I have irrational thoughts of buying gold from time to time, but I can't find any reasonable solutions for *selling* gold. If I have a six-ounce lump of gold, painted matt green and kept on my mantelpiece between the tantalum and the bismuth, and gold is worth £500 the ounce, I have no idea where I can take the gold and exchange it for £2900 or more.
*heh*. oh, nuggets are pretty easy to sell, and they tend to be worth more than bullion. jewellers, mineral dealers, and specialty gold dealers buy/sell them. of course this didn't do people any good during the great depression because possession of gold became proscribed (though i guess that wouldn't happen again because our currencies are no longer tied to the gold standard).
i was thinking coins though because they're even more liquid.
