I have a weakness for gold. Much more fun finding 62's around melt plus a little then buying modern AGE's. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Don't forget First Strike designation for those still in mint sealed boxes.
As others have said it matters. I never bought any that did not have the matching cert. In fact the certificates alone sell for up to $100. I...
Not a special one either but at melt plus $20 so perfect for me. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
My vote is for the American Gold Buffalo in Proof and Reverse Proof. Stunning coins.
Looking forward to seeing this new add soon. Needed a No Motto $10 St Gaudens and this fit right in.[ATTACH]
Great write up and I like your newps. Congrats.
I have the Packers preseason game on. I came across this post. As soon as I saw that obverse I was reminded of the Broncos defeat of the Packers...
I agree with sending them back. You may want to stick to already graded gold. Depending on the date and grade many are not much over spot. By...
Same reason I stopped collecting Proof SAE's. After a few years a couple turned cloudy. Headed to Pre-33 gold at that point and never looked back.
I tried looking up AGE's and Buffalos. Almost no supply. There was a time you could pick every year. People must be sitting on these.
Looked like current ASE's (if they even had any in stock) were about 15% higher ($36 for 69 and $46 for a 70). If you go back to the earlier...
I did update the post to say about 15-20% now but it will be interesting to see what the premium is comparing 69 and 70 V75 Gold and Silver.
I will say after taking a quick look at APMEX, the premiums have come down. They seem to have very little in stock. The premium looks to be...
It is not new. Any 70 has always brought a far higher amount more than a 69. That is PR or MS. It is why bulk submissions are sent in by the...
Added a Dahlonega recently and now watching for a nice Charlotte and CC. Thanks for sharing.
I would like to give you 4 likes. That is a cool date set. Is that your birth year? :)
Depends on the coin. I usually look at auction prices more then price guide. There are many gold coins that are way off in the price guides...
This one helped complete my Liberty Double Eagle CAC type set. Now I just need to watch for one in a 63/64 grade.[ATTACH]
I have also read about some coins (gold for example) that were sent to PCGS in NGC holders knowing ahead of time they would downgrade.
