Post Your Old Gold !

Poke around on the PCGS site. You'll find the story of a collector who submitted a complete set of $2.50 gold Indians. Each and every one was counterfeit.

I thought I would resurrect this thread to show my first and only old gold. I've always wanted an Indian Head Gold. The 2.50 was about all my budget could handle. I was also very very fortunate that Bill Jones was able to check this one out for me before I purchased it. I'm very happy to have this in my collection.

 

This is the only gold US coin i have. I got it raw almost 1 year ago.

 

Finally had these two imaged...



'dude

 

This arrived today.

 

I picked up a raw set of Indians, 2.5, 5 and 10 a few years back. Is there a good source to show counterfeits and how to tell the difference?

 

Best thing to do is start a new thread and post some pictures. There are quite a few good eyes on this series that will help you out @Whipps

 

I know someone who purchased 2 $2.5 gold indians from great southern coins raw. Should be be worried about their authenticity, considering where he got them ? I know that they are often faked.

 

GSC is known to sell cleaned and damaged coins. I'm not saying all are this but its not a good gambling game with them. But from my understanding their return policy is pretty easy.

 

Post some pictures and we will take a look

 

nice coins. where are the first 3 coin from country wise ? I wanna look them up in my Krause catalogs. thanks.

 

these are Spain 1/2 Escudos. almost dime size

 

I'll do it as soon as I get a chance. Thanks.

 

Thanks, that's what I'm starting to hear.

 

Beautiful coins, all, but I can't remember ever seeing an ugly gold coin. lol
Even gold with pic of Danny Trejo would be pretty. Well... ok maybe not.

 

I posted this in another thread, but it is old gold.

My most recent Indian purchase. The tribe is coming together.

 

There's two older gold pieces that I like. The first is the French 10 Franc Angel. My wife gave me one when I left for Viet Nam and I've carried it in my wallet since then. The second is the English Gold Sovereign, with Saint George slaying the Dragon, I like the design and have several of them.
