No, they sell bullion coins in the AGE American gold eagle which are 22K and the Gold buffalo's which are 24k both contain one troy ounce of gold.
Both Denver and San Fran were striking coins sans mint mark during that time. You can look up mint records to see who was striking what...
Not all of them have that dip in the denticles, I noticed the dip while looking through coins last night but then found a few that didn't have it....
Yes fakes are incredibly common Many fakes are made of actual gold though. And how did the denticles under the date seemingly disappear in the...
Also what is going on where I put the red circle on the reverse? Is that a spot where another color metal is showing through?[ATTACH]
I'm in agreement with @jwitten, the more I look at the images the more I'm thinking it's a counterfeit. Although I'd still like to see clearer in...
Not a proof imo (the proof mintage was 154). The coin does look funny but maybe that's just the picture making the surfaces look strange like that...
Top right is definitely a 23' imo also.
Probably pretty good as there is still no apparent ordering limits per account. Imo a big mistake by the mint as it sets up a perfect situation...

I've noticed premiums in general are down, I think it's a symptom of weak demand across the board. Heck I've even been able to score under spot or...
Picked this up, she's old enough and the cost differential is great enough that it doesn't really bother me that someone gave her a wipe in the...
I've seen plenty of 1965 half's where the clad copper color really isn't visible on the edge, especially on the 65' SMS coins.
It's simply a matter of circulation and wear.
You can still see the '1' last digit based on the angle of view. As other's mentioned likely struck through grease and no added value beyond face...
Based on the first set of photos I voted 'no'. The second set of photos appear to show some of the frost better but aren't really even close to...
Looks even worse now with gold reaching $1250 the price moves to $1690
I've also noticed this to be the case. Even with conservation that spot where the FG is on the reverse won't disappear at best it will simply...
See my post right above yours that I quoted it includes the price and a link to the pricing chart.
