Maybe it was 1970's and 1980's. I remember dealers like Deak Perrara -- I always wanted to stop in -- had electronic signs advertising the...
Just curious....if the price of gold dropped in a few weeks/months, what price level would cause you to consider buying a full-ounce ?...
Size-wise, the bigger coin is just SO much nicer to look at aesthetically. You really can't see much at first glance looking at a Quarter or...
I could be wrong, but I believe banks in NYC/Manhattan used to do that in the 1960's and 1970's. Like currency, too.
Would you buy a fractional or full-ounce ? Any particular coin, like maybe a Double Eagle ?
That's a pretty wide bid-ask spread....at that rate you are talking $200 on a $4,000 gold coin ? Anybody know what years these were minted and...
What's with the $6 "discount" being subtracted from the silver price ? It's not something by my LCS....I think it's the refiners not wanting to...
I got quoted $38.....the $6 "discount" to the silver price before the multipliers hurts pricing. :(
My LCS and others from what friends are telling me is taking spot silver and knocking off 10% ($6) before you get to the silver calculations. If...
I'm going later today and will report back.
Recent Auctions: A few nights ago at GC a 1928 Saint MS-65+ w/CAC went for a total cost (with bp) for $4,570. That's only a 12% premium for a...
Was the coin graded and holdered ? I can't tell from the pic. To me, unless you're buying dozens or hundreds and it adds up, I think paying a...
Putting all your eggs in 1 asset class....a new one at that....which is highly volatile and pays no interest or dividends....borders on reckless, IMO.
Any LCS or coin show will probably come close to your price. But with gold at $4,050 give-or-take and taking into account the 0.9675 ounce...
You can't beat stocks over the long run. Gold and gold coins are just something to have as disaster insurance and/or to have fun holding in your...
Chinese labor costs double every 8-10 years...or less. :wideyed: As their labor force shrinks by 30% the next 30 years, Chinese wages will...
I presume you are talking about the more common Saints, right ? They probably lagged on the upside price-wise and saw their premiums come in once...
It won't hurt, but it's not a magic elixer. Energy costs are much more important and we have a huge advantage there over all but the MidEast...
Actually, the best insurance up to about the mid-1990's against inflation was small-cap stocks !! :wideyed:
It's not as simple as you would like, Eric, though I see where you are coming from. Unless we have hyperinflation or something like that,...
