A Mother's Heritage

*** This is a sponsored post.


We went to hubby's ancestral house (that's where he grew up and these days, any house built in the 80s or so is considered ancestral, right?) to celebrate his mom's birthday, my mother-in-law passed away 10 years ago, back then hubby and I were just a year into our relationship, but her family never seize to celebrate her birthday. It wasn't grand or anything, we just had lunch and dinner together and some sort of pica-pica in between, sis-in-law was the one who cooked and prepared the food and she did a great job, in case you wanna know. It was just your usual Sunday family gathering until my father-in-law brought down an old attache case from the masters bedroom, it's full of old silver and gold coins plus some really old bills. My husband never told me that his mom was a coin collector, her collection won't compare to those of professional collectors but just the same, the stuff that she had left behind are really valuable. None of her children, not even my father-in-law, follow on her footsteps, I guess, none of them have the talent, resource or time to do so, or it's just not their cup of tea, altogether. But we sure had lots of fun reminiscing where and when a coin was purchased or who gave it as a gift or how their mom got to have a hold on it, those sort of things, we almost build an entire day of conversation on that coin collection alone.


Truth, my curiosity was really picked, so I look online and I found out that collecting gold, silver and other metal coins and bars is a good investment and more and more people are getting into it. But buying gold is not as easy as it sounds, a person has to have adequate knowledge about it and because a huge amount of capital is on the line, one must really be careful on how to proceed. I found a site - Goldline International, Inc. - that assists investors and collectors on their endeavors by offering a full range of precious metals like silver and gold, in your choice of coins and bars, aside from that they also offer numismatic coins which is very in demand with collectors worldwide and they have been in business since 1960, I think years of existence in the trade won't be possible if they're not trustworthy. Under them, even safe storage and delivery won't be a problem as they offer a storage program and a direct insured delivery. I think it is a positive investment opportunity, if you have the money.
