    Sure would be nice. I guess I have one on my 'want list', but I am in no danger of being able to pay for it.

    How about a 0% interest payment plan? $500/month for 15 years!

    That'll almost cover it. Still need to factor in shipping image

    The problem with these large sized bars is they are not easily sold when you want to sell them. It is not like you can cut off a chunk of it and take it into your local coin shop. That is why I like AGE's - if I wanted to, I could just piecemeal them out. Also think of the tax implications of selling such a large chunk of gold, it has to be reported to the IRS.

    Agree. It may be neat looking but 100 AGE's is more practical even if they are slightly more expensive per ounce than the gold bar.

    Worry is the interest you pay on a debt you may not owe.

    It would be neat to see it pictured next to a 100oz bar of silver.

    It would be noticably smaller since gold is denser than silver.

    I'd rather have 100 1oz gold bars. Best of both worlds. Small sizes so the reporting isn't an issue and you're not paying as big of a premium as you will with AGE's.

    Don't forget that when you sell the bars, they will bring less than the AGE's.

    No big deal because I will have paid less for them.
