I would try to avoid eBay. Not because of fakes, (buyer protection has you covered on that) but because the prices are generally pretty bad. It may take a lot of searching before you can score a reasonable deal. Apmex is a good source, but sometimes if you're just buying a single coin, the shipping price can kill the deal. The best place to buy is usually a local coin shop. If there are none near you, perhaps try a pawn shop? Others could help you out with this better than I can.

As I said in the other thread avoid graded bullion. and try looking for British Sovereigns, French 20 Francs, Austrian 100 Coronaes or Mexican 50 Pesos

 

Thanks Dan, what gold peice would be the cheapest to got wetger foreign bullion are whatever.

 

Well the french 20 franc has .1867 of an ounce in it, the british sovereign has 0.2354 of an ounce in it. There is also a half sovereign with 0.1177 oz but i am not completely familiar with this coin and the premium on it. if the premium on a half sovereign is as low as on the regular British Sovereign, then that would be your best bet. all of the other coins are much larger (around 1 ounce). I recently bought a british sovereign for 3% over the spot price of gold, so it cost me right around $340.

I'm not completely familiar with some of these other foreign coins, (along with the half Sovereign) so it would probably be best if I let someone else help out here.

I have found the best prices to be at my local coin shops. One here in particular was only 5% over spot which you'd be hard pressed to match on the Internet, whether Ebay, APMEX, or otherwise. If you can afford it I would suggest a 1/4 oz over a 1/10 oz to avoid a super high premium.

 

Thanks for the link

 

Anyone try this? What is the price of their ASE's currently. I assume it would have risen with the price of silver.

 

I got a similar deal from Universal Coin and Bullion a few months ago. It was a good deal and they don't really bother you after you get the deal. They shipped within or faster than the time frame they provided, the coins were fine and were in air tites.

 

Ain't seen you around in a long dang time. Where in blazes you been hidin' your self?

 

Thanks Dan i got me a 2011 Gold American Eagle 1/10 ounce, my first gold peice.

 

Congrats! Very nice coin! If you can afford it, try to buy a 1/4 oz Gold american eagle next time. If not, just keep buying what ever you can afford. Like i said, I believe gold will rise high enough that the premium you paid won't matter much. Also, many believe that in the future, the gold american eagle will retain its premium, which means that when you go to sell it, you can charge a premium on top of its gold value too.

 

A very long story. I am going to go in detail on the other forum. It is good to be back and able to be online though. Thanks for the welcome back

 

Well, I must say i've missed you dear fellow.

 

Coingrads James, You just broke yer cherry. I see many more goldies in your future.

 

I get newsmax and I just did that order today as well. I can't wait to get my coins!

 

Did you get my PM I sent laat night

 

Also, try Gainesville Coins, I have been happy with their service so far. Their prices are a little less than APMEX and shipping is much less.
