1. The second, as at least i can always have the face value off of them
2. Platinum
3. gold or old coins, old coins can only increase in value
4. Number 2. It has long story to tell.
5. None of the above Gold is a bad investment with a historically low rate of return just barely above inflation. IF I HAD to pick I'd say gold coins. The fact that they are in coin form means they have some value other than just the gold. If they are a gold limited edition proofs made by a GOVERNMENT they will have a collectors value which will cause the value to rise faster than just the value of gold.
6. 2 in Cass all the computers crash in the distance nuclear war whatever
7. The choice of what to buy is always yours, but the main concern is how much can you afford to buy. OK, just picking a choice I will go for the first choice but pretty sure it won't be more than a choice,can't afford right now.
8. I would pick the coins, because they would be the most interesting and have the most history. I could research the culture they came from and display them. They might not be as valuable as the other options, but they have the most character.
9. Platinum it is the best investment.
10. Gold & Old Coins. They not only hav ethe value of the gold...but as collecter items they will usually increase in value. To get a good return on either bullion or platinum, you would need to purchase large quantities, but a few rare & valuble coins can bring in a nice little return. Good luck.
11. Gold bullion since it is oldest
