were the days to start stacking, wish I still had all those sovereigns, I still have one I only paid $15.00 for. Forty-nine years later I'm now older, smarter and a very happy fellow.

    Have a great rest of your day.

    When I was 27 Alta Vista was released to the public less than a week before my birthday!
    ...and I got to design the layout of the Alta Vista Travel Section.
    True story.
    Happy B-Day Enjoy 27!!!
