That’s why usually financial advisors only recommend 10% (at most) of your portfolio be invested in precious metals. The other 90% should be in...
Lol that’s true! Although it doesn’t look like much when I realize how much I paid for them. o_O I could have got like 4 kilos (8.8 pounds) of...
Yeah that’s how I feel about it too. I just like that by law the gold has to come from America and dealers tend to pay a premium for AGEs over...
Lol I know exactly what you mean. xD Almost like if someone wrote a caption saying “Whatchu looking at?” below the Eagle’s head it would be...
Yeah I know what you mean. I think I like the reverse of the St. Gaudens Double Eagle the best out of all the gold coins ever minted in the US....
My 1 oz AGE (type 2) arrived today and I just wanted to share it with you guys and hear your thoughts and opinions. So what do you think? Do you...
I think there are some aureus coins with him on them too right? Like this one? I’m not sure if it was minted posthumously or not though. [ATTACH]

Thats what I was asking in the first place. I was asking if they were worth anything so I could decide if I should just spend them or not. If...
If you took a half disme into the bank back in the 1800s they wouldn’t give you gold or silver for it either ;).
Ah ok thanks. I wasn’t sure if maybe there was some industrial or scientific requirements that require .9999. For example this is the James Webb...
Yeah same here xD 1 oz of gold alone is expensive enough as it is. Then the Mint adds a hefty premium and the price goes through the roof. But I...
Oh yeah I know that I just meant is there any practical reason someone would need .9999 fineness? Or is .999 fine pure enough for anything?
Does anyone know if there is any difference between .999 and .9999 fine gold/silver? Like are there any industrial uses of gold/silver where .999...
I got an email from the Mint today advertising it. Limited mintage of 12,500. I like the obverse but the reverse reminds me too much of the Type...
