do you think the american eagle 5 gold coin would be worth buying... im kinda worryed about the size i cant tell how big or small it is. i mean i dont want to buy it if it is microscopic.. any comments about this coin would be great thanks for lookin bob
A 1/10 oz Gold Eagle is 16.5mm to help you judge size. Is it "worth it". Who's to say? That's something only you can answer for yourself.
Just for reference a dime is 17.9mm I'll post photos tonight of a $5 and a $10 next to a Quarter. I love both of my coins but that is my personnel preference.
I think they are cool-tiny, lol. I only own a 1oz age, and it is a little larger than a half dollar, but thicker
They are pretty and shiny! And you wont get much bigger a gold piece for about $70, so if that is your budget go for it! If you want to see a really microscopic gold coin, check out the gold fanams from India... they are about 3 mm or so across... they look like a small pebble, but are very amusing to own!
I think it would be worth buying a 2006 W uncirculated $5 or the 1997 proof $5 coin. Both are the lowest mintage in that series and will appreciate the most.
Sure do....but keep in mind that this years coin make 22 coins for the series thus far!! Will one satisfy you? I had to have em all.... Here's a pic.. RickieB
