Haven't really thought about it much, and not sure it's needed, but a more general PM (precious metals) board would make more sense, and would likely gain more support. Lot of overlap there.
Anything would be nice to have...thanks!

This would be great and there is definitely overlap. I have traded with users on the silverbugs and pmsforsale subreddits who also trade here.

I would even volunteer to help moderate such a sub since I am fairly active. Not sure what qualification is required, but I am somewhat knowledgeable about this subject.

I'm a little unsure whether it could be considered a conflict of interest that you yourself are frequently selling / buying coins. Then again, I'd trust you, so that's probably a good idea.

Yeah, well, I'm gonna go build my own blockchain. With blackjack and hookers! In fact forget the blockchain.

Discussions are one thing, but wouldn't want to be in a situation where there could be accusations of tampering. Then again, trust already earned should alleviate most concerns.

Name it "Bitcoin and Bullion" ? ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) I echo the overlap, but I also think it's certainly a larger area than just Precious Metals, although that is what most of the coins' content makeup is.

Even if there's no sales in the sub, you might be tempted to moderate value estimations for specific coins that you intend to buy or sell. Just to make sure, I'd personally trust you, but I definitely see a potential conflict of interest.

A sub like that probably wouldn't require its own mod as it would likely require very little moderation inside it but there would be posts that needed to be moved there from elsewhere in the marketplace. And if people want to become mods report a lot of posts and you might get asked eventually.

I voted no...physical coins are stupid.
Just kidding!
I think maybe just a sub section under market place named "physical cryptos" or something like that. The physical market is pretty big and has a lot of very involved traders/enthusiasts.
While we are at it...how about a domains section also?
Marketplace -> Goods ->
-digital goods -computer hardware -physical cryptos -domains
Yes!!! Marketplace -> Goods -> Physical Cryptos / Coins (I'm not sure the word "Cryptos" is clear enough for newbies.) Regards, Me

I'm not sure I like the Precious Metals idea as much as Physical Cryptos / Coins. Sure, most coins are made of precious metals, but many aren't, including the latest Genesis Coin. I'd hate to exclude that one. It's fun. Regards, Me

I have a wallet made from wood by the people who made WoodWallets and I consider that to be a physical crypto item.

+1 to "Physical Crypto". Covers everything in the spectrum from printed to pressed, laser carved or hand etched. ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif)

Great idea. The threads that actually contain solid info (like Chainsaw's sale thread) are invisible to new users.
I'd hate to see a "Precious Metals" board with Casascius etc lumped in with them, because it'd get taken over by run-of-the-mill bullion stackers.
One subforum with maybe a couple useful sticky threads (moderated ones, even) at the top should be more than enough.
